عيد الميلاد معك

Horrible script with a horrible director who clearly can't help navigate to make the script seem fluid. Choppy and dull I feel bad for Aimee Garcia who is a great actress that she had nothing to work with. This flop falls 100% on the director who made each scene look so forced. I'm just going to avoid everything Gabriela Tagliavini directs. I wonder if after putting a bad movie together if a director notices before it gets released or if it's the comments later that open their eyes. Either way I hope this is either a massive learning opportunity to create growth or at least a huge pivot into something else. I have never written a review on a tv show or movie and this one was so bad I created this account just for this!!!

Christmas With You is a 2022 festive romantic comedy starring Aimee Garcia and Freddie Prinze Jr (in his first comeback). The story tells the tale of an international pop star named Angelina(Garcia) who is fed up of the showbiz life and escapes to another state where she meets a young girl named Cristina(Desa Monique Cruz) who is a super fan of Angelina's. All that's about to change when Angelina meets Cristina's dad Miguel(Prinze Jr) and starts to fall for him. But will fame get in the way or will they find a way to get together in the end?. If you seen Marry Me with Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson then you probably know what is going to happen. Predictable but cute. Plus it was great to see Freddie Prinze Jr again after not seeing him in anything in so long.

Wow, some quality acting with Freddie and the actress from Lucifer who are layer the pop star. Definitely a cut above most of these cheesy Christmas movies. Don't get me wrong-I love them-but this had more authentic relationships and enjoyed the quince dance and Latin traditions. The daughter was adorable and loved the dad/daughter relationship. Catchy music. Good hearted jokes at some of our celebrity culture vs what's real. Still very predictable but who cares. Just a fun and heartwarming and entertaining escape! I hope they make more of these Christmas movies. Some are just so bad, they're not watchable.

This is a romantic drama not really a comedy. The main character, the aging pop starlet who is no longer relevant, she's wearing these big hoop earrings so ridiculously large there should be a parakeet sitting in one of them nibbling on her ear. There are a few elements of comedy here and there but overall a more serious tone. As far as these types of movies go, this one does have a lot of Christmas stuff and the decor and feel reinforces that. But the sorrow and loss kind a cancel it out. Not the worst holiday rom type movie tho and nice to see Freddy jr. The managers oxen style nose ring was another distracting jewelry choice. Does she ever take that out?

Angelina (Aimee Garcia) is a popular pop star who is now feeling her age. She needs a new song for an event but is drawing a blank as far as inspiration goes. She sees a video of a young fan, Cristina (Deja Monique Cruz), whose birthday wish is to meet her. Empathizing with Cristina's longing for her departed mother, Angelina decides to grant the girl's wish. Cristina's father, Miguel (Freddie Prince Jr), is a music teacher who happens to be composing a song that piques Angelina's interest. They develop feelings for each other while collaborating on the song. This is another tropey, thus predictable, story. But there is something comforting about watching a familiar story unfold. It's like watching different versions of The Nativity, A Christmas Carol, Les Miserables, etc. Each version brings a different take on a classic tale. This version of the aging-celebrity-finds-inspiration-and-love trope is brought to life by a likeable cast. It was a treat to see Freddie Prince Jr again. The process of composing a song got me engaged as it made me curious about the finished product which did not disappoint. All in all, it made me feel good, which was what I was hoping for when I watched it.

This is a completely by-the-numbers Christmas RomCom. Except that someone forgot the comedy. You can easily predict every turn in this movie because you have seen this story many times before, just with different characters. The acting for most of the characters is somewhere between passable and good. BUT, Aimee Garcia brings a real charm to the role and makes the movie worth watching for her performance. I liked her for the role she played in Lucifer and this proves to me that I should start looking for her in other roles. I really would like to see her in another movie as the lead (or co-lead) that has a much better script to see what she can do with that.
