A Glenbrooke Christmas (2020 TV Movie)

Better than some

[7/10 · 19 December 2021]

This movie is one of the better Christmas movies courtesy of Hallmark, with good performances by an attractive cast.

A huge plus for me was that I could actually understand what the actors were saying, their diction was so good, which isn't always the case in Hallmark movies (female actors. In particular, often either talk like machine-gun, have shrill voices, or sound like frogs croaking).

Those voices!

[6/10 · 17 December 2021]

Do American movie-makers forget that their films are distributed worldwide?

This movie was spoiled for me when I had difficulty understanding what Katrina Law and many of her female co-stars were saying.

This happens regularly in US 'made for TV' movies. I rarely have a problem with male stars, but the females often have terrible voices or talk so fast that their words become jumbled and difficult to decipher.

Christmas Unwrapped (2020 TV Movie)

Terrible

[3/10 · 9 December 2021]

The main reason we switched off this movie half-way through was the annoying voice of Amber Stevens West. I know they don't get the best actors for some of these Christmas movies, but at least they could get someone who can talk properly.
