5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best movie!, July 26, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: A Christmas Visitor (DVD)

Not only does this movie have great actors in it, but it also has a story line that will touch your heart. "A Christmas Visitor" is a story about a family struggling to deal with not only the death of their son who died in action in the Gulf War, but with the possibility of their daughter having brest cancer. The family has not celebrated Christmas ever since their son died because when the news about their son arrived, it was 2 days before Christmas, until a mysterious visitor arrives and tells them what the meaning of Christmas is all about. This movie will take you on an emotional rollercoaster. One minute you'll be overjoyed and the next, your feelings will be crushed by something so overwhelming in the movie. This movie will take you from the edge of your seat, into the lives and hearts of these characters and will show you how they are so devoted to their son that they will even give up a Christmas in order to preserve and keep the memories of their deceased son. This is a tearjerker especially when they show flashbacks of their son and his life, but if you are really into a great movie, I fully recommand it. You won't regret it. This movie will teach you about family and love in the face of ruin and sadness and it will show how love and faith can withstand anything.

This review is from: A Christmas Visitor (DVD)

William Devane was fantastic in this movie, as usual! The movie has it all...drama,intrigue, excitement, tears, humor, romance, patrioticsm and the Christmas Spirit! Although a little predictable, it is still a wonderful movie the entire family can watch! It isn't often you see a movie that leaves you with a good feeling in your heart!!!! This is one of those movies! A great movie to see anytime, not just at Christmas! A wonderful, thought-provoking movie for those who have a lost a loved one in the war!

The "Holidays" seem to be synonmous with "family". For this family, there are no more holidays because their son was killed in the Gulf War. You don't have to have lost a loved one to understand the emotions in this story. There's only a few characters but they play their parts superbly. My favorite Christmas movie.
