27 November 2017. While this typical Christmas television movie offers the usual characters and predictable plot, what distinguishes this movie from most of the rest of the holiday fair is the script and performance of Jesse Hutch as Cole who seems to suddenly arrive on the scene after Sarah played by Ashley Newbrough describes her perfect man. His odd behavior is a delight to experience on the screen as his obsessions with all things winter is so becoming and becomes an insightful fantasy of imagination. What is unfortunate is the rather tepid transformation that Sarah goes through which is more attributable to lazy writing rather than the actress herself. Compare with Michael Keaton's performance in Jack Frost (1998). Snowmance passes for holiday television movie to enjoy, but don't expect spectacular fireworks or a lovefest.
