A Christmas Blessing (2023)
Didn't realize this was starring a criminal
Why would anyone want to watch a criminal who thinks cheating is the best way to get ahead?
I didn't realize the criminal Lori Laughlin was in this movie.
Shut it off as soon as I realized. I'm not interested in watching criminals who think they can buy their way into college, while the rest of us have to use merit.
I have to add more characters, evidently. Lori Laughlin is a criminal who thinks she's better than you. You and your family have to work hard to get into college - but the criminal Lori Laughlin thinks she deserves better and her kids don't need to work hard, so she cheats and pays people off.
The Enchanted Christmas Cake (2021)
Horrible Hair is a HUGE distraction
This movie is stupid on so many levels:
A) the 'bakery' with zero customers, no food on display and the baker and her assistant walk around all day (while baking) in high heels.
B) THE. HAIR. I assume the burnt, mis-matched bangs are fake clip-on hair and is that really the best they could do?? Does nobody on the set have eyes?? Is the 'hairdresser' on set the daughter of the head of the studio?? Why does this person have a paying job???
C) The dumb cake doesn't even have a recipe, just a list of ingredients and the baker (supposedly in VERMONT) never thought of MAple syrup for her missing ingredient???
D) very thin story line and a complete waste of time. Not even fun in the "let's make fun of this christmas movie while drinking' way.
Radium Girls (2018)
This movie is HORRIBLE
I'm so upset by how HORRIBLE this film is. This is *such* an important story and this stupid movie is filmed like an after school special with dumb 'old timey' clips added throughout. Why?
First - they film the MAIN point of how these women/girls used the brushes incorrectly. WHY would they lick the brush AFTER dipping it in radium??? I mean, why not have them eat it with a spoon.... ????? They would put the brush in their mouths to create the 'point' and then dip it in the radium. I mean, come on, use some common sense.
These poor women had their bodies WRECKED by radium. Not just bruises and puffy faces. Why didn't they show, or talk, about any of that? Ridiculous.
Whoever wrote this dreck - and the directors - did the real Radium Girls a huge disservice by not treating this story with respect. I'm actually MAD after watching that horrible movie. Those women deserved so much more when having their stories told.....everyone involved in this movie should be ashamed of themselves.
Listen to the My Favorite Murder episode about the Radium Girls to get a much better representation of what happened.
Secrets in the Snow (2020)
Don't. Just don't.
I opened an IMDb account just to review this horrible movie.
Ahhh, where to begin? Yes, Lifetime movies, as a whole, are horrible but they're fun to laugh at. In fact, my daughters and I do it frequently.
But THIS one. Ugh. First, the 'actors' playing the mother and sister are TERRIBLE. They.just.read.their.lines.in.a.monotone.voice. and then the sister sneers often to show how 'tough' she is. Yikes.
But the funniest part - out of all the ridiculous trope they trotted out...the 'distant' father, the well-meaning newcomer, the oblivious mother....is the fact the ENTIRE movie takes place in the - wildly under lit - house because there is a HUGE SNOWSTORM outside. Everyone is snowed in!!!! Nobody can make the big birthday party!!! Except, curiously, when the outside shots are shown, there is no snow on the porch, about 1/2 inch of snow on the car and the GRASS is poking through the snow in the front yard. Come ON, that's just laziness. Come up with another plot point if the weather isn't cooperating.
The ending, although ENTIRELY predictably is laughingly bad. Just bad, bad.
This movie isn't even worth taking the time to laugh along with....it's simply horrid.
