5.0 out of 5 stars a perennial, December 3, 2004

By 

bookloversfriend (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mary Christmas (DVD)

I bought this movie a month ago and have watched it four times already! It stands up to it. This is a rare find. The story has a touch of Santa-magic about it, but is not ridiculously unreal. And the underlying story--about a child who wants a mommy for Christmas--is compelling and heartwarming. The remarkable thing is that this is done so well. None of the hostility and bad casting that add a sour note to other Christmas movies. Also, if the mother-daughter story is especially poignant for you, read the novel A Thanksgiving Miracle). This movie will renew your faith in just about everything and give you a positive outlook to face another day.

4.0 out of 5 stars a lovely little christmas film, September 15, 2004

By 

jessielee (southern utah, usa) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mary Christmas (DVD)

as a lover of all things christmas, this dvd caught my eye at the rental store where i work. i was surprised how much i enjoyed the story, especially the acting of young jenna boyd and tom bosley.

this is a sweet film and looks especially good for 'made for tv.'

i also enjoyed the commentary by director john schneider... it was mostly technical but i found hearing about his tricks to work under time constraints and a small budget interesting. he mentions his feeling that we need more family friendly movies... and i wholeheartedly agree. i'll take a little syrupy sweetness that uplifts over something that brings my spirit down any day.

i'll be adding this to my christmas film collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars A true family Christmas movie!, November 29, 2005

This review is from: Mary Christmas (DVD)

My family just watched this movie and love, love, love it! As a family Christmas movie collector, I am thrilled to be able to add this one to my collection...it's such a heartwarming story. I was completely surprised by the wonderful twist at the end. If you love the Hallmark Hall of Fame, Lifetime or Family Channel type of family Christmas movies like we do, then this is a must see for you!
NOTE TO HOLLYWOOD: Please continue making lots more of the family friendly movies that are free of sex, senseless violence and offensive language!!! The Boggs family thanks you!!!
