From the opening credits to the ridiculous Chuck’s Deluxe Dog Grooming truck, enjoy this movie for what it is a funny/corny Christmas movie.
Max Cooper and Lina Gordon both grew up in the same small town. They knew each other, but never dated. Now, they both live in the same city and were on the same flight home when the flight is cancelled and diverted to a nearby city due to a storm. They both need to make it home by Christmas Eve to be with their families, but when fate seems against them, will they make it in time?
Enjoy their travels by train, tractor, and of course, Chuck’s Grooming truck. Meet the many friends Max, but really, Lina makes and discover how important it is to be nice to people and treat others the way you want to be treated. If we all tried to be a little more like Lina, the world would be a little better.
And in case you couldn’t already tell, I absolutely loved Lina’s outlook on life. She’s a Creative Solutions Specialist. If you find yourself asking, “What in the world is that?!” You aren’t alone, Max was confused as well. Basically, take it for what it sounds like. When life hands you lemons, Lina makes lemonade, lemon curd, and lemon bars. Her upbeat attitude can lift anyone’s spirits! Even Max finds himself enjoying her company and never ending ideas.
If corny comedy isn’t your thing, then you might like A Christmas Detour more. If corny comedy is right up your alley, then give this movie a shot. Happy movie watching y’all!
