Compelling, flawed and ultimately watchable

I say "ultimately" watchable because halfway through you will question yourself as to why you are wasting your time, but if, like me, you persevere you will be rewarded.It isn't well made. The dialogue is patchy. The characters are, on the whole, hard to sympathise with. The lifts are weird. But somehow it comes together, slowly but surely and as it does it grows a heart and builds to a satisfactory conclusion.I now need to write another 153 characters to get this review entered on IMDB. So here goes. I have seen a lot of Christmas films that are a lot worse, and I have seen many many more that are leagues ahead of "Christmas Eve". But does it pass the "would I watch it again" test? Yes it does, just.

worth a watch

Quite a cute film overall, that labours a little in the middle, then rushes to an end with no closure for some actors. The part I would find scary would be trapped in a lift with Shawn King, as her face frankly terrifies me. Patrick Stewart's dialogue was shockingly limited and poorly written, maybe he filmed it in a couple of days then got on with something else.
