It's never too late... or is it?
The Story:
Sloane (Christina Milian) is a go-getter at a PR firm, but her golden goose is cooked when her star client, Caitlin (Ashley Benson) dies. However, in true A Christmas Carol fashion, Caitlan comes back to haunt Sloane, and take her on a trip through Christmases past, present and future where she shows Sloane what is truly important in her life.
Can Sloane change her ways in time to win back her true love, Patrick (Chad Michel Murray) ?
Yes, another version of A Christmas Carol.
However, this time it switches to a romantic comedy idea courtesy of ABC Family back in 2010.
I don't think we saw this one until 2011, or maybe last year, but it became a hit in the household, and has been watched many, many times since, especially by a few of the kids who absolutely adore this movie.
Thankfully, I liked the version too, so I'm always happy to have a Holiday movie playing as long as it is one that I enjoy.
This one easily fits the bill, taking the standard Dickens tale and focusing on Sloane's love life versus Scrooge's miserly ways to show how Sloane crushed guy after guy by putting her job before her heart.
Blasphemy, I know.
:)
Anyway, it's a cute little movie and it is streamable on Netflix as of this writing, and probably playing on ABC Family sometime this month as well, and also available on the ABC Family website as well.
Final Grade: B+
Rewatchability/Purchase Factor: Watched it probably half a dozen times, maybe more. Finally bought it this season, packaged with three other ABC Family Holiday hits! :)
