'Tis the Season to Be Irish

 

Why?

It's that time of the year. Hallmark's annual (way too early) Christmas Countdown. That means we get a whole new arsenal of Christmas movies to do bingo with. This is one of the newer ones that premiered this time. 

What in the world?

A house flipper really wants to flip a house in Ireland because of her dead mom. She then starts to fall for the guy who is putting a bunch of restrictions on her house flipping. So nothing super interesting in this one. 

Personal thoughts

THIS MOVIE WAS ONE OF THE DULLEST I HAVE EVER SEEN! It had maybe one redeeming quality about the whole thing and that was the lamb that was the whole saving point of the relationship. There was a weird lady who was all over the place and she was trying to spread her husband's ashes WITHOUT HER KIDS!! If I was related to her, I would never forgive her if she actually got around to doing it. There was also this pop star in disguise who sang Danny Boy at the supposed spreading of the ashes. Super insensitive if you ask me. The main guy was horrid at having an Irish accent and if he did have one, you couldn't understand him half the time anyway. The main lady was just boring and didn't really do much. 

Score

I have to give this movie a 1 out of 10. The lamb named Lambchop was really the only good thing about this movie. I can't think of anything else to say to describe how boring and pointless this movie was. Not a very strong start to the new year of Christmas movies.

Side Note: The main guy character is actually Irish. This was not immediately evident and that is my fault for not doing a little bit of research.

Watch what you love,
