Movie Reviews of A Mom for Christmas
Movie Review: Ponder on This!
Summary: 5 Stars
When i first saw this movie, back when it was on tv on the disney channel, i then became obsessed with finding this brilliant film on VHS or DVD again.
my thoughts of this film is this.
Even in the midths of economic hardship that most americans see in their lives, it just goes to show you that this movie was (in it's time) and still is the best of movie making out there. it shows that with love, understanding and hope, one can have anything happen. even within the smile of stranger (a mall-doll or not). this movie gives its viewers reasons to reflect upon their own lives, i know i did. to find the best in it, despite the darkened policies and decisions that our government hands us. this film is about hope, in the finding of that innocence within a child, renewed faith, in the belief that if one wants it bad enough, it comes to pass, and in the belief, that within hard work, love, believing in ones self, nearly anything is possible.
these days we as a world, lack that. we spend our lives with the scurry and worry of everyday life. when see the ones on street corners holding up those signs (and you ALL know what im talking about.. ya'll seen them too) we pay them no mind, we brush them off as if they were as common as the trash that lays along the curb in the street. we close our minds and hearts to each other. we have become complacient and self centered and yes, even the holy rollers are this way, sometimes even more so. but if you see this film, look at the message, look at the presence and look at the love that is so deseperately apparent in this movie.
every child without a mother, longs for such a fairytale such as this to come true for themselves. they too, as did jessica, wish with their heart, wish with their love and wished with the innocence of childhood for the mother they so long for in life. its rings true as does the poem from the NYC Post "Yes, Virginia, There Is A Santa Claus". however, now a days, that kind of magic, that kind of miracle, that kind of fairytale, is mere hollywood magic.
i think this film SHOULD BE A MUST for any family, struggling internally or not, a must for teaching their children about life, about love and especially about hope.
