| User ReviewDavid LAn Instant Classic! I expected this flic to be a sappy love story. But when they forgot to poke holes in Grandpa's box, i couldn't stop laughing at his rigor mortis body! hillarious comedy |
| User ReviewChristopher CThis is a wonderful Family Christmas move! This is a movie you have to see. Bert takes his grandaughter that he did not know he had into his home while his daughter was in the hospital. Bert and becca have a lot of fun together and Becca is a wonderful singer. This was a fun movie to watch, I loved Ernest Borgnine and Juliette goglia in this movie. They both were great in this movie. |

| User ReviewMegan RThis is the BEST Christmas movie I have ever seen!!!! Highly recommend if you're looking for a heartwarming Christmas movie!!!! |
| User ReviewSue BMy favorite family Christmas movie! It's hard to find a Christmas movie which isn't themed around romance, so this one is a great find. ...It's a gem...sweet story, great veteran cast, lots of fun! Ernest Borgnine puts his heart into the story. A happy, feel-good movie. Love it! story story |
| User ReviewMarcie FAnother surprisingly good Hallmark Original Christmas movie. Great cast, good story, better editing. Ernest Borgnine's Golden Globe nominated performance as Bert is his best performance in probably more than 20 years... even if you include his role as Dominic in Airwolf. |
| User ReviewJohn Bheart felt movie true forgiveness is powerful |
| User ReviewKyle MBy its title, storyline and brand, you'd be expecting it to be a heartwarming tale. It was indeed heartwarming, as well nicely-performed, and it's a fun, enjoyable time for families. (A-) (Full review coming soon) |
| User Reviewcli oFor a 'made-for-TV' movie it was worth while. I like Ernest Borgnine, even if he is a bit old. |
| User ReviewLenin PErnest defines the character unlike Goglia and the story is just not good. |
