Run! As fast as you can! It's not good!

Christmas At The Holly Day Inn (2023) -I probably shouldn't have expected much when it took half an hour for the produced by credits to go by at the beginning of the film, you know when they've had to get funding from that many people, it's probably not been wanted by anyone that knows what they're doing.And within minutes I did feel that the film was kind of amateur hour at Christmas time or like an after school special aimed at kids not adults, mostly due to the basic and hammy dialogue.The lighting was off and the camera work was a bit shakey too. The production values weren't brilliant and the actors weren't great either.I couldn't work out whether the cast were badly directed or if they were just really poor at doing their jobs. Anita Dobson should have been better, but it's always hard to tell with Colin Baker who tends to be quite flamboyant anyway.I was prepared to give this one a go however, despite my reservations, which was more than the hotel had (Obviously - Standard plot device), but ultimately there was a bit where Oliver (Kevin Leslie) the leading man, got bumped in to just after the first break and his acting made me cringe so much that I gave up, because life is too short.Unscored as unfinished.

Terrible script

So many of these Christmas films follow the same tired formula. This is simply relocating the standard Hallmark/Reel One outside the US but hardly changing the structure and making no allowances for cultural differences.Is this due to the strike in Hollywood?Open the drawer and take out Script 101. "Strong but irritating/rude" female lead. Dopey male lead. Car breakdown, Misunderstanding. Standard denouement. Then all miraculously sorted out in time for love and marriage in less than a week...Everyone works to save the Inn/Reindeer Farm/Ranch/Bakery/Whatever.As for baking "cookies" in an English kitchen ...

Rubbish

One of the very worse Christmas films my wife and I have ever watched. Absolutely terrible storyline (can't really call it a storyline - the story is so weak and predictable and very unbelievable - difficult to believe that Oliver is being threatened with the sack if he doesn't get the deal signed!) and even worse acting which is incredibly poor. The main characters are the worst and come over extremely plastic and false. The weather is clearly springtime and the Christmas fair they go to is more like a summer fete. We nearly paid for it before it appeared on Channel five - thank goodness we didn't.
