6/10
Pleasant but not one for the ages
10 July 2023
The film had some lovely themes and moments but was not the "laugh out loud funny" that the professional reviews suggested. It fit the desciption of a rom-com on paper but delivered with more emphasis on the rom than any real comedy. Having the different cultural perspectives was the only part that stopped the plot from being one we have seen many times before.

The cast were not taxed with difficult dramatic acting and no one character stood out to me as a star. They all played their part in bringing together the light plot.

I found it to be a slow burn thoughtful view on marriage and what makes a marriage work in today's society. It was a good weekend afternoon watch but not a movie I would return to.

Becoming Santa (2015 TV Movie)
1/10
Antiquated sexist plot with terrible acting.

Warning: Spoilers
Most Christmas movie are cheesy with bad acting but this took it to the next level. Just when you think the story might redeem itself with the female lead stepping up and taking control, she gets put back into the kitchen. Jack Frost is beyond creepy and sleezy.

I'm not sure who their target audience is but not suitable for kids or anyone with intelligence.
