I read all the reviews but decided that as i like James Brolin I would watch it. Well I LOVED IT.
You see i lost my husband of 30 years in 2017 and its been three years without him. What do people expect the character Jack is supposed to be like? He acted it exactly as I would have expected. I still cant bare to 'DO' christmas, when my partner died suddenly I just wanted to run away and hide.
I thought his daughter actually needed a lesson on fathers. He worked hard family cant always be together for holidays, if they are commited to jobs. Life isnt like that. I love the daughter Gracie, she was spunky and straight good for her. I really enjoyed it, and glad that Jackie ditched her boyfriend ugh.
Jack was in pain emotionally, he was trying to run away from this, but thankfully and sadly a friend passed away and he came back home and stayed for christmas.
Unless you have lost someone maybe its hard to comprehend just how every christmas each year is harder then the one before.
I gave it 10 stars as it is so how I feel, like a Grinch, I hate christmas i still have my husbands last christmas present he never got to open, i cant bare to get rid of it. This is a lovely feel good movie, with love interest, a bit of political, and love story and learning about family and relationships.
I think I shall watch it again, oh and the dog just made it for me 'NOSE' so funny. I have a dog and she misses my partner too, and without her each year would be even worse. I thought James Brolin acted it perfectly.
