Christmas in July 2022 - Movie #13 🩱🏖🎄


This movie might be your standard traditional holiday movie with the save a something, misunderstandings, and what not. And yes it's pretty basic and predictable, but I really enjoyed it. The leads had chemistry, and there were some nice romantic moments. There was a charm amongst the characters and the romance of it all was fun. Thought the community coming together was a nice touch, this lady is super mayor ain't nobody voting her out. The politics of it all aren't really realistic, but who cares. There's also a theme of forgiveness which I felt was appropriate because 'tis the season after all. Out of all the Corey Sevier projects I've seen him act and direct in this one's my favorite. Totally enjoyed this movie, would absolutely watch it again. One of the better holiday films from Lifetime's so so output for the 2021 holiday season. 

My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ 




Where to Watch: Lifetime, Prime Video
