Cute but no chemistry
It's a cheesy Netflix Christmas film so you know what the ending will be five minutes in. And that's fine for the most part - grandpa is wise but sharper and more knowing than people think, there's a comic relief friend who laments his lack of a love life, and the kindly town mayor gives our heroine the break she needs. Hell, even chisel-jawed perfect on paper but not the right guy grandson of Gregory Peck really only makes a safe error to show us that although he's nice he isn't the right guy. The problem is when the two main characters get together at the end there's nothing believable about the romance. As best friends their chemistry was excellent, but their kiss just seemed like two awkward strangers at a failed audition. Grandson Peck might not be the one, but I doubt the best friend would be if they were that lifeless.
Predictable. Yet worth it.
It's easy to say that yes this movie is highly predictable. I'd presume that's one of the reasons it's receiving a large load of bad reviews. I think coming from my point of view is that the film is like any other good Christmas movie. It's predictable although always has a moral behind it. It's worth giving a watch. No you're not going to watch it more then once this year but it's still pretty good.
Perfect Christmas movie!
OK everyone maybe if you don't like "predictable Christmas movies" go somewhere else? But come on this is the PERFECT holiday movie to get you in the holiday spirit. It's wayyy better than A Christmas Prince and that movie was the talk of the town last year. Who wants to watch a Christmas movie with twists and turns anyway??? I don't!!! They make Christmas horror films if that's more your thing.. I wanna see love, friends, family, joy, all the holiday staples, etc at Christmastime. Sorry, I guess that means I like my Christmas predictable? Maybe it's because the rest of the year is so unpredictable that Christmas should be the one thing you can count on.. which this movie is! And it's freaking perfect in its execution, simplicity and all! This is my very first IMDb review ever, because that's how badly I wanted to get this message across in a sea of negative reviews. Don't let people's sad attitudes stop you from watching this adorably inspiring movie. But if you want to be depressed this Christmas, then by all means listen to their reviews and watch something else.
Genius
If we're rating according to how well the movie accomplished its goals, I have to give this a rave review. Somehow Netflix noticed that people love watching bad holiday TV movies, so they made their own perfect versions, taking every gloriously terrible detail into account. The Holiday Calendar combines a ridiculous plot, adorably unrealistic characters, incredibly cheesy writing, over-the top scoring, and the perfect amount of cliche, both of the Christmas variety and of the bad movie variety. It's a perfected version of your average Hallmark movie, but without the soulless blonde leads. I have to take off one point because it's neither a "good" movie nor an official satire, but it certainly impressed me. Netflix understands TV watchers better than any television network.
Is she really struggling?
The movie was okay, but I just couldn't get passed the fact that the description said "struggling photographer". She seemed very well off to me. Not realistic at all.
