amnasadiq-12888 good day, I went through some of the reviews just to check on , If i am the only one who felt terrible about Jewel Staite. Her appearance , expression less face and pathetic acting had a contribution to get Mrs.Miracle 2009 score more and more. wish Erin Karpluk had played Aunt Holly.Its a good Christmas movie.Eric Johnson has a magical smile he fits in the character very well. missed Erin Karpluk' awesome appearance and mature acting. I loved the character of Mrs. Merkle she was the sort of nosy old dear that we all love and listen to, without realizing that she is helping us. Very well acted and lovable role.I actually felt bad for Lauren Holly. Her character was such a ham-sifted caricature of a shallow self centered individual, she occasionally seemed on the verge of cringing while delivering her lines. I'm sure her character was intended to be so over the top as to be humorous, but instead it was just plain awful. I was embarrassed for her.

canadian_male_man Hi there, I don't really have a review for this movie, more of a question. I am wondering and curious to know who played Jewel Staite or Holly's boss in the movie? Character or real life name, does anyone know, please let me know. Thanks so much.Hi there, I don't really have a review for this movie, more of a question.

the-mahler To my surprise, this turns out to be one of my favorites among the many "Made for Television" holiday movies. The cast is an ensemble that does this heart warming story justice. It has a number of inner stories that all seem to get tied together in the end. Obviously, the love interest, but also the father who has stopped celebrating, the child taken away from a father by the war, the up and coming designer trying to make a go of it, the son who is trying to show his worth, and a number of other little threads to get tied together. And, you cannot miss Lauren Holly as the fashion designer. She is hilarious. There is a little something for everyone. Just a simple Christmas story to sit back and make you appreciate the holidays and bring a smile or two. If you don't like this one, you should probably be celebrating a different holiday.

lucymaxx This is a sweet story, but there was a theme throughout of returning to a more slow-paced, old fashioned type of holiday. The movie suffers from an seriously saccharine script that is so sugary sweet, it's practically coma inducing. Even when I agreed with the sentiment being stated, I had to roll my eyes at the dialog that was about as subtle as a frying pan to the face.I actually felt bad for Lauren Holly.

I was embarrassed for her.This movie is okay for what it is - a Hallmark Christmas movie. It's sweet, incredibly simplistic, rather vague on the conflict, and the resolutions are quick and easy. In fact, some of the resolutions are so quick, they're instantaneous. I wouldn't say it's a complete waste of time to watch, but it's such a shallow and frothy piece of fluff that your syrup tolerance level will need to be pretty high. There is so little substance, you will probably forget it thirty minutes after you've viewed it.
