The Real Review

This is a pretty tepid holiday romance that lands in a mushy middle, with most finding it forgettable. The story of Christina trying to find love before Christmas is called predictable and thin, and the jokes mostly don't land. Lucy Hale as Christina and Ian Harding as her love interest Peter get credit for being charming and doing what they can, but they're working with very familiar material. It's a harmless watch if you're desperate for seasonal fluff, but it won't make anyone's annual must-see list.
