An odd little Christmas movie. From the outside it looked like a simple Christmas comedy, but there's a lot more going on under the hood. I hadn't expected a nifty time travel mechanic, nor did I expect a more dramatic plot. I'm not saying this will grow out to become a future Christmas classic, but it's a worthy gamble for people who want a slightly different Christmas flick. Michael Sheen's performance is rather overstated, but he pulls it off just fine. The direction is a little basic (not too surprising, since this is a TV project), but the writing is pretty nifty and the plot is surprisingly intricate, though still easy enough to keep track of. A pleasant surprise and a memorable film. Read all
