🎄 2021 Christmas Binge Watch Movie #105 🎄

At one point in this movie they are throwing and man handling a ham which is like a sin in my book, but the ham was clearly fake. Act like there’s some weight to that thing and not like it’s a stuffed bag.  


Any who, there’s nothing bad per se about this movie. We’ve got a potential family business buyout, a daughter struggling to match her mother’s artistic level, a precocious child, an all knowing father, and two people falling in love despite the dreaded last-minute obstacle. It’s set in Santa Fe, and filmed there as well, so location wise it’s all nice. Honestly I was bored by the whole thing. The romance of this movie was a snore, I couldn’t get into it. There was no chemistry between Mario Lopez and Emeraude Toubia. It was like watching paint dry. The best part of this movie was Aimee Garcia and her character’s struggle to live up to her mother’s legacy. The family dynamic of the story was the most interesting aspect of this movie. 

My Rating: ⭐⭐ 







Where to Watch: Lifetime, Prime Video
