Do not watch this horrible movie. A holiday romance requires the characters to have some redeeming qualities. Mike is drunk when his friend Joe steals Holly's car. The next morning they learn that the stolen car contains Holly's winning lottery ticket. From then on, Mike makes bad-natured, self-serving decisions and we get dragged through a plot with more holes than -- I mean the scouts have a Father-Son Pinewood Derby on Christmas Eve?? Would you schedule that? And the ticket is due by midnight on Christmas Eve. Would you staff a lottery office at midnight on Christmas Eve? Mike is unlikeable and his defense of his evil-doing friend, Joe, throughout the entire movie is indefensible. Holly just made another big mistake with her love life.
Blech. It was awful.
