Just saw this last night....


and I was very impressed with. Although, it had a VERY predictable ending, I thought it had a lot of funny moments ("What blend of coffee do you have" - "Folger's"), the story line was simple to follow and Jennifer Grey provided some decent acting.

I just saw this last night myself. I thought it was a very pleasant picture.

It's a cute, spirited Xmas movie. I can't believe the overall low rating it is getting...if you just sit back and enjoy the film for what it is and let the spirit of Xmas in...it is a very enjoyable watch.

Quite a good movie. I'd watch it again maybe.

I was surfing and caught it. Although somewhat cliche'ish and predictable, a nice "feel-good" movie. Didn't realize that was *the* Jennifer Grey...wow!

Read the actor bios. Gregg and Grey are really married.

I loved the scene when she opens up the barn, and it's like a hidden wonderland of his frozen past as an artist.

The artwork is really good, and it suddenly revealed why they clicked. He already knew she was a photographer, but his sense of imagination must have already tipped her off that he was hiding something more behind the Christmas-green pickup truck persona.

The acting is a significant level above the usual Christmas movie. Writing as well.

Take the line where she catches Lorenzo in bed with his assistant:

Claire: "What's going on here?"
Lorenzo (with perfectly straight face): "We were just going over the wedding plans."
Claire: "In bed?!"
Lorenzo (nonchalantly): "Is more comfortable in bed."

This was funny and nice. Just right emotionally at the end. Even though we knew it would happen.
