This movie was pretty good for what it was: a light-hearted, Hallmark Christmas movie. The leads were likable and photogenic and you had the irresistible dynamic of the Christmas-phile paired with the Christmas-phobe, an oft used trope that gives us the satisfying opportunity to see the Scrooge-like character change his ways. If I had to fault anything, it would be that Emilie Ullerup's character was just too upbeat and too positive all the time. She seems too good to be true. I also thought that Aaron O'Connell's character was lacking in heart a bit too much. I know that's the whole point of his character arc, but advertising is all about appealing to people's emotions. How did he supposedly become such a star in the advertising with such an obvious lack of heart? Otherwise, a fairly enjoyable Christmas movie.
