I finally watched 2nd Chance For Christmas all the way through and I enjoyed it. It wasn't a heavy-hitter type of movie meaning it wasn't real deep and neither was there a lot of intense acting/directing, yet it kept my interest. Chance was a diva-type singer that had no regard for the people who worked for her or her family. She hates Christmas (it is never revealed why). She was mean and indifferent even to her fans, which is a major no-no! A mother brings her sick daughter to see Chance and possibly get an autograph, but Chance treats her fans like dirt and the mother and her daughter walk away heart-broken. As in the Dickens classic, Chance is visited by 3 ghosts who take her on a trip to her past, present and future. The way the ghosts presented themselves was very interesting and I looked forward to see what would happen next. There was a scene with the ghost of Christmas future that was scary because she changed from a beautiful woman to an angel of death or something. It certainly got Chance's attention! Its really a modern take on the old story that's been retold over and over, but I liked the changes. As always the message is clear: Be helpful and respectful to others while living your life to the fullest!
