My wife is all about the typical Hallmark Christmas movies, which I find totally boring. You know exactly what will happen within the first 2 minutes.
This movie has the same warm and cozy Christmas movie feeling, but totally keeps you engaged and guessing the WHOLE TIME!
If you read this review and then go watch it, you will think you know how the movie turns out within the first few minutes and think, "That review was trash." Then, later you'll think NOW you have it figured out, and you still won't. Which I love.
You'll also have a whole list of characters you connect with and want the best for. The question is, what's best for them . . . ?
This movie challenges expectations for a RomCom as well as cultural/church culture expectations around dating and marriage while staying firmly in the fun and farcical realm of romcoms. I highly suggest putting this on your Christmas movie list this year.
