Romantic, Christmas-y and magical, this one is unique for Hallmark.

This was a fun and unique premise for a hallmark holiday movie and I loved the chemistry between Kimberley Sustad (Kate) and Benjamin Ayres (Dan).

Kate inherits her dad's Santa school, The North Star, when he retires. Their biggest competition is a corporate Santa School, Saint Nicholas, that has moved into town, but in order to cut costs they fire their best Santa trainer, Dan, who comes to work for The North Star Santa School. Dan and Kate went in one date prior to working together...and now they have quite a challenge with the misfits in this session of the school and hoping to win the Santa Cup.

On the way to meet their new class of Santas, Kate and Dan meet the real Santa on the side of the road...only Santa seems to have amnesia. They bring "Nick" back to the school hoping to help restore his memory.

They end up with the most unconventional group of Santa's to enter into the Christmas Cup...skinny Santa, cool Santa, hippy Santa, woman Santa, ventriloquist Santa...and well...the real Santa.

The humor in this was great. It was creative, magical and fun...not to mention romantic with just the right amount of Christmas. I think Christmas and romantic fans will enjoy this one.
