A Very Merry Mix-Up Audience Reviews

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Jonah Abbott There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Kamila Bell This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Dark_Lord_Mark I have never looked at Hallmark movies, till 2016. I brushed them off but after watching 15 of them, YES 15 in a week, I must say, most are quite good and well acted and well written.This movie is no exception. Some familiar characters with familiar plots but it is somewhat refreshing characters. Yes you have a lead ready to be married only to meet another man, but the story is about Christmas, love and fate and does it all exist and intertwine? The movie is about accidental meetings, disaster, and accidental misunderstandings couple with good family and a lesson on life and love and how we maybe should love the simple things.Go watch this movie, 9.5 out of 10.
movie buff This movie truly deserves no stars (IMO, that's how terrible it was!), but since I unbelievably forced myself to watch it to the end, I will unbelievably force myself to give it one star! But that's only because I can't give it anything less than that! I really wanted to like this movie since I noticed it had the same similarity as While You Were Sleeping starring Sandra Bullock. While that movie was a little silly at times, at least it held my attention throughout and Sandra Bullock, Bill Pullman and the other actors were more believable. This one was just a total train wreck! I found too many of the scenes just so downright ridiculous, I wondered if the writer was half asleep when she wrote the script! The way how Will proposes is stupid and the way how Alice responds is even more stupid! Will never gets Alice's messages after she leaves, yet he somehow manages to get the doctor's! And Alice never once thinks to try calling him when she gets to the house! She makes a total goof out of herself trying to eat a frosted cookie by getting it all over her mouth, and after Matt wipes it off her mouth with his finger and then sucks it off his finger was just really gross! I mean come on, couldn't they have thrown some napkins on the table for the two of them to use? There were plenty more ridiculous or irritating scenes, but I would be here forever telling them and how bad the acting was! And for Alicia Witt's character, they could have/should have made her look a little more presentable. Especially since she was a business women who owned her own store, she could have fixed her hair, wore some make-up, nicer clothing, etc. Yeah, I'll admit I am a sucker for some of the cheesy Hallmark movies and chick flicks but I'm sorry, this one was a complete and total flop!
utgard14 Enjoyable Hallmark Christmas movie starring the always lovely and likable Alicia Witt as a struggling shop owner who becomes engaged to a jerk real estate agent. She takes a trip to meet his family but, through a series of events, she winds up spending the holidays with the wrong family and falling in love with the guy she thought was her fiancé's brother. It's all very contrived and maybe a little While You Were Sleeping-ish, but it's hard to dislike anything with Alicia Witt in it. Her character here is a bit of a ditz at times and we're never shown what in the world she saw in the jerk fiancé to begin with. How he even got a second date with her boggles the mind. But this is Hallmark and, if we've learned anything from Hallmark over the years, it's that the quickest way to meet your soul mate is to become engaged to a terrible person.As I said, this is as contrived a setup as you'll likely ever see in a movie. All the pieces have to fit together just right and in the right order at all times for this to work. Of course they do and it's fine. I don't watch Hallmark movies for great plots anyway. The characters are nice and the romance between Alicia's character and Mark Wiebe's character is handled well. One thing stood out to me and it's something I've seen before in other Hallmark movies. Wiebe's character builds furniture for a living but the movie makes sure to tell us he has a degree in economics. Why is it that in Hallmark romcoms the men always have to be either rich or "capable of being rich but choosing not to be?" It does seem strange, at least to me. Is there a big cry for pragmatism in romance stories nowadays?
boblipton There's no orange-colored sky, but Alicia Witt is a cute, giggly carrot-top in this one. Her meet cute with Mark Wiebe is they get into a traffic accident. She's been sent on alone by his brother, her fiancé, to meet her family and spend Christmas with his family; Alicia and Mark meet at the airport and he gives her a lift to their house... but it's the wrong family. Her fiancé has the same name.It's a cute set-up and very charming, although the contrast between the two families, played for comic effect, is handled like a sledge hammer. In addition, her fiancé is intent on making a lot of money by having her sell her beloved antique shop on 23rd Street -- although it fronts in Soho, several miles and four neighborhoods away -- to a real estate developer for a lot of money.Well, no one ever claimed that the scripts for Hallmark seasonal romantic comedies were subtle. There are a couple of laughs along the way. If it's not great, it's all handled competently.
