Actually I must admit that when I sat down to watch the 2020 Christmas movie "Christmas on Ice" from writer and director John Stimpson, I believed it to be yet another archetypical sappy Christmas movie that comes a dime a dozen.
But still, as it was a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give the movie a chance.
And now having seen it, I have to say that "Christmas on Ice" was actually a little bit more than just your typical sappy romantic Christmas cheese. Sure, the movie had that aspect to it as well, but the whole aspect of the daughter and making it her best Christmas was actually quite nice.
The acting performances in "Christmas on Ice" were good. I can't claim to be familiar with the people on the cast list, but lead actress Abigail Klein and lead actor Ryan Cooper actually carried the movie quite well with their performances, and definitely had a great on-screen chemistry.
"Christmas on Ice" gives the audience a bit more than your archetypical Christmas cheese that you are served in an abundance by the Christmas movies. So it is actually well-worth taking the time to sit down and watch this 2020 Christmas movie.
My rating of "Christmas on Ice" lands on a six out of ten stars.
