The Christmas Club

Cameron Mathison is adorable in this. The Uncle I aspire to be, the business mind I'd like to have and the gorgeous, loving and kind man I'd like to share my life with.

The female lead is a bit precious and "sweet" in a sickly kind of way, but she's not that bad. Certainly she wouldn't make me turn it off, because I actually really enjoyed this film. After turning off 4 films yesterday, because they were all terrible, it was nice to get back on track with this one.

It's full of Christmassy activities, morals and spirit and the romance is cute.

I think her reaction towards the end is a bit OTT, but they have to do something to cause some drama don't they.

It's a festive film that we could all watch and feel something for, but we definitely need to start seeing Cameron topless, at least, in one of these soon.

We've thought the 2019 crop of Hallmark Christmas movies has been pretty disappointing. This is the third one we like.

We liked Cameron Mathison in "A Christmas to Remember", and he came through again here, with a very similar performance. Elizabeth Mitchell is just as beautiful as we remember her from her Santa Clause roles.

This is a story of two people broken on love, and a chance(?) meeting which brings them together ... again and again and again.

The characters all have chemistry, which is essential for a romance, and the story has believability, despite the "magic lady" who drives the couple's fate.

I'm not sure if this is one we'll want to watch year after year, but we very much enjoyed one viewing.

These strangers cross paths again again and see the ripple effect of their generosity in their own lives and the lives of others. Very well done and I always love Elizabeth Mitchell!

This production was blessed by the good acting on the part of Cameron Mathison and Elizabeth Mitchell. They made a good match, and the story was very romantic. A slow development of their relationship with more than a hint of magic provided by the wonderful Gabrielle Rose. Two strangers, both missing true romantic love in their lives, team up to help a little old lady who lost her Christmas Club money. They give her $40.00, and from then on, magic follows them, and brings them together. It was something a little different from the typical cookie cutter offerings from Hallmark. It had some very imaginative and heartwarming plot points. Elizabeth was a little over-sensitive in parts; a little too fragile, but I guess that was her character. They did not drag the misunderstandings out too long. Probably not a re-watch, but I enjoyed it.

I prefer action movies but this family movie was a pure delight. Not to cornet or mushy. The characters had so much onscreen chemistry that it reminded me of a time that I had forgotten. I will add this to my watch again and again list!
