My Thoughts:
A Welcome Home Christmas is a cute Christmas movie where Chloe Marquee is helping newly discharged veterans settle into civilian life. When she is assigned Michael Fischer who is having a hard time finding his place. Along the way though Chloe has too many things going and decides that Michael should take over Operation Santa Claus. However, she will still assist with it too.
For a movie filmed in the summer, I have to say that they did a great job with it. Granted we can see that it is still summertime during the film as there are flowers on some bushes despite everyone wearing long sleeves. I loved their attempt at having snow though with the cotton or foam that they used.
The story that they are doing with this film is fabulous. Everything about it was a nice plot change from the other Christmas movies. Jana Kramer and Brandon Quinn had great chemistry together and I loved the way you could see their attraction building. The sets were good. The ending is so happy.
