Ma belle inconnue de Noël

Of course this movie has the normal Hallmark formula. But, it's different because of the choice of cast. The cast is outstanding. The set design is wonderful. And the directing and scripts are great. I would recommend this movie to anyone who loves holiday themed movies. I love that this movie has children who are engaged in the movie activities and not just props. I would love to see more movies like this come from Hallmark.

"It's complicated". The holidays always are. Then the January credit card bills come. Ugh. Don't worry though because Hallmark is here to make you feel cheery and warm once again. Ho ho ho! Anyway Deliver by Christmas is my latest review. It was released in October of 2020 and was filmed during the summer of 2020. Could've fooled me. Talk about every scene looking like an effective, Yuletide pop-up card. Directed by Terry Ingram (an Xmas TV guy) and starring a dude who normally plays brooding types (Eion Bailey who might be above the material here), "Deliver" delivers plenty of saccharine-filled and/or sugary moments. After all, there were plenty of frosted Christmas cookies involved in the ornate making of Deliver by Christmas. So yeah, "Deliver" has some pedestrian line "deliveries" along with a frustrating premise that seems to prolong the inevitable. Heck, you gotta wonder if Deliver by Christmas could've even gotten made if cell phone technology didn't exist. You also gotta wonder how two people take so long to connect the dots of their kismet in a town where everybody knows everybody. "Deliver" is about a man and a woman named Josh and Molly (played by Bailey and the ravishing Alvina August). They meet randomly, text each other about baking tips, tint, and eventually get together in the days leading up to I guess, Christmas Eve. Josh is a widower, Molly is single and available, and there's some quasi chemistry involved between these nice-looking people. They kiss at the end and it looks a little staged and incumbent. Oh well. "Deliver" is a Hallmark flick and no matter how cheesy and how safe in terms of plot, the film's elaborate Christmassy look and December timing gets you in the holiday spirit. I'd take it over crap like 2004's Surviving Christmas any day.

Cute story that keeps you on the edge of your seat in a fun way, waiting for the leads to finally get together, and yes at last, the leads actually have chemistry. Fun Christmas movie worth a watch.

Dumbest critic I've ever writed. When Alvina says, "It's complicated," she's is exactly like Kelly McGinnis in Top Gun. (her eyes) Thornton has Keanu Reeves crooked smile. The list goes on and on. One female actress had Momoa's eyebrows. I just kept seeing EXACT replication of each actor's traits an deliveries while watching this movie. A well written movie, unlike this criteek. Told you it was dumb. Watch it and see if I'm not right tho. And yes, I can spel.
