Get your fill of happily-ever -afters with this year’s lineup of holiday-themed romantic movies to watch from the comfort of home
Scenario
Alana Higman, a die-hard Kansas City Chiefs fan and her family are competing to win the team's Fan of the Year contest, in a process judged by the director of fan engagement Derrick.. The film was shot on location on the historic Independence Square in Independence, Missouri, which actually looks like that year round. The locations that served as the Higman family’s store and Norma and Nick’s BBQ restaurant are family owned shops in real life too.
But sorry, this was a dud
The Square also does a Christmas lighting like the one in the film.. Well…I am a Chiefs fan; I am a Hunter King fan, and I am a Tyler Hines fan. I wish I could just stop there, but alas, I must elaborate.
They really laid it on thick
If you’re not a Chiefs fan, I don’t know how you make it to the end of such a movie. I didn’t find the chemistry between Hines and King very strong at all. The writing was so-so, and the general plot was a little strange.
Was pretty good as the crotchety old guy
I did like the supporting cast, and Ed Begley, Jr. I thought it was interesting that there was a scene in which the entire family was all getting hammered on eggnog in a Hallmark movie. I wish I had better things to say.
