The sexual tension between Scott and Xavier...
Review by misterelguapo ½ 1
I love all the tropes in the Hallmark/Lifetime/Great American Family (🤮) pantheon of movies, but one of my favorites is when a big city person visits a small town for whatever reason and they go to a coffee shop or a diner, order some highfalutin city-fied coffee, and everyone reacts like they're dealing with an alien.
Like, townspeople that are in the coffee shop or diner turn and look, maybe murmur under their breath a bit. The person behind the counter looks at them with disdain and is, like, "We don't have that! We have coffee!"
I fucking love that. Inject that shit straight into my veins.
When he meets the two old timers right as he steps out of his car, he immediately yelps the diner that they recommend for coffee and is concerned that it only has two stars. Just get a two star coffee, dickhead. You'll be okay.
Review by ╳ล𝚀ህ۲ⅈ 𝓢Ⴌ𝝰𝚛զ 2
Clay from Manhattan moves to lesser New York to help a big box mart crush the local Christmas tree farm. When Clay falls for the daughter trying to keep her family’s farm afloat, she manipulates her into marketing schemes ostensibly to boost business. He says “get creative” to compete with the store that can afford to upend her and her ideas at every step, and because he’s seeing her under false pretenses, he’s always able to stay a step ahead.
Clay is a pretty insidious capitalist; Not content to simply run them out of business, he compels her to sink her family into debt running promotions to save the farm. I really don’t see how they aimed to do it, but this movie really wants you to believe that free market competition works for everyone in the end.
Review by Amanda ★★½
#1 And thus the pandemonium begins. The basic, recycled and predictable plot holiday rom-com movie binge has commenced.
Review by Dan McCoy ★★ 1
Pretty much the standard issue version of this kind of Hallmark Xmas fare, although the ending was a little more practical and realistic than I expect from one of those holiday romcoms, which I appreciated.

Didn’t really want to review this film as it proves that I watched this movie.
Review by eholiday
The entire movie leading up to a pun was glorious
Review by hazzababy02 ★★★
Little did I realise I was in for an anti-capitalist banger! This was just so much more than a festive romance. You, reading this - stop that city hustle, support your local businesses and move to Hudson bloomin Springs to meet the Jessica to your Clay. Down with the mega corporation - or should I say, “Timber” 🫦

🎄 2021 Christmas Binge Watch Movie #96 🎄
I think I hate this movie. It’s just to dang nice. We’re dealing with livelihoods and potentially losing a thirty year old family business and it’s all niceties. These squeaky clean movies are just to afraid of real conflict. The desire to always be nice is a real detriment. Hurt some feelings, it’s okay. The mom is so annoyingly neutral. Why does everybody want these two to get together? I know he’s doing his job, but realistically this is ridiculous. Maybe my big problem with this is that Christopher Russell plays his role entirely one note, and that note is indifference. When he’s snooping around and using folks for intel, indifference. When’s…

A Lot Like Christmas is a heartwarming romantic comedy released in 2021, starring Maggie Lawson, Christopher Russell, and Marlie Collins. Set during the magical holiday season, this movie is filled with love, laughter, and joyful moments that will leave audiences feeling warm and fuzzy inside. The story follows Kate (Maggie Lawson), a career-focused woman who has dedicated her life to her work. Despite being talented and driven, she has unknowingly distanced herself from the joy and excitement of the Christmas season. With her busy schedule and stressful job, Kate has almost forgotten what it feels like to truly celebrate the holidays.
Everything changes when she meets Chris (Christopher Russell), a charming and free-spirited man who embodies the Christmas spirit. Chris is known throughout the town for his love of the holiday season, and his infectious joy brings smiles to everyone he encounters. When fate brings Kate and Chris together, their contrasting personalities create a delightful and unlikely romance.
As Kate and Chris grow closer, Kate begins to rediscover the magic of Christmas that she had long forgotten. Through a series of heartwarming and sometimes amusing events, Chris teaches Kate the importance of slowing down and cherishing the small moments in life. Together, they embark on a journey of self-discovery, love, and the true meaning of the holiday season.
Alongside their blossoming romance, our main characters find themselves facing various challenges and obstacles. Kate must confront her own insecurities and fears that have held her back from fully embracing happiness. As she opens herself up to the possibility of love and joy, Kate learns the value of taking risks and finding fulfillment beyond her professional success.
A Lot Like Christmas also features Marlie Collins as Emily, Kate's younger sister and confidante. Emily adds an element of sisterly love and support to the story, as she encourages Kate to let go of her rigid ways and embrace the magic of the Christmas season. With her witty and comedic personality, Emily provides a dose of levity to balance out the emotional depth of the film.
Throughout the movie, viewers are treated to picturesque scenes of a small, charming town dressed in all its holiday glory. Vibrant Christmas decorations, twinkling lights, and festive melodies create a truly enchanting environment. The movie beautifully captures the essence of Christmas, evoking a sense of nostalgia and warmth that will resonate with audiences of all ages.
A Lot Like Christmas is a heartwarming tale that reminds us of the importance of love, joy, and family during the holiday season.

Whether you're looking for a feel-good romantic comedy or simply in need of some holiday cheer, A Lot Like Christmas is the perfect choice.
