My Christmas Wish

Film yang bagus!

This movie uses many of the usual Christmas tropes starting with a woman, Abby, who has to return to her hometown because of her late grandma's house but it interrupts her work project for which she's up for promotion. She hires her old flame, Josh, to help her fix up grandma's house so she can sell it. He has a cute kid, Noah. All three spend a lot of time together. There are a couple of musical montages of them together. The story seems to wander between Abby's job, the house, Josh, Noah, and her childhood friend's new business. Overall, the story has no great highs or lows or surprises. The ending wraps up too neatly in too many ways, but that's normal for these movies. The one thing that stands out, and not in a positive way, is Karen. In some ways, she seems to be the town's dictator, in the way that some administrative clerks are. She also has a crush on Josh and her jealousy shows. It didn't seem to me that the actors had their hearts in their roles. It didn't seem like Abby and Josh had any serious chemistry.

My Christmas Wish (2020) - I did not buy the chemistry of the leading pair for one minute and while Zane Stephens as Josh was attractive, he seemed a bit of an arsey character and not someone I wanted to get together with anyone, until he could learn much more than he did in this film. His kid, Noah, was annoying too and I've already forgotten all about Meggan Kaiser in the role of Abbey. And while I'm on the subject of the cast, it should be noted that I thought Karen, the woman from the historical society was such a vile character and way over the top, especially in comparison to everybody else. The story was incredibly predictable, even more so than usual and it just didn't grab me at all. It also seemed that the production was very low budget too. Not one for my tastes and probably one that I will skip in future, because even the cheery Father Christmas character didn't bring any real cheer to it. Overall, it was a bit pointless. 4.41/10.
