      SPOILER:. When the golden retriever picks up the "time capsule" lunch box it has a fixed handle that appears to be designed for a dog to pick up. The next cut Michael moves the box to a table it has a traditional lunch box handle.

    Nice Holiday film! Not about golden retriever puppies, though!
    This is a very nice, entertaining holiday film from beginning to end. The acting is good, the plot is engaging. I highly recommend it for adults and children 12+. The only downer is that the cover is very misleading. This is not a children's movie about puppies, it's a romantic holiday drama. I think it was disingenuous of the distributors of this film to package it as a puppy movie for little kids. Cutthroat marketing knows no shame, so be warned! If you want to see a heartwarming romantic drama about the holiday season, this is a great film! But it's not a puppy movie that the toddlers will squeal and giggle at for an hour+. Small kids will be bored to distraction, and there may be a rebellion of suppressed energy during such a film.
