Christmas in the Heartland

Christmas in the Heartland (2017)

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Somewhat reminiscent of The Parent Trap, where two characters swap lives for a period of time. In this case, there is no ulterior motive to get their families back together, though it seems they may just have that same effect by the end of the story. Neither is particularly thrilled about being sent "home" to relatives they don't really know for the holidays when they meet on a plane and realize they're heading to the same place for the same reason.... only they like the sound of the other person's holiday much better than their own. Some chaos always joins the mix with a switch up like this, and while the resolution may not be perfect, it seems the majority end up with more than they could ever have hoped for.
