This was anything but a feel-good Christmas movie as the producers would have you believe. The characters are mostly unlikable jerks who go out of their way to cause trouble for the new outsider in town. Also, you can see the "twist" coming a mile away. A forced romantic relationship is very obvious from the beginning as well. Be prepared to be inundated with shameless product placement throughout most of the movie especially for alcoholic beverages. I wanted to see this film because of Kurtwood Smith (Red in That 70s Show) and Tim Allen but both actors had little to do or say. Disappointing movie in almost every regard.
