Weird vibe movie

Malin is the reason I watched it on the first place, I really like her. The plot was weird, the whole contest "christmas classic" was never well explained, kinda of just happened and that was it, and wasnt funny at all, not once - actually, the six inches joke made by a CHILD felt so off and weird! This whole movie has a weird vibe, i cant quite put my finger on it, but the vibe feels off, weird and nonsense. If "island Christmas" started to play again one more time i would loose it! Even Malins fiancé character is extra weird, seems pointless to the story, I dont know! I was mesmerized by the weird vibe, though. I watched until the end just to see what would happen lol. So weird, I swear, never watched something like it!

Mediocre Christmas movie...

Of course I had never heard about the 2023 Showtime Christmas movie titled "The Christmas Classic" prior to sitting down to watch it as part of my 2024 Christmas movie marathon.But I will say that the movie's cover was sufficiently cheesy to instill that particular sense of being in for a sappy Christmas movie experience.Writers Austin Nichols and Shane Dax Taylor put together a sufficiently enjoyable storyline, but it just wasn't standing out in the vast sea of similar movies. And as such, I have to say that "The Christmas Classic" is not going to become a Christmas classic. Watchable, for sure, just not memorable out unique.There were some familiar faces on the screen, such as Malin Akerman, Ryan Hansen, Austin Nichols and Amy Smart. It should be said, though, that the acting performances in the movie were fair.They mentioned The Griswalds in this movie, as they were talking about Christmas lights, which I found to be a nice touch and a lovely nod to the classic "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation".My rating of director Shane Dax Taylor's 2023 movie "The Christmas Classic" lands on a bland five out of ten stars.

A PG 13 alternative to Hallmark movies

This is a Hallmark movie at its core, but it has some adult jokes peppered throughout. The guy from Reno 911 and The State steals the show as local broadcaster Dick Mountain. I saw some reviews making it look like it's crude language throughout, and it's not at all, just here and there and sometimes it's nice to take a break from the ever sugary G rated Hallmark movie. It's got a good cast, some nice outdoor snow mountain scenery that is not Vancouver for a change which is all you see with Hallmark (although Vancouver is beautiful)- filmed in New Mexico. It's also a spoof of sorts on 80s ski resort movies. Overall if you like Hallmark but are looking for something just a bit less sugary, you will like this. Don't overthink it.
