Brick Breeland’ in The CW series, “Hart of Dixie,” opposite Rachel Bilson. Having now entertained audiences over the last 50 years, Matheson is a luminary in the business as he also starred as ‘Dr. Next up, Matheson landed a role in the upcoming Dwayne Johnson starrer “ Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle” slated for Christmas 2017 and will appear in the Netflix drama feature “6 Balloons” with James Franco and Jane Kaczmarek.
CAST OF HALLMARK MAGICAL CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS MOVIE
Most recently, Matheson starred in the literary adaptation of “Killing Reagan” portraying Ronald Reagan based on the Bill O’Reilly best-selling book which premiered on the National Geographic Channel in October 2016 earning him a Critic’s Choice Award Nomination for Best Actor in a Movie Made for Television or Limited Series (Cynthia Nixon for Best Actress and the film for Best Movie Made for Television also nominated). Reviews mostly written at 2AM.Tim Matheson (born Timothy Lewis Matthieson December 31, 1947) is an American actor, director and producer perhaps best known for his portrayal of the smooth talking ‘Eric “Otter” Stratton’ in the 1978 comedy “Animal House,” but has had a variety of other well-known roles both before and since including critical accolades for his playing ‘Vice President John Hoynes’ on the television series, “The West Wing,” which garnered him two Primetime Emmy Award nominations for Best Guest Star in a Drama Series. Now I mostly write about Hallmark movies. I started this blog to vent about lousy, sexist Hong Kong movies. I almost want to leave the poor woman in peace so she can ride out the holidays however she wants, whether it’s with or without a Christmas tree.Ĭast: Jessica Lowndes, Brendan Penny, Farah Merani, Stephen Huszar, Judah Katz, Tim Matheson That’s understandable, but that also makes her a bit of a drag. Her boss has her on the cookbook beat when what she really wants and is good at is fiction. She’s aggressively pessimistic, not just about the season but about her career rut. The script has her playing skeptic, although it should find ways to make her a bit more sympathetic. Since I’m not really into magical anything to begin with, Marie’s already lost me with her theory. There is no magic, but you can’t call a movie Christmas Ornament Coincidences, so here we are. If you’re thinking, that’s not really magic, that’s just a coincidence, you are right. A tiny pair of felt skates, for example, leads to a skating date with Nate, and a shimmering treasure chest turns out to be the subject of a new children’s book she’s editing. Each one foretells something that happens later that day. She thinks her mom’s ornaments are sending her a message, and people make all sorts of dumb decisions when they think a Hallmark keepsake has special powers. Marie’s got her mind on other things though. What more could you ask for? If I were Marie, I’d start making plans to sublease my flat instead of fretting over how this nice guy’s going to ditch me. He’s also a cutie pediatric nurse, which is perfect because when he’s not helping Marie with her publishing company’s charity toy drive, he’s helping sick kiddos. She doesn’t even have a tree for the ornaments her mother sends every day.Įnter the neighbor, Nate (Brendan Penny), a Florida transplant who loves Christmas and won’t tolerate Marie’s treeless nonsense. That and the Frank Sinatra Christmas music her neighbor plays on blast.
Now, the most festive thing in her New York City flat is the ambient Christmas lighting that shines through her window. She hasn’t felt the Christmas spirit since breaking up with her ex over the holidays years ago. Marie (Jessica Lowndes) is the Scrooge of this story. No, Magical Christmas Ornaments is just another Hallmark movie about a “magical” that brings a couple together and shows at least one of them the true meaning of Christmas. In my sleep-deprived state, I was thinking this might be a movie about ornaments that come to life at night, à la Toy Story, which would be amazing because if my mismatched box of ornaments is anything to go by, there’d be some great commentary on culture, consumerism, and class.
