Unforgettable
Saw this movie a few years ago and never forgot it. Beautiful xmas/ romance movie.

Some fresh ideas
Stop-the-wedding has been done in a couple different ways, but it is not as overused as some tropes. This take on it also has at least a couple major differences from the others I've seen, but talking about them would be spoilers. Also this isn't the usual romance story nor it is heavily into the usual Christmas tropes.
JoAnna Garcia (Swisher) as Roxanne does a good job with her role. Unfortunately I didn't like either Dylan or Charlie from the beginning. Dylan needs to learn boundaries - he was a little too stalkerish and insensitive. But Rose, the mom, wasn't too sensitive either when she came home from Paris either. Charlie was creepy and secretive.
There were some funny moments, but there were a lot of depressing moments especially for Roxanne.
Overall, the story didn't get bogged down in any one direction and I'd lean towards a thumbs up.
