Moonlight & Mistletoe



Cheestastic Christmas movie
ABC Family usually puts out some pretty good Christmas movies and this one is no exception. I call it "cheestastic" because it is predictable but the story is fun nonetheless. My biggest problem with the movie was the actors. I am a fan of Candace Cameron-Bure from her days on Full House, but she almost doesn't look like the same person in this movie. She appears to have had quite a bit of plastic surgery, as you will notice because her face never moves. There is a part where she is clearly supposed to scowl/give a dirty look to the villain of the movie and when she turns to do this, her eyes give a cold stare but the rest of her face doesn't follow. I found her lack of emotional responses to be quite amusing, which I think detracted from the story.

The story is very cute, following a bit along the lines of a Charlie Brown Christmas. CCB's father runs a "resort" if you will in a small town in Vermont (look for the sign on the wall in Santa's Workshop) called "Santaville"...

FULL OF CHRISTMAS SPIRIT
This is a great family film-heard one bad word,,but other than that it is wonderful and it will become a must see film each year.It has alot of good morals in it about family and love.You should see this with your family.We thought the acting was great and we will hope for more films like it.

Hallmark Special with Candace
This movie took me two times watching to really develop a speical feeling for it. It was cute, the first time, but I passed on trying to order it right then. Later went I watched it a second time, Either I picked on what I missed the first viewing...but I was glad I got to see it again--and my opinion changed. It joined my Christmas collection.
