Twas the Text Before Christmas (2023 TV Movie)
NEW on NETFLIX 30 November 2024
(No. 2 on top-ten-movie-list - after Lindsay Lohan X-mas romcom Our Little Secret)
High-quality - Merritt Patterson and Trevor Donovan shine.
I've often said that these Hallmark/Lifetime/GAC Family movies live or die based on their casting of the lead actors and how much chemistry those leads have. Safe to say, the producers got it one thousand percent correct when casting Canadian Merritt Patterson (one of my favourites, from ever since her early Hallmark days, through her incredibly risqué turn in 'Heatwave' and recent work on GAC Family) and Trevor Donovan, who is a sold actor and can always be counted on to turn in a good performance.
If Patterson and Donovan were good together two years ago in 'Jingle Bell Princess', they are GREAT here in 'Twas the Text Before Christmas', which features an inventive (if somewhat unlikely in real life) scenario that takes place over three Christmases (similar to one of my favourites, 'Four Christmases and a Wedding') and a well-cast group of secondary actors.
This slow-developing and pleasant movie is definitely one of the better Christmas movies you're likely to see in 2023.
