Movie Reviews of The Christmas Card
Movie Review: One of my Faves
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife thinks I'm crazy. I teach two university courses on film aesthetics, and yet I think I've watched this DVD more times than any of the great classics I show in my classes. What gives? Well, part of it is plain, ordinary prejudice. I love the town of Nevada City, have visited it many times, and this is the only movie in which NC, so to speak, portrays itself. But this also is a very well written, directed, and acted little movie. The only real flaw is in the casting of part of Paul. Ben Weber is a competent actor, but he is just the wrong type to convince us that Faith has loved and waited for him for years and years. Except for that, it's really quite wonderful.Movie Review: Another sweet movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Faith sends handmade Christmas cards through her church to servicemen in Afghanistan. Cody a Master Sergeant in the army receives one of the cards given to him by a member of Faiths church. Cody keeps the card and relies on it to keep him going. After a tragic bombing Cody is sent on leave and he goes to the town where Faith and her family live. An unusual situation happens and Cody is asked to stay with the Spellman family for the holidays. Luke Faiths father sets out with a plan to get Cody and faith together as a couple. There are several twist and turns that makes the movie worth watching. All the actors are wonderful and I dearly loved the movie.
Movie Review: A Great Christmas Movie

The Christmas Card
This is one of the best Christmas movies I have seen in Years. Ed Asner plays the father and is a very understanding father.
It is so believable. It begins with this daughter sending a Christmas card to a soldier in the war zone.
He goes on leave and takes the card with him and finds the church in the picture. He is made welcome and the family invites him to their home for the Christmas holiday as he has no family of his own.
He fits into the family's way of life and of course falls for the daughter.
Movie Review: Christmas Card is an excelent family movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought the Christmas Card to add to my holiday movie collection for my family. It is a heart warming story of a young Christian woman who reaches out to the soldiers in Afghanistan by sending them a Christmas card with a letter about her family and hometown. The soldier who received it visits her hometown when he is sent state side on military leave. He is emotionally and spiritually taken by the town, the woman's family and eventually falls in love with her. There are complications with a fiance in the picture but watch the movie for the great ending.
I highly recommend this movie for your Christmas collection.
Movie Review: Poor acting, great storyline.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderfully sentimental love story focusing on a family-less soldier who goes home on leave and finds the town where he received a Christmas card from while serving in Afghanistan. From the first moment all involved are rooting for Cullen to be the love-interest. Unfortunately, there is another fellow in the picture. But lest I spoil the ending, suffice it to say, the movie is enchanting. The acting is rather lackluster, pitiful to be exact. But the storyline carries the film beautifully. And there are two very handsome fellows in the movie that are a treat to female eyes. This would be a wonderful girls night out movie, or date movie.
