My Rating:

three-stars

 

My Thoughts:

I was a little disappointed in this movie. It didn’t meet my expectations you could say.

The acting was alright. I didn’t feel the chemistry between the two leading characters. I thought there was a better connection between the Nicholas and Jessica characters. Princess Christina was super cute. I enjoyed her interactions with everyone. However, I think my favorite was character was Princess Patricia. She was funny, and I didn’t know what to expect from her.

The story was sweet, but I felt disconnected somehow. The sets were beautiful, and the location was gorgeous.

Things that I liked:

  • When King Alexander knocked down the entire Christmas set on stage.
  • The Grinch King (title)
  • Princess Patricia with the headset on and directing everyone.
  • Nicolas and Jessica’s growing relationship
  • The ice show at the beginning
  • Katie, Alex and Christina making cookies together

Movie Quote:

Christmas is the time to open your heart.

Kisses:

four-kisses There were three kisses between Nicholas and Jessica and one between Katie and Alex.
