“Iu0026#39;ve been on a mission this lockdown holiday season to watch a lot of holiday movies. I did not look forward to this one because I had seen the lead bomb in an earlier movie. Also, Iu0026#39;m reaching the burned-out point of the holiday movie season. Despite all that, I kind of like it.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe plot is pretty typical. Hollywood star, Dylan, slums in his home town. This time heu0026#39;s there to save his old school. The school is going to be closed and the principal is trying to save it. A real witch of a starlet is doing everything she can to hurt Dylan and even shows up in town. Thereu0026#39;s a potential film far away hanging on Dylanu0026#39;s radar. Thereu0026#39;s even a snowball fight which is actually done in a clever way.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDespite too much of the familiar, there is a bit of a different feel to it. Thereu0026#39;s some funny moments and some romantic ones. Cindy Sampson and Steve Byers have decent chemistry. It is a little odd how quickly Addison goes from wanting to totally avoid Dylan to spending every free moment just hanging with him, but thatu0026#39;s how these movies work.”
