Just in Time for Christmas (2015) Reviews

• Easy Film to Enjoy

  Christmas-Reviewer2017-11-10

  I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 400 Christmas MOVIES. SO BEWARE OF BOGUS REVIEWS. SOME REVIEWERS HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE REVIEW THAT TELLS ME THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I AM HONEST! I REVIEW MOVIES AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN. In this film Lindsay has to make a tough decision: stay in her small hometown and marry longtime beau Jason, or accept a once-in-a- lifetime job teaching at an Ivy League college thousands of miles away. Fortunately, a magical messenger gives her a priceless Christmas Time gift. What I liked the most about this film is that it resolved everything and the people featured in this film all have a happier life. The screenplay was well thought out. The plot is a "fantasy" however it is very plausible on how some would react if they find themselves 3 years into the future!

• Excellent Christmas story about gaining perspective on life!

  I watched this special show with my daughter while she was home for Thanksgiving. This story is inspiring and actually not so easy to predict as most stories of its genre. The magical "It's a Wonderful Life" type structure of the story and superb casting made this a tearful and joyful as well as entertaining movie to watch.

  Loved this movie. The characters are sweet and charming. Truthful and loving without being sugary. Acting is excellent and as someone who loves any movie with a time travel component and Christmas movies in general, I found this to be the best of both worlds. You just can't help but love Eloise Mumford from the moment she steps on screen. Her smile and gentleness are completely captivating. Michael Stahl-David is a wonderful sweet and funny leading man, and Christopher Lloyd is the perfect companion for the journey, I also love the Back to the Future trilogy and the reference although subtle is not lost. Enjoy this feel good story about finding what is really important

  I watched this movie like 10 times already and i can't help but becoming emotional towards the end .... the wedding scene is like the director must have known .. it focuses on the emotion of the lead actress as she misses all the loved ones during her 3 year after travel... loosing the chance for a blissful wedding, her mother heart attach, every success meant nothing for her if she has no one to share it with... i don't want to spoil the story but eventually you will know that this is one of those cliché movies that in the end everything is good... but it was the way the director focused on her emotions.. every scene you could feel her regrets... thats priceless... i just love how she was happy and giggling after she came back from the future... i love her every scene.. whew... watch this and you will love it.. it should be a classic Christmas love story... in the line of scrooche and miracle on the 42nd street ... time travel story never seize to amaze me on the what if's, what could have been's of one's Life journey...

• Fantastic Movie - Enough said.

  Wow. Can't believe there's only one review on this. Casting was superb, and the story was sweet. Can't believe myself didn't notice the movies from this channel sooner. Always have been a sucker for romantic comedies - even more so when a holiday is added to the mix. First saw Master Eloise Mumford was in Not Safe For Work, and she totally grabbed me in that low-budget movie, then Christmas with Holly - oh, that was awesome. She did excellent job here, and I sure hope to see more of her in Hallmark's holiday stories(Though, for this particular movie - the Dalai Lama part was a tad bit redundant. Just saying). Master Stahl-David... his performance with Master Zoe Kazan in In Your Eyes totally inspired a new story out of me, and in here, his chemistry with Mumford was really amazing. However, even with these amazing protagonists(even with Legendary Master Bill Shatner), of course the top spotlight stealer goes to Master Christopher Lloyd - I seriously did not expect to see him here, and I can't even begin to describe the excitement whenever I even think about his line; "Time travel?" Reference to Back to the Future - man, already made me excited with his cameo in A Million Ways to Die in the West, and now here - top score. The story goes really great: it's really helpful(even with all warnings against knowing too much about the future) to see what happens(or what would happen) in the next few years, to actually know the every step of your way, the ramifications every move you make would bring... then go back to the point of origin, and do things in according to your true self's heart. It's like the story Big Fish - the boy saw how he would die in the future, and learned that he would survive everything else that he came across - it's very helpful. Gosh, I just love so much about these Hallmark stories. Hope they never end. Fantastic work from this kind, open-minded twenty-five-year-old here in China, and may the wonders never fade, and the arrows of Cupid always aim true and find their marks. Congratulations.
