Nov 17, 2023We didn't think Hallmark could get lower than "Mystic Christmas" this season, but this one does it - way lower. The three lead actors (Parrish, Hynes, and Lamonthe-Kipnes) are wasted in this story that you could say has a juvenile plot - but childish might describe it better. Parrish and Lamonthe are embarrassingly bad as they cavort around like two immature teenagers. And sometimes the very talented Hynes looks like he is shell-shocked and off somewhere mentally thinking "why am in this ? What am I doing here ?". We don't even think a 13 year-old would sit through this. It's a shame, really, because Parrish and Hynes have a proven track record at Hallmark, giving some really good performances is fine productions. Particularly Hynes who was excellent in last year's outstanding "Three Wise Men and a Baby," the most watched made-for-cable movie of 2022. But, this totally misses the mark. Add to it, Linda Ko and Henriette Juanas playing the two leading ladies' mothers in what has to be some of the worst and annoying acting in a Hallmark Christmas movie and this movie simply adds insult to injury. Skip it, Lil, especially if you are a fan of Hynes or Parrish.

Nov 12, 2023Do I love all things Tyler Hynes? Yes. Never Been Chris'd did not disappoint. The whole cast did a phenomenal job. I loved the storyline of the high school reunion among the holiday celebrations. The movie was full of Christmas fun and I loved how they incorporated Hanukah as well. The movie reminded me of when I go home for the holidays and I wonder if I will run into my high school classmates. I like how Hallmark has been approaching their movies lately. We don't just have a story about someone falling in love, we have a spotlight on friendships being tested and strengthened, as well. I will definitely be rewatching this one over and over.

Nov 11, 2023I thought "Chris'd" would also be some sort of pun on "Chris"tmas or "Chris" Kringle in addition to Tyler's character. I already read all of the bad reviews so i'll keep this brief. I went out of my way to log into this account to give this a review because it was so bad and a total waste of my Sunday Hallmark movie nights. First, getting tired of Tyler's exact same character every movie, sort of done with him in the exact same role. 2nd: Movie has NOTHING to do with Christmas other than the mother of the brunette has Christmas decor in her home. That's IT!!! These girls hate their mothers, bad relationships never explained. Chris is a loser who lies for some reason about being vegan and steals bites of fish from various places. (HUH??) "Popular kids" in high school who are now adults and trying to re-live their high school glory days are all horrible and the 2 girlfriends who have moved on from H. S. are so excited to be hanging out with them now, also puzzling. Chris is making moves on both girls, so you are confused who he is EVENTUALLY going to have sparks with, never has sparks with either of them, even the girl who is eventually the love interest. She and best friend ruin their relationship over this guy, really? I thought they would out him for the liar he is then re-strengthen their BFF bonds, that might've been an okay ending. Instead, ends with Chris getting the girl, stupid high school reunion party (that isn't even Christmas themed). I thought at least the blond would meet some charming guy at the VERY end but no. This is why I now tune in to GAC movies!! I'm done with Hallmark and the horrible movies they keep airing with no charm and sweetness that we originally loved Hallmark for. Such a bummer. Tyler - be a little picky about the roles you take, please!!!
