The Holiday Calendar is another Netflix Holiday Universe (NHU) romantic comedy starring Kat Graham, Quincy Brown, Ethan Peck and Ron Cephas Jones. Abby Sutton, a talented photographer unhappy in a dead end job, is gifted an antique holiday advent calendar whose contents may be predicting the future and if she takes the direction, might also get her to a love and happiness she never saw coming.
This was yet another very predictable plot but because the script and acting were good I was down for the ride.I liked the diversity of the cast along with the character development and evolution of Graham’s Abby. I liked the dynamic between her character and Ron Cephas Jones’ Gramps. I also thought that she had pretty good chemistry with Quincy Brown’s Josh Barton. Kat had an odd accent at times, like she was trying to put on a harder New York style accent that didn’t naturally fit her character from Chicago. Other than that, I thought she did well carrying this movie and really feel like she may be in the running to steal Vanessa Hudgen’s queen of the Netflix Christmas Movies title.
If you are looking for a cute, feel-good Christmas movie, this might be right up your alley.
