I wasn't sure about this film to start with. I think it was because I didn't fancy the lead male this time, but rather the spare instead. However, as the film developed, the lead grew on me and actually has a very natural way of acting. The rest of the cast do a good job too.

The story is sweet and full of Christmassy things, morals and romance, but what separates it from others is the fact that it takes the time to acknowledge Hanukkah at the as well. We say Happy Holidays, but for most of us I think we still associate that with Christmas, so it's nice to see the blending of the two in this film. After all, there must be hundreds of families out there that celebrate both or even just those that want to see themselves represented.

A nice story no matter what you celebrate.
