Movie Reviews of Christmas In The Clouds
Movie Review: All Sun Dance Awards Deserved!
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally, a movie that isn't too much of anything--except for just completely enjoyable! What this movie isn't:
Not too serious
Not too funny
Not too sexual
Not too hard to follow
Not too many special effects
Not too long
No hidden messages
No politcal agenda
...you get the idea. If you want to sit back and watch a harmless holiday movie (not really what I would call a Christmas Classic, the holiday was more of a back drop and wasn't leaned on in any way for the story), and just be entertained without all the hub-bub then this is your movie! The charaters are so easy to understand and follow and care about and the story moves along at a perfectly steady pace. I never broke my spleen laughing but was happily amused throught the picture, which to me is a much greater feat for a movie!!! Not sure what to compare this too, it really has an original feel to it and is definitely what I would call a hidden gem as far as movies go...it was SOOOOO nice to have watched a movie and been given that warm fuzzy afterwards. Thank you to the everyone that had anything to do with the production of this movie.
Movie Review: Not just for Christmas, will leave you smiling........
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is a bit different, giving laughs where you don't expect in a way you weren't looking for. Quality acting, beautiful location. A warm fuzzy movie with a gentle chuckle. I had seen it twice in the theater, and waited for it to come out on DVD. When it did, I purchased several for gifts, and have seen it three times now. I am already looking forward to seeing it again. The characters seem like real people and the story is certainly believable. The events in the movie could happen to anyone, but not in such an entertaining manner. I highly recommend this movie. Good for "chicks" or guys as well as a great family story. It presents a normal way of life for a group of present day Native Americans rather than some silly unrealistic representation. Not just for Christmas time, good year round. Excellent movie!Movie Review: Finally...a movie made with Indian humor!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this movie and everyone I've shared it with were surprised to find themselves laughting at the humor in it. A silly film with a surprisingly wonderful plot.
It is especially good to see Graham Greene playing a fun part. I won't go into the plot because the whole movie comes together so well in the end, I don't want to spoil it. I just want to mention how refreshing it was to hear no bad language, see no violence and scenes left to your imagination like well written movies do.
I'm buying it again to have a backup - incase they run out like most movies do in this country that are written, directed and staring American Indians.
(use to be I'd find them on EBay from the U.K. but lately I've noticed more showing up on Amazon now - thank you Amazon)
Movie Review: A Really Great Little Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
"Christmas in the Clouds" is a great movie on many levels. It is funny, romantic, a little suspenseful, and very easy on the eyes. The leading man and woman and the scenery rival each other in a contest to gain our focus. I'd call it a draw. I love all holiday movies but this one was just different enough to make me want to watch it again. There were no slow parts and no graphic/sexual scenes so no one will be embarrassed if Grandma sits down to watch it with you. Kids might not like it due to the relatively mature subject matter (when compared to "Rudolph..."), but there is nothing overtly objectionable within. I highly recommend this sleeper hit. I went into it expecting nothing and came out pleasantly surprised. Share it with friends over the holidays. You'll have fun.Movie Review: A Wonderful Film with Great Romance and Comedy
Summary: 5 Stars
A standing ovation at the Santa Fe Film Festival -- I've been waiting for years to see it available on DVD. It got only limited release, perhaps because its cast is mostly Native American and exhibitors expected it to have a small draw. But in fact the story is a universal one, full of terrific characters and charming substories - my favorite is the chef who tries to talk diners out of eating meat dishes. The story is about a Native American-owned ski lodge crew that is praying for snow and publicity to keep them in business. When an attractive young woman is mistaken for a reviewer whose approval is essential, and she falls for the hunky lodge manager (and vice versa), things get romantic and funny. Even the last line of the movie is funny.
