Reviews



Scott Hettrick of the Entertainment News Service called the movie "The first delightful cable Christmas movie of the season", but added that "There is little of substance here, just lightweight holiday fare to start the season off with jolly good feelings". 'The Movie Scene' called it "a pleasant little Christmas movie which if it crops up on TV and you need something to amuse the children it will do the job and you might enjoy a few bits as well. But it isn't the sort of Christmas movie which you will remember a great deal of a day or so later". 'Complex.com' ranked the movie 2nd in a list "The 15 Most Ridiculous Hallmark Movies Of All Time". "Anyone with even a shred of taste should stay away from this film", the writer reasoned.
