5 out of 5 stars This is not just a "chick-flick"   December 27, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I don't think of this movie as just a chick-flick but instead it enables the viewer (whether male or female) to think about the simplicity of what life should be; to follow your heart in both romance and what you really want out of life. Although the movie is portrayed as Christmas time, perhaps it's the season to reflect on one's life and let "magic" happen.


4 out of 5 stars Fairly good   December 22, 2008

This movie overall was good, but there were awkward moments in the plot. At times it didn't seem really flow, but overall it was a really nice movie. The starting scenes in Afghanistan didn't seem very believeable, but that was the biggest problem.


4 out of 5 stars Nice family movie   December 22, 2008
  0 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is a very nice, touching Christmas movie. The story is moving and gives you a good feeling. It is good for the whole family because it is a very clean movie with no sex or language. The acting was just ok for me. I felt that Cody could have shown more emotion. I know he was military so that made him more on the reserved side, but it was a love story! I wanted him to show a little more passion in his emotions. But overall we really enjoyed the story and the scenery! A nice movie to watch at Christmas time to get you in the spirit!

5 out of 5 stars A Great Christmas Movie   December 13, 2008

The Christmas Card
This is one of the best Christmas movies I have seen in Years. Ed Asner plays the father and is a very understanding father.
It is so believable. It begins with this daughter sending a Christmas card to a soldier in the war zone.
He goes on leave and takes the card with him and finds the church in the picture. He is made welcome and the family invites him to their home for the Christmas holiday as he has no family of his own.
He fits into the family's way of life and of course falls for the daughter.
