The two main characters are sweet and connect. I would have like to see more of them together doing something other than making out.
The movie suffers from a low budget and some clumsy transitions. The pathetic and awkward lives of the characters in the beginning went on a bit too long even if there were a few funny moments in that. Beth went from spineless to confident and back again with too little justification. The plot was thin and relied a bit on overused tropes.
I've never seen April Pearson before but I was suitably impressed. Despite the flaky character she had to work with, she had definite moments where you really wanted to see more.
The dialogue didn't mess around. Characters said things without holding back.
I wouldn't call this a Christmas movie, but rather a movie set at Christmas time.
Despite any complaints above, the movie was OK.
