The family just got done with their last event of the season. They're low-key celebrating as, for the first time in seven years, they won't be working on New Year's Eve... but put a pin on that.
Some plot spoilers.
Is it a cute-meet when the girl almost caves in the guy's skull with a golf club? I blame the guy for walking into the house unannounced. He's David Campos (Carlos PenaVega), come to stay at Jake's for a week or so. He's a documentary filmmaker who's in town waiting to hear if he'll get a grant. He's Jake's friend and former college roommate. That both he and Mia are into filmmaking, you'd have to chalk up to pure coincidence or unsubtle scriptwriting.
That last event of the season the Pearsons just did? One of the guests was Kate Clark (Pauline Egan), creator of a popular fashion website. Kate is in a bind. She's desperate to throw a New Year's Eve bash, never mind that New Year's Eve is eight days away. Mia and Jake are persuaded, reluctantly, to organize the thing. It's a daunting undertaking, but it's hard to say no when the client is offering double the usual rates for a week's work. And one simply cannot pass up a chance to get more exposure and bolster the client list. But, damn, it's a posh party for 125-ish guests. All the swells will be there.
Mia was against taking the gig, but her gung-ho brother talked her into it. Imagine her chagrin when Jake is on a ladder putting up Christmas lights and clumsy fool ends up breaking his leg? With the doctor telling him to lay off his feet for at least a week and with their parents on holiday in Palm Springs, it's up to Mia to pull off the party planning by her lonesome. Unless David, Jake's buddy staying over, can step in? Mia's skeptical, but she needs a body to help out, any dang body. I imagine she must've had second thoughts when David started voicing his opinions. See, he's adventurous. She sticks to what works. So, yeah, clash.
In the wake of Hallmark's sustained salvo of Christmas movies in 2018 came A MIDNIGHT KISS, an okay movie that first aired on December 29th. It rates a 3.5 out of 5 stars from me. My favorite bits have to do with Mia and David's preparations for the big party, watching them as they go about the minutiae of party planning. And I enjoyed the novelty of having Jessica Steen take on a role other than "Lisa" from HEARTLAND. She plays the mom, Barb, and wasn't in the movie near enough.
I wasn't sold on the romance. I don't think the writers were, either. Not when they contrive to have Jake's wife playfully tell Mia, "I think you have a crush on David," just, y'know, in case we the viewing audience missed it. I deplore when the plot tells rather than shows. It's like whenever a character mentions that the hero or heroine of the piece has "never looked happier." It's the story's way of nudging the viewer along just in case the two leads' chemistry sucks or is tepid. Me, I saw zero chemistry between the two leads. Adelaide Kane's resting face is this neutral expression that makes it hard to figure out what she's feeling. And while I'd softened my stance on Carlos PenaVega as a viable lead - because he's pretty decent in the Picture Perfect Mysteries - I didn't think he was credible as a romantic lead in this one. He projected this annoying bouncing-off-the-wall vibe. He was like that bubbly self-help guru or super-enthusiastic work-out trainer that you just want to stiff-finger in the throat. So, yeah, A MIDNIGHT KISS was circa when I didn't think he could act, and then, he progressed enough to become an average actor that should probably only play sidekicks. But, as mentioned, I warmed up to him in the Picture Perfect Mysteries. Here, though, I kept alternating between wanting to strangle him and wanting to pat him on the head for being a good boy, like he's this eager puppy. Maybe with another male lead, I bump this up to 4 out of 5 stars.

Update: So I wrote that above a few days after the movie premiered back in 2018. I've since come around some on Carlos. He's starred in three Picture Perfect Mysteries on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries now, and I feel like he's finally found his solid footing and is a more credible actor now. But he still sucks in A MIDNIGHT KISS.
