A Merry Christmas Wish

Wow! I forgot how much I love Cameron Matheson! He is the perfect leading man for a romance movie. Those eyes, that smile, he's just perfect! Age is not hurting him at all either. I recall watching and enjoying his movies years ago. I don't know where I've been to not have seen him in so long but I'm glad I caught him in this movie. I had never heard of Jill Wagner before now but she was also very good and convincing. These romance movies get rushed because there is less than two hours to convince us that the love is real in the ned and this movie did it for me. A few movies this year also had me grinning from ear to ear by the last scene, which almost always incudes a deep passionate kiss and this movie doesn't disappoint. It went a little further and made me actually envision the couple's future together and that's the biggest reason they got the 10 rating. The farmhouse used in this movie was beautiful and so well decorated. It made me want to move back to the country. Great movie and love story. Hope to see both these actors again soon.

A refreshing take on the city girl moves to the country theme so prevalent in holiday movies. The heroine is a decent human being who genuinely cares more about her family than the money she could get. Only thing that doesn't make sense is the title. Janey is an advertising agent in New York when she learns a great uncle she stayed with as a kid has died. She returns home and reconnects with past friends while deciding what to do with her uncle's farm. In the process she has to choose whether to continue a town tradition. A very humble movie that doesn't get caught up in itself. Also, best holiday kitchen and bedroom decorations for the win!

I really liked this movie and even though I could see exactly how it would end, I enjoyed the road getting there. The two main leads are definitely both seasoned actors and I thought their chemistry sparkled. The plot "save the farm" is a bit overdone but it is a Christmas flick after all.... I do not have an Instagram account so I don't follow the actors in their private lives but I instantly knew JW either just had a baby or was pregnant during filming, turns out she had her first child in 2020 and I think she was pregnant in this movie, congratulations! I'm glad CM & JW among others switched networks, I look forward to seeing them!

Personally, if it's Jill Wagner it's a 10!!! But not this one. Something is off about this movie. There is big time mismatched between leads. Not enough chemistry unlike the awesome connections between Jill and Nick Bateman in A Christmas Miracle For Daisy. Chemistry between leads makes movies interesting and fun to watch. Nicole (Deanna Jarvis) and little Gracie (Taya Messier) did their part extremely well and noticeable. Let me just say, I have watched Cameron's movies in the past, sorry but not a fan🤗 I really hope that GAC will create another Jill and Nick Batsman's movie soon. We can only hope 😊

Loved the movie. Very well acted, not cheesy at all. So there's at least that, since some are absolutely unbearable, if you know what I mean. However, there are gaps in the story. A) She's supposed to be close the great-uncle, yet hasn't visited (a mere 3 hour drive) in 20 years? B) She's supposed to be 30 (10 + it's been 20 years)? Jill Wagner is gorgeous, but she's no 30 year old. Idk, they could have just said she hasn't been back since high school/college age and it would have been fine. There's also no way anyone would recognize her after 20 YEARS. C) I don't understand all the fond reminiscing w/o her ever going back until Randall died. Annnnd that's about it.
