Ok Christmas Movie
17 December 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Guess Who's Coming To Christmas is an okay movie, not good but not bad either. It is about a boy named Tim who enters his sister Kelly in a contest to meet her favorite rock star Dax ( she is 26 and has had a poster of his since she was 18), and he wins. The best scene is the shock on her face when he first shows up. Dax's problem is despite being financially successful he is unhappy because he has not written a song in four years and he had a drinking problem. The relationship between him and Minister's daughter Kelly.is the heart of the movie: We have seen this story before: Boy meets girl, boy loses girl boy gets girl back. What does work best is Kelly (MacXenzie Porter). She is beautiful and dominates the picture. One character I could not stand to as Chelsea (Olivia Cheng). She is an Asian version of the dumb gold digging blonde. She and Dax had absolutely no chemistry together, and she obviously only dated him because he was wealthy. Spoilers ahead:,At the end Dax said "I want a real relationship and it can't be here ( New York) and it can't be with you." Her response: "Can I keep this bracelet " ( she bought it with his money). Spoilers ahead ,Of course on Christmas Day he shows up at Kelly's dad's church, gives her a big kiss in front of the congregation and has her sing a song with him they wrote together, and he announces he needs Kelly's realtor mom to find him a house because he is moving to Kelly's small town in Illinois ( of course it is to be with her). In the final scene, he is outside Kelly's home and he is playing a harmonica Kelly gave him for Christmas, and she gives him a big kiss. It goes without saying they will be married sometime the following year. Dax and Kelly got what they both wanted. Dax a real life and as he said "He regained his faith and even his faith in himself again" and Kelly ends up with the only person she really wanted ( which is why she said "I waited for this ( the kiss) my entire life".)Again an slightly above average movie not great but not bad.
