I watched it because I liked the show, "Being Erica," and I will watch anything with Erin Karpluk. I've seen enough Hallmark Christmas movies to know what I was getting, and there was nothing special here. It was like a low budget Hallmark movie... a very low budget Hallmark movie. Very, very, very low.....
The low budget look - bad lighting, poor green screens, etc... didn't really bother me. What did bother me was the non-stop generic Christmas music playing non-stop through the whole movie. If anyone reading this is involved with making low budget movies, NEVER have a nonstop generic music soundtrack playing the whole time. All other shortcomings can be overlooked, but the music was distracting and terrible.
Anyway, it was about what I expected - pretty cheesy - but I got to see Erin Karpluk so I was happy.
