My review · Reviewed 12/13/2023
I have never made a movie, and I'll probably never make a movie. I hate crapping on someone else's art. This movie is bad. Really bad. Worse, the title seems to have been an afterthought. The setup to the movie involves the two leads playing cruel tricks on each other, and it is absolutely painful. The movie actually does get into a more traditional (e.g. cheesy) holiday movie at that point. Even though the script and acting is brutal, there is something very likeable about Ms. Adams. She gives her all to make this movie even remotely watchable.
