In its unapologetic leaning into tropes, stellar casting, idyllic locations and occasional venturing off of the beaten path, A Castle for Christmas does something totally underrated: It gives us exactly what we want this holiday season.

Despite its smattering of shortcomings, A Castle For Christmas is gently disarming, heartening, holiday-themed escapism that’s as satisfying as a cup of hot chocolate on a cold winter’s night.

A Castle for Christmas delights in a stuffed-stocking of tropes and still offers a few surprises.

Likeable stars with little frisson, Elwes and Shields are also saddled with a formulaic script.

It’s not great, but it’s got a certain charm. Cary Elwes is wonderful, even if his character is a bit too thick headed at times. The side-characters are pretty likeable and I wish they’d been fleshed out a little more.
