A Castle for Christmas

lauracgeorge shared a tip "I wasn’t feeling this one. I think they picked a great male lead, but the female lead didn’t work for me. Appreciated that I hadn’t heard this exact plot before, but I was super bored by the predictable formula anyway. Secondary characters were given hardly any character development so their growths (the little that existed) felt empty. I wouldn’t bother watching this one 🤷‍♀️"

gina_carbone shared a tip "A typical Christmas romance - you know the formula. The biggest draw for this one is the gorgeous countryside scenery. Not going to make it into my annual film rotations, but sweet enough to watch once."

taylor_marionneaux shared a tip "It’s hard not to find a movie set in a Scottish castle at Christmas charming. It was a bit slow at times, but overall, the movie hit the mark of a feel-good Christmas story."

s.jocelynn_press shared a tip "It was a bit cheesy but The Scottish scenery, architecture and good cheer made it a pleasant movie. I had to see Brooke Shield since she has not been in anything for a while."

jane_bownes shared a tip "They really need an option for OK. I neither liked this movie nor hated it. It was a typical holiday romance. Cary Elwes was great as always."

infinatedawn shared a tip "Loved the setting and the fact that the story was centered on an older couple. (A lot of Christmas movies are centered around folks in their 20s and 30s if they aren’t aimed at children) The male lead had a lot of red flags tho!! He didn’t even know how to apologize properly! Again I really love the concept, but I think the female lead deserved better!!"

valerie_8818 shared a tip "Really it’s another Christmas feel good movie, but better than I expected it to be. The supporting cast lent a more humanizing spin to the movie."

cori_stalter shared a tip "Loved the movie. But (unpopular opinion warning) I can't stand Brooke Shields. I wish they had picked ANYONE else and I wouldve been happier."

beth_shugrue shared a tip "If one of the choices was ok I would have picked that. I didn’t love it but I also didn’t hate it either. Predictable story. I was glad to see more mature actors in the lead roles. The scenery and architecture- whether it was actually Scotland or not was nice."
