Santa Baby (2006)

Rated PG This isn’t just a sentimental romantic christmas film, it has aĀ heartĀ andĀ isn’t overly sappy. The story was marvelously told and Jenny McCarthy was fashioned for the role. The romance in theĀ movieĀ took a backseat to the story between father and … Continue reading

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year (2008)

Rated NR I caught this film last year and fell in love with it. It’s such a charming romantic christmasĀ  film. Henry Winkler cracks me up and Warren Christie is ruggedly handsome. This film doesn’t have the cheesiness or forced … Continue reading

Karroll’s Christmas (2004)

Rated TV-PG Another take on Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and it is a delightful take. There was a mix-up and all the ghosts go to the wrong house. Even though, this a delightful film,Ā I still wouldn’t watch it again. … Continue reading

Perrier’s Bounty (2009)

Rated R Perrier’s Bounty is a British film, very British. It has the british sense of humor.Ā The filmĀ also has theĀ heavy laden accents to go with that sense of humor. It’s black comedy at it’s best. The story was wonderfully well … Continue reading

Ondine (2009)

Rated PG-13 Colin Farrell is superb. If you don’t like him personally you should still check out his films becauseĀ his acting is superb. He throws himself into his characters. Every time I see him on-screen I’m amazed and this film … Continue reading

Back to You and Me (2005)

Rated NR This made-for-TV show is definitely a made-for-TV show. The acting was so-so and the script was so-so. I do love Dale Midkiff’sĀ corky grin, though. I would definitely think of this film for a rainy or sick day movie. … Continue reading

Sweet November (2001)

Rated PG-13 What a sweet romantic comedy with a twist. To someĀ people this is a sad film to others it’s not convincing. I felt very unconvinced, maybe it was a little too realistic. I don’t know. I just didn’t like … Continue reading
