DVD Review: THE CHRISTMAS CARD
Summary: 5 Stars
I BELIEVE I MAY HAVE COMMENTED ABOUT THIS MOVIE BEFORE. THIS CHRISTMAS MOVIE IS ONE OF THE BETTER ONES I HAVE SEEN IN YEARS. MANY OF THE CHRISTMAS MOVIES THAT ARE CRANKED OUT TODAY CENTERS AROUND FAMILY SQUABBLES, AND NONSENSE. LOTS OF FUSSING, FIGHTING AND BITTER MOMENTS. THOUGH I HAVE SEEN THIS MOVIE ABOUT A THOUSAND TIMES AND I REALLY LOVE IT, I TOO AGREE THAT THE MOVIE HAS "HOLES" IN IT. IT IS RATHER INCOMPLETE IN SOME AREAS. I DO NOT AGREE THAT CODY AND FAITH DID NOT HAVE ANY CHEMISTRY. THEY DID SPEND TO MUCH TIME TRYING TO AVOID EACH OTHER THOUGH. BUT THAT HAS TO BE RESPECTED. AFTER ALL FAITH HAD A BOYFRIEND. OBVIOUSLY SHE WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH PAUL. IF SHE HAD BEEN CODY MAY HAVE JUST RODE OFF INTO THE SUNSET. I WONDER IF THE STORY MAY HAVE CARRIED MORE WEIGHT IF IT HAD HAD THE TWO COMMUNICATING BY LETTER FOR A WHILE. THEN HAVE CODY TO COME INTO TOWN AND HAVE THEM TO SOMEHOW MEET. I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ARMY MEN BUT I CAN IMAGINE THAT THEY CAN AND DO GET VERY LONELY. SO GETTING A LETTER FROM AN "UNKNOWN FEMALE" CAN BE PRETTY EXCITING. I HOPE THIS MOVIE HAS A SEQUEL. I LOVE TO PLAY WITH IDEAS ABOUT WHAT SHOULD BECOME OF CHARACTERS IF ANOTHER MOVIE CAN BE MADE. SADLY LOIS NETTLETON HAS PAST ON. ALL IN ALL THIS IS STILL A MUST MUST MUST SEE. SO BUY IT NOW.DVD Review: Cute Movie. Predictable. Bad Editing.
Summary: 3 Stars
This movie was a cute, cheap chick flick.
It had good messages here and there, but it lacked some real "meat"
Really bad editing. The scenes are really choppy, so is the dialouge.
I recomend renting it before you buy.
DVD Review: Disappointing
Summary: 2 Stars
Perhaps I've seen too many good movies (most of them older movies) lately but this one really disappointed me. I read all the great reviews and ordered it expecting more than what I saw in this movie. The performances were stiff and wooden, there was little chemistry between the Cody (Newton) and Faith (Evans), the story seemed elementary and didn't flow well from one scene to the other. In fact I saw little chemistry between most of the actors in this movie--the "acting" between the players was obvious, especially between Newton and Evans, even the last scene lacked chemistry between the two, when you can't get the final love scene emotionally charged there is definitely something missing--dropping the takeout plate and throwing your arms wide open isn't exactly a tender, touching love scene--Newton at least did better there than Evans. I don't mind obvious movie endings but this one made me wonder where the "magic" was with any of the characters. Wish I had saved my money. DVD Review: The Christmas Card
Summary: 5 Stars
Very good movie (a love story but not overpowering). I liked the story and have watched it many times already.
Description of The Christmas Card
Once in a while, a movie comes along that reminds us how powerful love can be. In the midst of war in Afghanistan, Captain Cody Cullen (John Newton, "Desperate Housewives") is touched by lovely card sent by Faith Spelman (Alice Evans, "The Chris Isaak Show") from the small picturesque town of Nevada City, California. As months pass, the card never leaves his side, giving him the strength to survive and setting him on a mission to find her. The Christmas Card has received massive critical acclaim and audiences are raving. Now for the first time on DVD, Emmy-nominated (TBD) The Christmas Card is available with great bonus features and is the perfect gift for this holiday season!General DVDs
