    Rubbish

    Started watching lasted about 10 minutes couldn't believe what I was watching in the short time l watched the innuendos thrown in. For christmas 24 it just seemed weird they would show such rubbish don't know what they were thinking. They are normally harmless film's which make you smile but this film was a cringe a minute. They should stick to what they know which is good entertainment and fun for all the family. The film did look a bit false and from what I saw didn't really make any sense. Luckily you can turn off which was advantage in our case too put us out of our misery. Make sure you give this a miss.

    A PG 13 alternative to Hallmark movies

    This is a Hallmark movie at its core, but it has some adult jokes peppered throughout. The guy from Reno 911 and The State steals the show as local broadcaster Dick Mountain. I saw some reviews making it look like it's crude language throughout, and it's not at all, just here and there and sometimes it's nice to take a break from the ever sugary G rated Hallmark movie. It's got a good cast, some nice outdoor snow mountain scenery that is not Vancouver for a change which is all you see with Hallmark (although Vancouver is beautiful)- filmed in New Mexico. It's also a spoof of sorts on 80s ski resort movies. Overall if you like Hallmark but are looking for something just a bit less sugary, you will like this. Don't overthink it.

    Gross, with some good actors.

    I was hopeful for another decent holiday movie with comedy and charm, a great plot line and some romance.

    What I got?

    More than 40 dick jokes and a deep concern for one of the child actors. Never in my life would I have expected to hear a child be forced to say "would 6 inches make you happy, mommy?".

    GROSS.

    Was this supposed to be a parody? What was the point of this movie? To humiliate Malin and Amy? A waste of money and resources as far as I'm concerned. For anyone trying to avoid chauvinistic movies with dick innuendoes every 2 minutes- don't waste your time with this film.

    If a parody this was to be, you missed the mark entirely.

    No redeeming qualities

    I started watching this show because it has several really good cast members. However, it seems that they all needed a quick pay check and agreed to do this movie without looking at the script first. I was really hoping that this would be one of the really good Hallmark type movies like Ex-Mas. However, this movie is so shallow, unrealistic and stupid that none of the characters are worth caring about. I think that the actors tried their best, but either low funding, bad locations or bad directing has crushed their efforts. There are hundreds of really good Christmas rom/coms. This is NOT one of them. Do yourself a favor and skip this one.

    Should have an "R" rating for language

    So in the first 3 minutes the female lead yells "S**T!" and then "OH MY GOD, OH MY GOD" half a dozen times. Several minutes in we hear "Not a chance in H**l" and then her sister starts with the "OH MY GOD." Whoever the writers are needs to broaden his/her/their vocabulary and knowledge of proper English that would be appropriate for a Christmas movie that (assumedly) children will be watching. The female lead character is a spoiled, arrogant, entitled and thoroughly hateful brat--so nothing at all "nice" or uplifting about this pile of detritus. First thought is "Well the children won't be watching this," and second thought is that the exclamation "S**T" in the first few minutes is a very suitable description of this film. Turned it off at 20 minutes in. An offensive waste of time.
