For those of us who watch a lot of Hallmark (and similar) Christmas movies, it's rare to find one with a fresh concept. 'Twas The Night Before Christmas delivers just that. A local town play centered around a courtroom debate on who actually wrote the famous poem for which the movie is named.
The acting is as good as you'll find in the genre, with both leads playing their roles well. The romantic chemistry between the leads is believable and not over played. The writing and direction are excellent. The set design and musical score are top notch. Even the fake snow (which can be laughably bad in made for TV Christmas movies) looks good.
If you enjoy Hallmark movies or festive light hearted Christmas movies, give this one a chance. It's definitely one of the strongest ones Hallmark has put out recently.
