Doesn't really marry up

'Marry Me for Christmas' (2013)Opening thoughts: Despite sounding very predictable, 'Marry Me For Christmas' also sounded relatable and have seen lower budget family drama films done well. Unfortunately, 'Marry Me For Christmas' is not a good example of this being done well. Really liked the idea, but the idea was wasted by mediocre at best and too often downright bad execution. Is 'Marry Me For Christmas' unwatchable? No it isn't, it does have a few good things but even those good things have been done infinitely better elsewhere. Could it have been much better? Absolutely yes and it was a shame that it didn't turn out well at all.Good things: Beginning with the good things, the scenery is quite nice. It does lack authenticity, it is clear that this wasn't done in Winter but it is at least nice to look at. The actors to me did do a more than serviceable job with what they were given, regardless of the character writing the performances were surprisingly above average. Particularly Victoria Rowell.Some of the music is pleasant enough.Bad things: The film however does suffer from a lot of drawbacks. The editing is very choppy and lacks fluidity and the photography could have been less drab and more focused. While the music is pleasant on its own, it could have been used less and with more subtlety. While the actors do well and their characters didn't irritate me, the characters also didn't feel fleshed out enough and personalities could have been stronger and behaviours less confused.When it comes to the script, pacing and story, 'Marry Me For Christmas' is very messy. The script is very stilted and has too much awkwardness, humour is too far and between and what little there is is cheesy and not funny. The sentimentality also gets too much, as does the over hostile bickering that tends to come out of nowhere and unprovoked. The pace often feels very dragged out in a story that is very thin and filled with overlong padding, what little story there is is very predictable and bland. Structurally, the film is as jumpy as the editing, which did make events incomplete and muddled and affected the coherence.Concluding thoughts: Overall, had potential but rather weak.3/10.

Great Christmas movie!

My husband and I enjoyed this movie. It was very cute, I liked the characters and I personally really like the main actress. I've watched her in a couple other movies and I was happy to see she was in this one. I'm not sure why the other review is so negative, because this movie kept my attention and interest... And the main actress' clothes were not unflattering, they were pretty and modest. This movie was not as good as The Best Man Holiday in my humble opinion but it was entertaining. It's very Christmassy and it had a good plot and great ending. I don't like holiday movies with bad endings so I was happy to finish this one with a smile. I would recommend this to anyone who's in the mood for a good holiday flick... & it's Family appropriate.

Not the usual

This fake fiancee movie didn't go the way you might expect from the beginning, although signs of things to come started showing up fairly early. I thought the story had some interesting turns.I wasn't comfortable with many of the characters mostly because so many of the people who supposedly loved or at least liked each other also treated each other so rudely and often antagonistically.
