A Very Vermont Christmas

There is nothing new with this movie! The writing is not spectacular or worthwhile! The acting is flat as a piece of paper!! Do not know where they found these people but they need to send them back!! The chemistry between the cast is also lacking one hundred percent!! Brewing beer is the business for this film is a sad choice!! These are supposed to be family friendly movies but as we know, no one under twenty one is allowed to legally drink beer! Do not know what Hallmark is thinking with this new direction in story writing but it's just not working! Hopefully when we get the countdown to Christmas, they will have learned from this mistake and give us better movies!! To stress how bad the writing is, her recipe for a Christmas beer gets stolen while her ex-boyfriend is in her office. She leaves him alone in there and he takes a picture of it!! Instead of her realizing that, she blames her new love interest for stealing it!! Common sense would tell her to think of who was in her office with the recipe, but bad writing keeps that from happening!!

اچھی فلم!

Hallmark Channel's Christmas in July continues with a craft beer and skiing in A Very Vermont Christmas. The plot unfolds in a Vermont ski town during the holiday season, where Joy (Katie Leclerc), a young brew master and local champion skier, manages her family's traditional ski pub, Mogul Joe's, alongside her mother, Mary (Joanna Herrington). Facing financial difficulties since Joy's father's passing, she worries about covering their expenses this Christmas. Unexpectedly, Joy's ex-boyfriend Greg (John Forest) shows up and informs them about the Brew-Ski competition he's organizing at his rival venue, Frosty's. Intrigued by the opportunity, Joy and Mary see winning the competition as a potential Christmas miracle. Meanwhile, Joy crosses paths with Zac (Ryan McPartlin), a charming yet inexperienced skier, on the slopes after a lift mishap. Lightweight, sweet, family oriented romantic comedy ... nothing special but enjoyable.

Hallmark lost an opportunity to represent the deaf or hearing impaired community by not only not addressed the lead actresses hearing loss but by covering her hearing aids in every single scene. Shame on you Hallmark. This move makes you no better than those who left because they disagreed with certain storylines you were showing. I will no longer be watching Hallmark movies. That being said the same old storylines are getting really boring. It's seriously time to light a fire under your writers and get some new content where not everything works out perfectly or the female lead doesn't give up everything for the "man of her dreams".

It's not the usual Christmas fair or charity benefit or the usual Christmas memes Hallmark seems to rely on. Even though the family pub business is riding in the balance, it's not the centerap plot line. The "villain" even had their forgiveness in the end. I'm not sure I'd have been so generous if an old family friend and former boyfriend stole from me and sabotaged me knowing it would put me out of business. There was one BIG goof that will be noticed. The 2 leads wanted to get the first chair up the mountain but Lifty Lucy wouldn't let them ride until the stroke of 9AM, despite no one else being around to even know, let alone on line. Yet when they're riding up the mountain and the camera focuses on their conversation, every chair behind them is filled. And when the camera focuses on their backs as they continue moving up the hill, there are also people in the chairs ahead of them. How did they get there? Did they fly and land in the chairs like birds? Overall, it won't ever be counted as the best Christmas movie Hallmark has ever made. But it's far from the worst. The 2 leads would be welcome in more Hallmark films, especially since GAF poached some of their bench.

This is a terrible film The main problem is the female lead There's a childlike way about her that reminds me of what maybe Anne of Green Gables could have been like if she was a real person. As a love interest she don't got it, from almost the beginning I was wondering why the guy lead would fall from her. She is not in anyway an inspired character And to add to that there is zero attraction between the two. And the Greg character is the worst kind of swarmy and I get that it was what the role required but I just wanted to smack him the second he came on the screen. Oh and the storyline is pretty rubbish too I so wish I had not bothered with this movie - it's worst than bad.

"Well, perhaps the laws of physics cease to exist on your stove" My cousin vinny said it best. I thought it was kinda out there that she was going to come up with a beer in 4 weeks and then they can turn around a beer in 1 day and mass produce it as well. If it wasn't for that I would have loved this movie but had to tone it down to liked as it wasn't even close to realistic. I liked the rest of the story and loved that there was a part where she quickly stops a misunderstanding unlike all the other christmas movies that live off misunderstandings. It is the first time I have seen a brewery movie and I was so happy. Next time get a brewer to consult on the film.

YET ANOTHER LET'S SAVE THE BUSINESS PLOT---hoo hum! Local champion skier and Vermont brew master team up as an unlikely match to create a seasonal microbrew, in order to save her family's business . First of all I didn't like how Katie Lynn Leclerc portrayed the main character, I found her cold, arrogant, and bossy, absolutely no warmth which created problems with chemistry with her and male star, Ryan McPartlin. The plot went into so much detail on the microbrew business I felt like I was applying for the job! Perhaps the writer did this because the plot is so simplestic which centers around a microbrew recipe. This whole movie is just too predicable and boring. Viewer beware this is 2 hours you will never get back!

Almost halfway through. So far it's a bit cringe worthy. We like Katie Leclerc and Ryan McPartlin, however Katie seems to smile awkwardly at everything and Ryan's hair always looks a mess. Will have to see how it pans out but I'm betting the picture Zac takes with her recipes in the background will cause a problem going forward. Also, their "relationship" seemed to take all of three days to build into something serious. The ex, Greg is really creepy. Was going to DVR it but quite honestly we don't feel like it's worth a second viewing. If you like craft beers, you may find it interesting and if there's nothing else to do it's not the worst thing to watch.
