mystery Christmas romance Hallmark, all of the above
11 July 2021
Lawyer Sarah Thomas (Lacey Chabert) has been continuing her late mother's work saving her Brooklyn neighbors from evictions. She gets a complimentary invitation to a winter resort run by manager Ben (Stephen Huszar). She's surprised that her office didn't make the reservation. There's a mystery gift giver and there are other recipients.

I like the idea of the mystery gift giver. Once Sarah realizes that, I want her to go full Nancy Drew on the mystery. It's a mystery. It's Christmas. It's romance. It's Hallmark combining all the big hits. I like this concept but I want it to be better. I want it to be more than a Hallmark movie or the best Hallmark movie ever. It should be only about Sarah and Ben joining forces, going around investigating the recipients, alleviating what pains them, and falling in love. At last, it is what it is. There is nothing to hate except maybe the lost opportunity. There is a super sweet reveal. It's a soft gooey Christmas cookie.
