Loved this #itsawonderfullifetime movie. Great chemistry between the 2 leads because they're married in real life❤. Typical story but isn't that what we all want in 2020. Predictable love!

I absolutely love this movie. It is the best lgbtq Christmas movie I have ever seen. It was really well written apart from the small disagreement about the moving part. It wasn't about coming out! There was no friends/ parents drama, it felt like a normal couple movie but better because I felt reprsented. It reminded me of the feelings you get when you read a really good fanfiction.

I guess some people in the the gay community will be extatic about The Christmas Setup because the gay-themed movies are in short supply but on a closer look this movie is boring, is not memorable and loaded with cliches. Hugo is a stereotypical gay guy: he is oversensistive, he is flamboyant and, yes, he's got BFF. At Christmas he travels home taking his BFF along. In his native town he stumbles on his old schoolmate who just happens to be gay too. And actualy this is it. The whole story can be summarised in a couple of sentences but he movie takes 90 minutes to tell it to us. And yes! The movie is saccharine and sentimental to the extreme. What do you want? It is made-for-tv flick after all.

Here's my take on this flick - 1. Pro - it brings to the forefront that 'love' or 'attraction' between two people of the same gender is perfectly and absolutely normal !! And worthy of a family type story. Bravo for that ! ! ! 2. Con - the production values are unacceptable ! Using spring or summer for winter just does not work. The directors can spray tons of - whatever that white stuff is suppose to look like snow - on everything but you can't hide summer green. Outside of the above this is a typical Xmas romance story.

Incredible Christmas movie with a cuter than ever gay story line and more. Not your typical Christmas "Hallmark Like" movie. Much more so. Loose yourself in the fantasy that is this progressive Christmas movie with some really hot guys, a couple of parallel story lines, and Fran Drescher. Soon to be a Christmas classic I'm sure.

The movie was not bad. Especially for a christmas movie it was fun to watch. Although I'm a huge christmas movie fan, most of them are quite low quality. This was okay, except for the season mess-up. But. There is only one reason this movie has this kind of top movie-score: LHBTIQ+. It's a good thing that more movies show more diversity and show that it does not matter if you're attracted to same genders, for example. But, that does not mean the movie itself is worth a 7,3. If they were not gay, it would be rated between a 5 and 6. Not my way of reviewing movies on quality. People are literally saying they give it a higher score because of the LHBTIQ+ part. Well, yeah. Lets say I agree to disagree, tho. This should be a platform to rate movies based on quality.
