Christmas Under Wraps (2014 TV Movie)
2/10
Stale - lacks plot - not believable - lacks merit
28 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Let it Snow re-packaged where where flawless makeup, hair-perfect and pasted-on-smile Candace Cameron Bure plods in with high-heels and designer clothes (if she's really a smart doctor, you think she'd know the weather in Alaska in December?). Within days of her arrival, she is willing to give up the career she's worked hard for (well, in truth, it's implied that Daddy pulled the strings) to pine for a somewhat good looking character who has little definition or motivation, and live in a syrupy small town called "Garland" in Alaska. The ridiculous is implied in that Garland is really the North Pole and Mr Holliday (a character who reminds me of a greasy spoon with a bad attitude) is really Santa Claus (who is apparently headed towards heart disease), is ridiculous and over the top. Scenery very poor. Hallmark has put out more films each Christmas season, but it's quality not quantity that keeps me glued to the screen.
