The movie was not perfect and the Christmas theme was a bit forced but I would not mind watching it again. Really liked the 2 leads MacKenzie Porter and Drew Lachey. The story was appealing in that a Star singer who has lost his way is suddenly staying with a minister and his family (his daughter has a poster of the singer in her room since age 15- now she is 26). Loved the mom taking photos of her daughter when waking her up in the morning. One scene between the 2 leads- so happy it brought tears. We only have one song in the movie (an original at the end) which was not a Christmas song. More music would have helped. They really could have dropped the singer's girl friend from New York visiting. The filming lacked those great closeups and some of the dialogue was a bit hard to understand. This was an UP movie so the budget was probably low. It was a good movie. Could have been great.
