Constance Grady

Vox

It's a more restrained, grounded movie than its predecessor - which, ultimately, means it loses some of the candy-coated glee that made A Christmas Prince such a buzzed-about so-bad-it's-good hit.

Rated: 2/5

This movie is like a sugar cookie: you know exactly what you're getting, and it has all the right ingredients (love, magic, presents), but it would've been even better with a little frosting on top, is all.

As a woman of color who never felt included in the Christmas movies I'd seen growing up, The Holiday Calendar clicked for me.

Kat Graham (of The Vampire Diaries) brings almost too many acting chops for a good holiday rom-com, but the film is still cheerily nonsensical.

Lyles' Movie Files

Manages to snatch all the fun out of calling every big moment by being so by the book it ignores important elements...like chemistry and a sensible plot.

Rated: 4/10

Michael C Kat Graham is amazing in everything she plays in great movie!!! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/15/24 Full Review Emma C Love this and watch it every Christmas now. Whoever thought of the calendar coming to life. Clever.Again, nice little love story as there always is in these films, but heartwarming non the less. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/11/23 Full Review Raquel L Perfeito para estar na listinha de filmes para se ver na semana do natal.Romântico, engraçado, com leve fantasia (mágica de natal). Fala de relacionamento familiar e entre amigos.História bem bonita e que dá para se assistir com a família. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/02/23 Full Review Angela K Very cute, funny, predictable, Christmas movie🤗 Nothing was unexpected or even a slight surprise. However, to my astonishment, it's one of the cutest holiday movies with an all-star cast that we're not only people of color but the ranges of talent was Oscar-worthy in my opinion🤗Loved it! Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/24/22 Full Review Ethan D The writing is horrifying at best and traumatizingly horrific at worst. It's not even funny bad, it's just bad. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/21/21 Full Review Audience Member SO good! Perfect cast, great pacing, very sweet story. Must see for the holiday Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
