Joy for Christmas

 

Why?

Amazon recommended it and no it wasn't one of the free samples of the month.

What in the world?

A girl who recently quit her job has to get a baseball player to help her raise enough money to give kids toys for Christmas. 

Personal thoughts

Ok we're going to start this with a prompt. Think of one trait that defines you or maybe a motivation that drives you. That would be your personality in this movie. They are cookie cutter characters that probably only exist to make money. Baseball guy likes baseball and speaks in baseball terms half the time. Stepbrother is just trying to exist. It was very plain, but the soundtrack was super good. Only kidding but that's ok. 

Score

I have to give this movie a 3 out of 10. Believe me when I tell you that there is no conflict. Basically, everything good happens even if it seems that maybe something was going to drive a wedge between them. No no no that's not conflict they get over it in less than a minute at some points. The main reveal outfit (you know what I'm talking about if you frequently watch Hallmark) was trash. It looked like a shiny trash bag and people liked it. Says a lot about fashion am I right?
