Give credit where credit is due. This movie is of course one of Hallmark's better storylines - BECAUSE IT ISN'T THEIRS. They stole it from the real people who traversed together in a van from Orlando to Knoxville and documented it all on video and tiktok. What a shame too. Even going as far as stealing direct scenes and dialogues "I'm here for the snacks" come on. I rated it a 1 because while the storyline is amazing, Hallmark pulled the rug out from under the people whose story it actually is. If nothing else, I will keep this as a 1 based on morals and principles. The blatant theft is astounding. The "writers" and everyone, even the actors and execs, should be ashamed.

Holiday Road ended up being far more enjoyable than I expected...especially when it started with an annoying influencer. There is tons of humor as these nine strangers end up renting a van to travel between Portland and Denver when their flight...in fact all the flights get cancelled due to inclement weather. It was fun to watch their initial interactions as strangers and then see them slowly make connections as their stories are revealed. Lots of humor and great dialogue are peppered throughout helping this be one of the more enjoyable Hallmark holiday movies...which was less about romance and more about connections and making friends. I loved how they had fun, helped each other out and eventually came together to prevent someone from spending Christmas alone. I think Hallmark holiday movie fans will eat this up. This is a recommendation from me to them. #olddognewtricks "helped, heard or hugged?"

A production from Hallmark that actually made me laugh & cry,was thinking they finally got decent writers or at least for this movie. However the way it looks Hallmark without credit or compensation for those involved,took a story that happened to a group of passengers & just ran with it. Of course for tv purposes there was changes for the individuals or interactions,between the van riders. Now as usual the cinematography was decent & any music,didn't overwhelm the dialog with any actor. The casting was perfect & enjoyed the acting,was a fun looking trip.. I wouldn't mind experiencing this,lol. Worth a watch but keep in mind,what I mentioned above.. Do better,Hallmark!

I thoroughly enjoyed this Hallmark Christmas movie. It was a complete surprise that I enjoyed the holiday movie so much. Initially, I thought it was going to be a movie full of calamities and problems. Yet it was not overly sweet and sappy. I loved that the characters were of various age groups as well as different ethnic groups. As I got to know them, the characters grew on me and even felt that I knew them. Throughout, I was hoping for a congenial ending to the movie. Amazingly, this is one movie I would love to watch again and hope it comes around again. Now I am curious about the cast. So, I intend to look up the backgrounds of the actors and actresses in IMDB. Thanks Hallmark!

Heartwarming, feel good, nostalgic, funny, festive, and absolute holiday perfection. Hallmark really hit every mark with this movie. Honestly in my opinion it was the best Hallmark Christmas movie that I have seen in years and I couldn't run to amazon fast enough to purchase it and be able to watch this many times more during this and every future holiday season. Between the storyline, cast, and character progression it really pulls on the heartstrings and shows that the best adventures are often the unexpected ones. Hallmark obviously stepped outside of their typical holiday storyline in a way that is fun and refreshing while still maintaining their touching and uplifting motif that we have all become to know and love. Absolute job well done by everyone involved in this project and a sincere thank you for being a part of bringing this to life.

I need someone to put the Jingle Bells karaoke scene on YouTube. I wish it were longer. The husband could barely speak English but he rocked that song like a native son!! Hilarious!!! I keep rewinding to hear it again!!! Other than that, I think the movie was pretty good overall (but it doesn't take much for me to enjoy a movie). It was refreshing to see new ways of connecting (social media) incorporated into the story. It was also refreshing to see so many different personalities mesh (and clash) to accomplish a common goal. The part where those youngin's showed up to get money from the group was hilarious too!!
