I am, by profession, a creator. I create stories and turn them into books. I create speeches and then present them before audiences. I create inspirational memes and share them on social media. So, of course, I find it horribly cruel when someone (anyone) says nasty things about my baby/babies. So, it is with great sorrow that I must give my first negative Christmas movie review.
Operation Mistletoe. If you so desire, you can watch it on YouTube by clicking on the title in the previous sentence.
Perhaps it was me. (The old “not you, but me” excuse.) Maybe I wasn’t in the mood for a Christmas movie. After all, I live in Central Florida where the A/C still hasn’t stopped running. But I don’t honestly think that’s it. This one just didn’t grab me right away. Or . . . at all.
Let me tell you what the movie is about and then I will give you the cold hard facts.
From IMDB.com: Interior designer Grace dates Quinn but is too busy for a real relationship. She has the opportunity to reunite with former boyfriend Ryan.
Fact 1: I adore Jen Lilley, so not enjoying this movie grieves me!
Fact 2: Nick Bateman is one handsome guy.
Fact 3: I couldn’t finish the movie. Or, should I say, I didn’t finish the movie.
Fact 4: If you do both watch and finish the movie, I’d love to hear your take on it. I’m sure in the end, everyone lives happily ever after. It is, after all, a Christmas movie!
I won’t go into the usual “cup of hot cocoa” run down because I didn’t watch enough of the movie to tell you if it had such delicacies . . . or a cute kid . . . or any of those things. My utmost apologies to everyone involved in this movie . . . I’m absolutely sure it’s me . . . not you. :/
