There is only one review as I write this and it misses the mark. This is an excellent happy movie. The lead actress Bonnie Sommerville is actually 42 yrs old and really reminds me of Stephanie Zimbalist in "The Story Lady" (this is a good thing). She absolutely carries the movie and interacts great with the supporting cast. Brennan Elliot plays the lead actor and it is just perfect. This movie is a home run. Kept my interest the whole time.

This movie had the little touches that made it memorable. Loved when they ask the ex-encyclopedia salesman who memorized the "A" volume to define "Angel". He touches the little girls nose and says "that's easy, it is a picture of you". That was sweet. Love when Brennan Elliot says "That reindeer cost me a lot". The diner scenes were great as well. Yes the movie started in New York City, but most of it was in Ohio. Enjoy it.

While formulaic a very enjoyable movie. Woman in the add business gets stranded in Christmas loving town with car breakdown. Woman is embraced by town and meets handsome single dad. Single Dad and child fall head over heels for stranded woman. Stranded woman tries to help save the family tree farm. Will she do it? Boss, back in the big city threatens to fire woman if she doesn't make it back to do the big presentation in time. Many tears are shed as woman finally weaves her way back to the city..will she choose her job or the ready made family back in Christmasville?? What do you think. Liked it, worth a watch!

Well, if you enjoy Hallmark Christmas movies, then you will certainly enjoy the 2016 movie titled "Love You Like Christmas" from writer Karen Berger and director Graeme Campbell. Why? Well, because "Love You Like Christmas" is an archetypical Hallmark movie in every meaning of the term, for better or worse.

Now, I will say that the storyline told in "Love You Like Christmas" was actually fair enough and certainly was watchable, and while it does have the traditional Hallmark romatic sappy cheese in it, then the storyline actually offered a bit more than just that. So writer Karen Berger did manage to produce something that added to the formula of the Hallmark creative bench.

The movie starred Bonnie Somerville (as Maddie) and Brennan Elliott (as Kevin),and they definitely carried the movie well enough together and had a nice enough chemistry on the screen. I have to say though, that "Love You Like Christmas" didn't have anyone on the cast list that I was familiar with, and that is something I enjoy in movies.

If you enjoy Christmas movies, then you certainly should give "Love You Like Christmas" a chance, should you find yourself with the opportunity to watch this 2016 Hallmark Christmas movie.

My rating of "Love You Like Christmas" lands on a six out of ten stars.
