Fluentiama
Perfect cast and a good story

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

At the beginning Eric was annoyed at April because her violin students distracted him from his writing. He turns up his music which in turn annoys her. When the street is shown, the houses are not connected, and later Eric says to somebody that April lives 2 houses down from him. Somebody dropped the ball there! As a reviewer early said, watching the violin playing was cringeworthy. I think my dog could have done a better job than the actress. The story was typical light romance from Hallmark and I enjoyed it.

In an era of crass commercialism, it's great to see a film which has nothing to do with the economics of Christmas. A modern day re-telling of the story of Ebenezer Scrooge in the guise of a misogynist, this seems timely given the current climate where men who use women are forging a chain about themselves, link by link.

As a musician, it was really cringeworthy to watch the scenes featuring violin playing. They made no effort to even pretend to she was a violinist. I would hope that the story is at least a little believable. Further, I found the dialogue to be poorly written, awkward, and uninteresting.

Not that any of this year's Hallmark movies are anything special, but this one is one of the worst.
The male lead, Jesse Metcalf, looks just like an overvthe hill Eddie Munster.
The female lead was just another faceless bland blonde.
The only saving grace of this movie is for those that play the Hallmark Christmas movie drinking game. It hits enough of the common plot points to get you good and snockered.
