A Christmas Proposal (2008 TV Movie)
3/10
Bad

All the comments about weather are true, but this is a minor issue because most of the holiday movies have this same phenomenon to some extent or another because it is well known that the movies are made year round. I am curious about all the scarves that Nicole Eggert wore almost constantly during the movie, yet usually without a coat, even indoors, and I wouldn't call any of them stylish.

I have a much bigger problem with Reagan. She isn't just unlikeable, she is hate-worthy. She constantly makes comments which aren't just rude, but mean. This woman is mean spirited even to her boyfriend. She and Rick never have any chemistry in this movie which you would at least expect in the beginning.

Lisa isn't much better, but at least she isn't mean. There isn't a lot of chemistry here either.

Rick has no idea what he wants. He stumbles into renewing his relationship with Lisa. One wonders how he could be a successful corporate lawyer.

The whole business deal is convoluted and confusing. The whole thing is just out there and assumed to be fundamentally bad. There are times during the movie where the biggest message I was getting was - all progress is bad and the way things are is good. This theme is overdone and made into a cliché.

There are too many meaningless musical interludes - fluffy filler.

There are many other problems which involve spoilers, so I'll just leave it at that.
