This movie is one of the best Christmas movies this year. The cast was simply amazing. Gladys Knight singing in any movie is great but to have her singing Go Tell It on the Mountain and say the line When Jesus Christ was born. Is something that we never hear in movies and was perfect. Jessica Lowndes and Paul Greene were perfect together the song at the end I love. I will never understand why Paul never sung before in any of his movies he was a beautiful voice. The story was so good every one goes to New York in hopes of making it. Hope that GAC makes a sequel of this movie with the whole cast returning.

The story is about a struggling performer who has reached the crossroads of deciding to abandon her dreams if she doesn't succeed by the year end. Chloe agrees to help put on a neighborhood show produced by Cora (Gladys Knight). The execution of the story has some rough moments and lacks depth. It relies on many of the formula Christmas tropes including "do you like like him?" The story even contradicts itself in the conclusion. The acting is fair to poor. The dialogue is flat. Lowndes and Paul Greene have chemistry but it is not infectious. There are no great highs or lows or real surprises. Lowndes sings several times through the movie, mostly in brief snippets. It seems like many movies Lowndes appears in that the movie is mostly an excuse for her to sing. Greene should not quit his day job. Both of these actors have moved from Hallmark to GAC Family and GAC seems to realize that Lowndes is an asset the more they allow her to sing. The conclusion is the show and does include multiple performances including Gladys Knight. The story and romance are just one more among many. The singing raises the movie above that but only marginally.
