Oh wow y’all! Talk about the surprise movie of the season! Here’s a quick re-cap and my full two cents.
Quick Re-Cap
Harmony was expecting a promotion at work, when her boss tells her she’s being downsized. She’s being paid through the end of the year, so she decides to return home to visit her mom. While home, she’s paired with her ex-boyfriend Kyle to direct this year’s holiday chorus. Now, the church program needs to raise $10,000 or they will lose their building.
My Two Cents
When you’re part of a Hallmark Movie Showdown Bracket group, you’re assigned to watch a specific list of movies and sometimes you’re super excited for a movie (hello The Santa Stakeout) and sometimes you say to yourself, “ugh, I don’t want to watch THAT movie!” This movie was definitely on the I wouldn’t ordinarily watch it list, but I’m glad I did!
There’s nothing new in this movie. We have a young woman who thought she was getting a promotion, but instead was axed and a church that’s about to lose it’s building. We’ve seen this a lot over the years. So, if you’re looking for new and different, definitely go somewhere else.
What this movie lacks in originality, it makes up for in heart. I’m a total sucker for a second chance romance. Seriously guys. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. I always fall for the second chance romance movies. Plus! Add in a some fantastic music and a great cast and I’m sold!
I absolutely loved Harmony! I loved her standing up to the boss when he was firing her. I loved her having a sleepover with her mom and sister. And I loved her believing in herself by the end of the movie.
The song at the end…just WOW! I was seriously almost brought to tears. Harmony was amazing! I will admit, I was a little unsure how the movie would end – I mean which happy ending it would have. I was very happy with the ending they chose.
If you’re unsure about this movie, I suggest giving it a try. It was a seriously good surprise! Definitely on my Countdown to Christmas must watch list. Happy movie watching y’all!
