Christmas in the Air (2017) Reviews

• What's important

  Jackbv1232017-11-10

  Most of my favorite Christmas movies have a leading lady who is energetic and quirky. This time, it is Eric Close, as Robert, that has that spirit. He and Catherine Bell, as Lydia, are a great compliment to each other. The movie is enjoyable as we watch their relationship grow. Robert needs to learn to organize and Lydia could use some spontaneity. Many Christmas movies are appealing because of one or more kids. Trinity Rose Likins, as Amelia does a great job as a beautiful little girl. Her memories of her mom are special. Jesse Filkow is her brother, Thomas, and he rounds out the family. This story doesn't surprise us much, but neither does it stretch our credibility. It manages to provide heartwarming moments without doing so.

• nice

  It has all the pieces of a Hallmark Christmas film.challenges, romance, kids, the him and her, humor and ... Eric Close. so, ideal choice for winter holiday period. but, few problebs are enough for be obstacles to the complete joy. the chemistry between Catherine Bell and Eric Close is missing. the children are great but the script is thin. the predactibility is not surprising but it seems be only link for entire script. and the love story is too...cold. but, after the final credits, it could be defined as nice movie. and this is the only significant thing, in fact.

• Worth Seeing

  Christmas-Reviewer2018-11-19

  I Have Reviewed OVER 500 "Christmas Films and Specials". Please BEWARE Of films and specials with just one review! For instance When "It's a POSITIVE" chances are that the reviewer was involved with the production. "If its Negative" then they may have a grudge against the film for whatever reason. I am fare about these films. In this film Lydia, a successful professional organizer, is constantly trying to grow her business, but even her ambition takes a back seat to love when she meets Robert, a frazzled widower with two young children who happens to be a toy inventor, who must come up in 12 days a new toy that will save his company. However both Lydia & Robert bring out the best in each other. You know how this film will end but the films charming leads make you forget.

• Don't Mess Up- Get Organized for Christmas and Watch this Movie

  gehewe2018-02-03

  Eric Close is the fun dynamic toy inventor who is a bit of a mess and Catherine Bell is the calm personal organizer who helps him. It is a fun movie. Listed as a Romance but it has a lot of humor and drama. Love the scenes where Catherine Bell is opening and asking what these two drawers are for. He replies as she opens these messy drawers "This is the drawer that we put the stuff that won't fit in the other drawers and that is the drawer we never open". He has 2 kids and this makes everything work in the movie. The little girl is in her first role (she seems familiar though) and her part really adds to the drama of missing her mother who passed away and the disorganized life of her father. Catherine Bell is very good with her. We have some great toy shop scenes, especially when he is testing out the Santa Sleigh flyer. The ballerina toy and the last toy at the end are so well done. The title I guess was originally 12 days but then became "Christmas in the air" because of the Santa Sleigh toy that flies. Title is still not quite right. Maybe needs something about the 3 C's of organization Consolidate, Concentrate, ?. I am a great Catherine Bell fan and loved the other Christmas movie she was in this year "Home for Christmas Day". This one is better due to Eric Close who is just great. The organization theme has my wife cleaning out drawers in our home so the movie effected us in a positive way. We will watch it again.

• No Chemistry

  poohpooh-342412017-12-12

  I watch almost all of the Hallmark Christmas movies but this couple really have no chemistry on screen at all. The kids are super cute in the movie, plus love that they are toy-makers.
