#Let it snow book review movie#
Molly Freeman is the lead news editor of Screen Rant and one of Screen Rant’s Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer-approved movie critics. The rest of the cast is similarly underserved, though there is a nice camaraderie between Cusack's Tin Foil Woman and Rush's Addie that provides some needed counterbalance to the romance storylines - even if it's still underdeveloped. Hope and Shipka are fine enough as Tobin and The Duke, but they never manage to capture the kind of easy chemistry the storyline requires, so their arc comes off more awkward than romantic.
Hewson, too, is charmingly awkward as Dorrie, making her storyline all the more compelling - even as Akana isn't given much to work with as the hot-and-cold Kerry. Together, Moore and Merced showcase their chops as rom-com leads, and the two have chemistry to spare as Stuart and Julie, infusing their particular storyline with plenty of heart and romance. Thankfully, Merced and Moore do much of the heavy lifting with grace, both being leads in their own right, with the former starring in Dora and the Lost City of Gold and the latter voicing Miles Morales in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse.
Further, though Solon, Strouse and Cannon's script makes a valiant effort to interweave all the stories of Let It Snow, the film still ends up feeling a bit disjointed. So when all the characters do come together at the Waffle Town party, it's not as climactic as the movie clearly meant for the scene to be.īecause the script of Let It Snow isn't very strong, much of the film's success comes down to the actors. However, Let It Snow never manages to develop these storylines beyond their cliches, largely because the movie has so much going on, it doesn't have time to offer much depth to any of the characters or their arcs. There's the girl running into a celebrity and being unaffected by his charm - until she's not - as well as the boy in love with his best friend and the queer girl falling for a girl who giving mixed signals. The movie's many storylines offer a chance for fans of romance to see multiple tropes of the genre play out on screen. They still keep a video blog, now called "The Vlog Brothers," which can be found on the Nerdfighters website, or a direct link here.Directed by Luke Snellin ( Wanderlust, My Mad Fat Diary) from a script by Laura Solon ( Office Christmas Party), Victoria Strouse ( Finding Dory) and Kay Cannon ( Pitch Perfect), Let It Snow is a perfectly sweet, if by the numbers holiday rom-com. In 2007, John and his brother Hank were the hosts of a popular internet blog, " Brotherhood 2.0," where they discussed their lives, books and current events every day for a year except for weekends and holidays.
