7/10

A cozy, fun, and slightly absurd holiday movie.

Lacey Chabert has become the queen of Rom Coms and Hot Frosty is another jewel in her crown. This movie is a fun and light Christmas treat - like a nice glass of eggnog and a gingerbread cookie with a side order of six-pack abs - and Dustin Milligan does an excellent job as a snowman who comes to life, full of innocence and wonder.

The premise is a bit fantastical but what makes it all work is how the film treats this miracle, with pretty much the whole town easily accepting that a snowman could come to life. It's quite sweet. The script is also light on holiday tropes - unlike some Christmas movies that treat them like check lists - and this outing has more heart than expected, of course, the most believable aspect of this movie is how fast someone could fall in love with Lacey Chabert.

In conclusion, Hot Frosty has a cozy, fun, and slightly absurd holiday magic. It's a warm-hearted, snowy romance for those willing to leave a bit of logic behind and embrace the season's cheer with open arms.
