Is this all we can expect from Lindsay Lohan?
This pre-Christmas movie was not what I expected. It had a predictable plot and an ending that was meh. However, the movie still delivered with a Lindsay Lohan starrer. This will be a Christmas Miracle movie that will be sure to release as we head into the season.
Lindsay stars as Sierra Belmont, a ditzy damsel in distress who is dating an “influencer” called Tad. Sierra is the rich heiress of one of the biggest chains of hotel resorts – The Belmont Summit Resort. ..
Sierra’s father, Mr. Belmont, does not approve of Sierra’s relationship with Tad and does not want it to continue. Tad has other plans for when he proposes to her on the top of a cliff when it’s been snowing heavily.
Jake Russell, the owner of a smaller hotel in Summit Springs town, accepts Sierra’s proposal and they make it Instagram official before she accidentally falls off the cliff and is found by Sarah, the daughter of Jake’s late wife. To no one’s surprise, Sierra has lost her memory and has to live with Jake and his family made up of his daughter, Avy and the mother of his late wife. Sierra (who now goes by Sarah) has to aim and regain her memory while Jake is unsurprisingly falling in love with her.
It seems like Avy’s Christmas wish to see her father find love again could soon be coming true. The story of this Netflix original is not out of the blue and seems very typical to any other Christmas movies we are being presented with lately. The narrative is predictable and so is the end leaving very little to the imagination. ..
My question to the hotel staff is that if Sierra is the heiress of one of the biggest hotel resorts in the vicinity, how is it that no one knows her? It’s also insane how the hotel staff her father has left behind when he is out on a business trip, days before Christmas is oblivious of a missing heiress. Sierra is missing for four full days at the most and she still falls in love with Jake at that time and so does he.
The only thing that made the story interesting was Sierra falling off the cliff but the way that the plot was exposed was extremely poor. The falling was not a tragedy but a comedy of errors which is typical for a Christmas movie and is just as funny as my expectation of a logical plot from this movie.
Lindsay Lohan’s return to the big screen is endearing, but it would have been nice to see her in something more serious and organic than a mere Christmas flick. The Mean Girls callback with ‘Jingle Bell Rock’ was a fun nostalgic moment though.
The other characters in the movie are just there and there is not much to say about the performances of the actors involved in this project. Setting the movie in the Christmas season makes it an easy fix as most of the narration is done indoors because of the snow.
This holiday movie tries to use the Christmas setting as an opportunity to show off some of the same tricks that have been used in other movies like the Princess Switch series. However, this time around, viewers are not likely to be blown away by the romance that is expected. Instead, this movie is just a leisurely watch for people who want to kill time during the holiday season. If you are looking for a movie that will make your heart race and leave you breathless, then this is not the movie for you.
Christmas is a time of joy and happiness. It’s a time to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ and all that he has done for us. But sometimes things can go wrong. Sometimes people don’t get what they want, and that can lead to hurt feelings and a lack of trust. That’s why it’s important to be careful when falling for someone who seems like they might be perfect for you. First, ask yourself whether you really want to be with this person. Are you sure that you’re ready to commit yourself to them? If not, it might be best to stay away from them until you’re sure that you’re ready for something more serious. Next, make sure that you’re not just looking for someone who will make your life easier. You should also be prepared to put in the effort – both emotionally and physically – if this person is interested in you. Finally, remember that Christmas is a time of love and happiness, not sadness and pain. So don’t let yourself get hurt by someone who doesn’t seem worth your time or effort
