There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.
Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Hallmark.. are you trying to kill me? My heart can't take this type of movies!
Typical Hallmark love story with a story inside of it. I watched the whole thing because I thought right when they first met that it was like watching the movie version of the Dixie Chicks song "Travelin Soldier". Was nice to see it end with him home tho!!
Terribly melodramatic, sappy story with awful dialogue. I guess they have to tick certain boxes to make a Hallmark movie, and this got them all: mother and daughter at odds, mother doesn't like the boyfriend, boyfriend is too nice to be true, boyfriend goes overseas, daughter learns in the end that mom is right. Oh brother. Can anyone write an original thought anymore?Catherine Bell had the worst dialogue, don't know how she got through it. Maybe some actresses can pull off something so overly dramatic, but she's not one of them.I gave it 1 star.
I looked forward to this movie because I like Catherine Bell in "Good Witch," but this is not one of her better ones.The time line doesn't really make sense (spoilers ahead). The daughter skypes with the young soldier on the same day (or maybe the day before) she is supposed to sing for the Christmas program. Then, while she's on stage, somebody starts reading a list of soldiers who have gotten killed. Why would Tyler's death have been reported to that person in such a short time, especially since he was from another state?Then it seems like Tyler was hurt, patched up, and sent back to the U.S. In something like a 24-hour period. Their long-distance relationship only lasted about a week before he was back.It was obvious from the way the camera kept focusing on the door that Tyler would be back.
