Christmas in Homestead (2016 TV Movie)
7/10
Decent Hallmark slow motion romance
19 February 2021
This is my first ever IMDB review and sorry for poor English, but I leave in Eastern Europe.

Watched recently Christmas in Homestead as recommended by a family friend. My wife is a fan of Hallmark Christmas Romance movies, but while watching this she got so bored that she fell asleep, which doesn't happen very often. I still tried to resist the whole movie, as I wanted to see Taylor Cole. We watched her recently in Matching Hearts, her last movie, and she delivered an outstanding performance.

On one side, this is a typical Hallmark B movie, with poor script, low budget, things happening in slow motion (not that one would expect to see action thrillers on Hallmark, but...) and Michael Rady is a big disappointment.

On the bright side, the landscape and filming are nice, Katrina Norman is a nice surprise and the little Sophie girl is very cute. The scene when she first meets her favorite actress Jessica McEllis is epic, so is Taylor's mimic.

And then you have Taylor Cole. She is probably the most beautiful Hallmark actress, jointly with Tricia Helfer. Doesn't look at all a B-movies actress, even if I noted that she did 14 Hallmark movies in the last 6 years. Heard that she married recently. Perfect for this kind of roles.
