“This movie had sassy written all over it, but yet I sat through it till the very end.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe story told in u0026quot;Twelve Men of Christmasu0026quot; is right out of the academy of clichés; a corporate high-end New York woman going to a small town in Montana to get away, and here she ends up taking advantage of all her skill she acquired in New York, in order to raise funds for the local search and rescue crew. Alrighty then, not really believable, but still a movie came from it. The story is, of course, the type of story that you have figured out the course it will take and how it will end right from the beginning. So no big surprise there!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAs for the cast and acting, well I canu0026#39;t really say that it was bad. I found the cast to actually be good enough, though I havenu0026#39;t really seen any of the faces before (and the head of Kristin Chenoweth is kind of hard to get around), though I seem to recall having seen Josh Hopkins somewhere before, though I canu0026#39;t recall where exactly. Josh was actually the most memorable of all people in the movie here.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe setting of the movie was fantastic. Really nice and beautiful scenery, nature, and an idyllic town setting. That was so nice to look at.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere were a couple of times throughout the movie where the movie might have actually become funny, but it never shined through. It was always just brooding beneath the surface. But of course, this wasnu0026#39;t really a comedy.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDespite it being a super predictable movie, I still found u0026quot;Twelve Men of Christmasu0026quot; to be good enough entertainment, though you have to fight your way through a tsunami of sassyness along the way. But ultimately, I was entertained, but I doubt that I will be returning to the movie for a second watching, ever. This is the type of movie that will go well with women with big romantic hearts and suckers for sassy movies.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOh, and before I forgot. I noticed the coolest blooper ever in this movie. If you manage to sit through the movie, take a good look at the drummer in the background at the pre-launch party for the calender. He goes crazy at the drums at a certain time, and it doesnu0026#39;t even match the drumming sounds from the actual music playing. But wait, it gets better. The guy isnu0026#39;t even hitting the drums, hi-hats or cymbals, he is just drumming in midair, and it is so obviously clear to see. I had to go back in the movie to watch it a second time, it was just that priceless. Hilarious stuff right there.”
