Love vs politics
Opponents in an election is not the most common Christmas movie premise. Other than that, this movie covers a multitude of other common tropes. Even the potential job far away is part of the usual formula. The two leads frequently rehash their high school days. The conflict and climax are a bit unusual. What no broken pipes?I didn’t like Julia for most of the movie. She softens a bit in the second half, but in the first half she has a huge chip on her shoulder and seems to be constantly picking a fight, not just with Parker. Parker on the other hand is almost totally positive. Jacky Lai and Kale Epstein have chemistry mostly thanks to Epstein. They occasionally have some nice banter.
The movie is pretty heavy with liberal political themes. There is a secondary romance with two high school boys who kiss. Julia is constantly pushing green themes. I didn’t notice any racial issues other than the fact Julia is Asian.
Some issues of relatively low significance: What’s with several slow-mo’s of people walking down stairs? And then there are the messages that someone with poor eyes, or a small screen can’t read.
Terrible and Modern Sensibilities
So Lifetime isn’t about women anymore.It’s about the agenda. IN this case it’s about politics and someone running for office and having gay siblings and co-workers and, this completely turned me off.
I tried to watch this. Lifetime actually had good X-Mas movies a few years ago, but this year, they decided women no longer mattered.
Much like EVERY other Hollyweird station and movie, they essentially made it about the L. G. B. TABCs.
Women no longer matter to Lifetime.
This was bad…just move on from Lifetime.
