Cute and different

Romantic, Christmas-y and magical, this one is unique for Hallmark.

This was a fun and unique premise for a hallmark holiday movie and I loved the chemistry between Kimberley Sustad (Kate) and Benjamin Ayres (Dan).Kate inherits her dad's Santa school, The North Star, when he retires. Their biggest competition is a corporate Santa School, Saint Nicholas, that has moved into town, but in order to cut costs they fire their best Santa trainer, Dan, who comes to work for The North Star Santa School. Dan and Kate went in one date prior to working together...and now they have quite a challenge with the misfits in this session of the school and hoping to win the Santa Cup.On the way to meet their new class of Santas, Kate and Dan meet the real Santa on the side of the road...only Santa seems to have amnesia. They bring "Nick" back to the school hoping to help restore his memory.They end up with the most unconventional group of Santa's to enter into the Christmas Cup...skinny Santa, cool Santa, hippy Santa, woman Santa, ventriloquist Santa...and well...the real Santa.The humor in this was great. It was creative, magical and fun...not to mention romantic with just the right amount of Christmas. I think Christmas and romantic fans will enjoy this one.

Surprisingly refreshing...

I added this 2024 Christmas movie to my Christmas movie marathon without ever having heard about it. Well, truth be told, from the movie's cover, then I wasn't really harboring much of any grand expectations to the movie. Yeah, I know, don't judge a book by its cover.However, I have to admit that writers Alexandre Coscas, Joseph Kelbley and Russell Hainline really surprised me with the script and storyline that they put together for director Lucie Guest to bring to the screen. It was a refreshing script that didn't dive into the standard tropes of sappy Christmas movies all the way. Sure, there were sappy Christmas movie elements here and there, but in overall, it was actually a good change of pace in terms of Christmas movie storytelling. So thumbs up to the writers for that accomplishment.I was not familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, and that is actually something I do enjoy when I sit down to watch a movie. And I will say that the acting performances in "The Santa Class" were good.The character gallery in the movie was nicely written. I definitely enjoyed the offbeat and quirky characters that were training for Santa duty.If you enjoy Christmas movies and want something that offers more than just your average copy/paste Hallmark sappy Christmas movie formula, then you definitely should take 84 minutes to sit down and watch this movie. I was genuinely and wholeheartedly entertained.My rating of director Lucie Guest's 2024 movie "The Santa Class" lands on a six out of ten stars.
