Don't Mess Up- Get Organized for Christmas and Watch this Movie
3 February 2018
Eric Close is the fun dynamic toy inventor who is a bit of a mess and Catherine Bell is the calm personal organizer who helps him. It is a fun movie. Listed as a Romance but it has a lot of humor and drama. Love the scenes where Catherine Bell is opening and asking what these two drawers are for. He replies as she opens these messy drawers "This is the drawer that we put the stuff that won't fit in the other drawers and that is the drawer we never open".

He has 2 kids and this makes everything work in the movie. The little girl is in her first role (she seems familiar though) and her part really adds to the drama of missing her mother who passed away and the disorganized life of her father. Catherine Bell is very good with her. We have some great toy shop scenes, especially when he is testing out the Santa Sleigh flyer. The ballerina toy and the last toy at the end are so well done. The title I guess was originally 12 days but then became "Christmas in the air" because of the Santa Sleigh toy that flies. Title is still not quite right. Maybe needs something about the 3 C's of organization Consolidate, Concentrate, ?.

I am a great Catherine Bell fan and loved the other Christmas movie she was in this year "Home for Christmas Day". This one is better due to Eric Close who is just great. The organization theme has my wife cleaning out drawers in our home so the movie effected us in a positive way. We will watch it again.
