Take Me Home (2011)
Good movie that stays true to the characters
The chemistry between the two main characters is what really makes this movie work but, also, their story arc. The movie goes for - and we get - a deeper sense of the "real" characters and doesn't go for some easy, cheap laughs that you might find in a similar plot. There is an especially wonderful scene (no spoiler here) where Tom so wants to change and he makes a promise to Claire and she says the most simple, perfect, and heart-felt line of the movie. Simply; "I know." Also, it's really easy in these kind of movies to have stereotypes; yet, and every single character - even the ones with very limited screen time - have the sense of a deepness about them. It really is a wonderfully realized movie. Scott F. - Pacifica, CA

The Road to Christmas (2006)
A familiar theme with a good cast
The story was subtle and that's what I actually enjoyed. It didn't go for over-the-top or cliché' but instead was just a really enjoyable and nice movie. I liked it. There's something to be said for focusing more on the simple locations and finding the magic in everyday things. Cooking at the holiday's. A small town diner. Those places you find yourself when you didn't expect to be there at all. At one point the main characters find themselves looking for a lost dog in the middle of a field in December. It just so happens this sort of thing exactly happened to me and my wife before we fell for each other. SImple and solid movie. Enjoy.
