As I began to wind down after a very busy thanksgiving day, I turned on the hallmark channel because I love to watch the holiday flicks this time of year. I was excited to find out there was a new movie on "The Town that Christmas Forgot" so I began to watch, well after about the first 15 minutes I found myself saying "I can't believe they actually made a movie like this", it went from bad to absolutely ridiculous in about 20 minutes. This has to be one of the silliest Christmas movies I've ever seen, are they kidding me with this stuff. I honestly was laughing at one point almost feeling embarrassed for lauren holly and the others. My husband didn't even recognize Lauren Holly whom I love, but I'm not sure what she's been doing to her face but it isn't pretty. She was so so cute....it's very sad. Anyway, the scene where the young daughter is singing on stage with the young boys was horrible...very silly, in my opinion, all the acting in this movie was borderline atrocious. Unfortunately, this is a Christmas flick to FORGET! Sorry Hallmark....you missed your mark with this one:(
12/05/10- After visiting this page again to read some of the other reviews of this movie, I realized that I may have seriously offended the young girl who plays the daughter in the movie and I apologize for that. I don't think it was so much her acting that bothered me but I guess maybe the way the scene was presented to us, I'm sure she's a fine actress and I wish the best for her. I still must stand true to what I said though about the movie overall, I think it was one of the worst holiday flicks I've seen. PS- I did in fact enjoy Stephanie's role!
