Jessica C @Jnnnn Dec 22 I thought is was going to be sappy and sweet. It wasn't. The daughter although grieving was kind of a jerk, it was hard to sympathize and her motives for setting her Dad up weren't well intentioned. Not worth the watch beyond background noise. See more Michelle T @Shellyshakeup Dec 12 This movie is a touching and sweet look at a father and daughter dealing with grief together. This is not your standard hallmark Christmas movie - these characters are flawed but I still find them believable and worth rooting for. See more Alexanna H @RT78892087 01/08/2025 Daughter sets grieving widowed father up with women on dating apps and has them encounter each other in public, where the woman thinks they are meeting up for a date, and the dad thinks these are weird random women approaching him. This would be fine enough, but then a sobbing woman approaches him calling out his name and seeking his solace, turns out a pitpull had just ripped her chihuahuas throat out in front of her and he bled out in her arms. Dad has no idea who she is, and daughter and friend witness this with what seemed like shocked amusement, and the whole scene seemed to be played off for a laugh. No empathy for this woman who has just been deeply traumatized and now is also being treated like a crazy random woman by the man she thinks she's been communicating with online and is supposed to be meeting for a date. This was so disturbing and unfunny that it ruined the movie See more John W @RT24475330 12/26/2024 While there is a good storyline about dealing with grief and moving on, it is eclipsed by the emotionally unstable father who is clearly an alcoholic without any resolution to his drinking issues. We are also left with the distinct possibility the mother was an alcoholic as well and that may have led to the car crash which killed her. The movie was not the feel-good movie about a single dad raising his daughter that I was hoping for. See more Sally R @RT69883762 12/21/2024 Not worth it. It was described as lighthearted and is the exact opposite. The main theme is grief and loss. The characters are miserable and down. The dad is angry. There is no humor to offset the depressing mood. I didn't laugh once. Skip it. See more Guiselle C @RT22465890 12/13/2024 Not funny at all. Dad is a disgusting jerk and nothing about him makes the viewer want to root for a happy ending. He doesn't seem to like his daughter and berates her throughout the movie. See more Read all reviews
