Another Hallmark "boiler plate" plot. They need to make fewer movies of better quality - the best one this year, so far, is My Christmas Family Tree. I love the vintage - Hallmark Hall of Fame movies - they just don't seem to make many movies like that anymore.

This movie put me in the mood for the holidays. I love the diversity. So well written and a joy to watch. It's about time Hallmark modernized and this movie is a great example.

All about one family like every cared about their importance. This movie desperately needed additional characters. The accidental meets between the two main characters got old fast.

The actors play off each other really well and the characters have decent chemistry. But the story has too many sub plots to really stay invested in the main story. The description of this movie puts a bunch of emphasis on a time capsule but it's hardly ever mentioned. The main focus seemed to be more on the tavern and the nephew's cooking. The lead actress has a story line of becoming a novelist wanting to go to New York but there's really no explanation as to why New York and not San Francisco where her ancestors actually wanted to get to 100 years prior. All in all it's a decent movie with good charm, but the story is too muddled to stay interested.

5/10 - some questionable acting did not do anything to help an already bland and overly run-of-the-mill Hallmark Christmas flick (but it was nice to see Jordin Sparks!)
