Our Christmas Mural

I was waiting to see the mural. In fact, there was no mural! The movie is titled our Christmas MURAL! I was duped and I am offended. The woman was not a good artist. Her mother meddled in her affairs. She entered her daughter in the mural contest. Then she met a teacher. He was the guy in the bold type, so he's a decent actor. The movie had potential but the ending fell super flat. The dad sets up the workshop for them, then they add a bunch of Christmas decorations to her workshop. Anyways my beef with this movie is that the mural was very poorly done and also wasn't a real mural. I can deal with fake snow and bad acting and ugly sets but this is literally the title of the film.

6.0 stars. Surprised to see only one review, so I'm perplexed. Usually you'll see about a dozen reviews for any given Hallmark movie within a couple weeks of the original release. When I see only one review before my own, now weeks later, I become skeptical. First thought, what is wrong with this film, or what time of day did it air and did nobody watch it? Or maybe nobody cares to comment because it's one of the most boring and ordinary experiences, so average, perfectly average...it has to be perfectly average, because when a movie is bad it generates a plethora of negative responses. I guess I'll settle on 'Our Christmas Mural' is so average, so perfectly average that nobody felt the urge to say a single word about it. But what about those Hallmark aficionados that are "obligated", the multitude of completist Hallmark fans? Where are you people?

Will and single mom/widow Olivia do not get off on the right foot when they meet. "That man is hoarding paint!"-Olivia "Maybe he really did need all of that paint some kind of art emergency."-mom Olivia is a big city artist who has lost her inspiration since her husband's passing. When she finds out that she may be loosing her job at the museum in New York, she goes home for the holidays with her son. There she discovers that there is an art competition to paint a mural in town. With a lot of pushing from her mom, who enters her without her knowledge and then some help from her dad...and the "paint hoarder", who turns out to be not only the runner up, but an art therapist who is able to help her son Parker, she wins the contest and paints the town mural. The paint hoarder turns out to be not only a nice guy, but funny, sensitive and an amazing help to both her and her son. Kind of a sad topic for a holiday film....but the romance was wonderful and Dan Jeannotte, who plays Will, is wonderful and really makes this film. There is some fun banter between the two as they fairly quickly go from gate to love. This feels on is pretty neat and tidy, even though it has a depressing start. Dan Jeannotte Really does make this film, so if you are a fan you should watch it.
