But the plan goes astray when Heath and Wyatt develop romantic feelings. We then moved on to “Dashing in December.” This movie follows businessman Wyatt as he tries to convince his mother and the handsome new farmhand Heath to sell his family ranch. They were old friends who didn’t talk often and then one day fell in love and then lived Happily Ever After! Sara had some blonde moments such as when she said, “There’s a lot I didn’t realize until those gifts started showing up at my doorstep…” When did she realize anything? She was going on date after date, not realizing that her BFF is completely in love with her. Despite the very romantic, boy next door plot, there was no chemistry. Daniel gave gifts that proved how much he knew about her and loved her, and Sara ignored all the signs that it was the person she had known forever sending the gifts. The movie was a series of obvious events. Surprise! It’s her best friend, Daniel, who’s had a lifelong crush on her. As Sara goes on dates, trying to find her one true love, she is also searching for her anonymous gift giver. Our second Hallmark movie was “Eight Gifts of Hanukkah.” The movie followed Sara, a dentist in an unnamed small town, as she receives gifts each night of Hanukkah from a mysterious suitor. I would rate it on a scale from “would never watch again” to “would watch again”, as “would watch again if we were really bored.” The main lead was the hottest out of the five movies, and the romance did not disgust us. The movie looked very low quality, but that is expected from a TV channel production. They fall back in love, and oh, did we mention he’s famous? He saves her talent show, then romance is really booming. She has tension with her ex, but ignores it so she can fulfill her girl-boss needs. There’s conflict, not a lot, but some that gets the story moving. She sets a goal for herself, she wants a job at a major music venue in Las Vegas. The movie had the layout that every cheesy, basic love story has. She has the perfect life, perfect job, has instant comebacks and a hot ex. If we had to use one word to describe Claire it would be girl-boss. The movie followed Claire who works as an event planner who works at her family’s hotel in Tahoe, California, as she plans the yearly talent show. We started off our Hallmark marathon with the classic “Christmas in Tahoe,” a movie about an event planner and her ex-boyfriend, a famous musician. Over a course of unusual events, they meet their soulmate, who was either a childhood friend, ex-flame, or perhaps a coincidental meeting. They are all single, or soon to be single, and were not looking for a significant other. They have their profession: doctor, journalist, event planner. The movies started off with the female – or sometimes male lead (one movie on our list was not a hallmark movie – it was a gay rodeo romance). While watching 5 Hallmark movies in a row, we realized two things: They all had the same plots and some disturbingly looked like one of our dads. The perfect plot, romance, setting, and… hot rich men. Hallmark Christmas movies are every woman’s dream.
