This is a double movie review.
For the next ten weeks, I am joined by my friend and The Resident Rulebreakers podcaster Kayla Blackwell as we review all 41 newest Hallmark Christmas movies.
This week we review two of the first four movies Hallmark has released:
You, Me and Christmas Trees starring Danica McKellar and Benjamin Ayres as well as Boyfriends of Christmas Past starring Catherine Haena Kim, Raymond Ablack and Paul Sun-Hyung Lee.
You, Me and Christmas Trees:
We talk about the mystery illness that fell upon the christmas tree farm, how it was never solved. Our frustrations with the slowness of the movie, and possible missed opportunity of what could have been, how it would have been better served (in our opinion) for Dwayne to have been the cause of the illness of all the trees than some mysterious DNA test virus that we never really found out, or understood lol.
Boyfriends of Christmas Past:
We talk about the diversity of the cast, how the movie storyline follows a very classic Christmas movie "Christmas Carol" and Lauren's issue with Christmas and relationships. We also call out the racism this movie brought about in the fandom, expressing our shock (Or lack thereof) with response from some of the fandom. We also talk about our hopes for a sequel, maybe seeing Lauren reconcile with her biological mom before a wedding and hope she sought therapy to deal with her abandonment issues.
