Dolly was more of a poltergeist than an angel. She tries to cause a car accident and haunts Regina for the whole movie.

The music and staging of the numbers are great, but the story is just so tired it literally is comatose.

It tries, I guess. I can't say I enjoyed 'Dolly Parton’s Christmas on the Square' at any moment, though it does have (minor) peaks and (major) troughs. Some parts are OK, a couple of the songs fit and there's one nice scene between Christine Baranski (Regina) and Selah Kimbro Jones (Violet). Parton, meanwhile, is fine in her role. However, the rest is a slog to watch. Far too much emphasis is put on the musical numbers. Yes, it obviously needs them but you must also have more meat on the bones if you're going to make a film out of it. The plot is tedious to watch unfold, as you know what's coming and it doesn't do anything to throw you off the scent. If you just want a music-filled film then head this way, if not it's probably best to avoid.

Now, who doesn't like a bit of Dolly at Christmas? Well, add a little Treat Williams and make Christine Baranski a baddie, and that should have been a recipe for success. Well - it isn't. The whole thing is so sentimentally cheesy that it's almost excruciating to watch. The plot - insofar as that re More
