It is always difficult to rate movies. This one is a great example of why.
This isn't aimed at the over 25s (and, oh boy, am I over 25 and feeling every year of it)
So it is hard to rate, for every one.
If I was lower aged and less jaded, this would probably be an easy 10.
It stars a person, that was pretty much born on the big screen! Luckily, it appears that she is still loving every scene of it! Either that, or she really is gold.
I am talking about, of course, the great Bailee Madison. I find she always seems to lift the whole production, especially the cast, to a very pleasing energy level.
Either that, or it is just coincidentally high level.
You can make your own mind up!
I actually enjoyed this, possibly more than an old man child should!
The cast were great together, the story, while not exactly unheard of, was a different and quite a new twist on the norm.
On the romance aspect, it was a slow burn and not the main focus, but still, it gave a sweet moment that many that has romance as the main feature have been missing.
It is a really good, solid movie to snuggle in with, in the matching onesies and warm log fire.
Christmas however, is not featured as a main theme either, so, if you are a family that likes to make Christmas last as long as you can, I would suggest watching this at the end of November, as a suggestion of upcoming Christmas and time for Santa to see who is being naughty and nice.
Save the Christmassy Christmas movies for December.

Because of the low romance content, this doesn't score as highly as the movie deserves as a Christmas movie. But possibly more than the lack of romance should, in a list of Christmas romance movies!
