This post is a retraction to The Christmas Card, which I recently posted on.
I just watched this movie, The Christmas Card, I hadn't seen it in quite awhile and since it is Christmas time I thought it would be fun to see again. Well it was not as good as a I remember it to be. The acting was just awful and actually my mom and I had more fun laughing at the actors and the script than having fun watching a good movie.
It was a good idea for a movie and entertaining, but it was corny and silly and funny when it shouldn't have been.
Keep in mind that this movie is well-loved and gets high marks from online reviewers and movie watchers. But. . .we have realized it is the story-line involving the war, and finding true love through a Christmas card that is what everyone loves. If you can get past the acting and bad script, you may love it too! 
This movie will always be special to me though, it was the last movie I watched with my grandpa. He loved watching movies and he did enjoy this one.

Do you remember the original How the Grinch Stole Christmas? If you have only seen the Jim Carey movie version do yourself a favor and get a hold of the the original Grinch that is actually based on the Dr. Seuss classic book, "How the Grinch Stole Christmas."
This remake of the heartwarming Christmas classic captures all the joy and wonder of the original version. A young girl, who has been raised not to believe in fairy tales and Santa Claus, meets a department store Santa Claus who claims that he is the real Kris Kringle. Her mother of course, insists that it can't be true, that Kris is just a nice old man. But soon things start happening that may make them both change their minds and make them believe in the magic of Christmas once again.
The Christmas Blessing by Donna Van Liere, inspired this movie that is the sequel to The Christmas Shoes.
The Polar Express revolves around a young boy who wants to believe in Santa Clause but finds it quite difficult, what with his family's dogged insistence of it all. This all changes when on Christmas Eve a mysterious train visits "Billy" in the middle of the night, promising to take him and other lucky children to the North Pole to visit Santa! The train's conductor along with the other children help turn Billy's crisis of faith(in santa) into a journey of self-discovery.
Tom Hanks plays multiple characters, (six to be exact) in this so you will find many of the men in this movie have an uncanny similarity to him.(see links below) It wasn't annoying as I can imagine a different actor portraying six characters could be.
In the midst of war in Afghanistan a young man, Cody Cullen (JOHN NEWTON) is touched by a lovely card sent by Faith Spelman (ALICE EVANS) from a small town of Nevada City, California. A town where everyone knows everyone and no one has any secrets. As months pass by in Afghanistan, the card never leaves Cody's side. It gave him strength to survive and press on another day and setting him on a mission to go find her.
When Luther and Nora Krank's (TIM ALLEN & JAMIE LEE CURTIS) only daughter Blair leaves the family nest, they decide to skip Christmas and go on an island cruise. But their decision to boycott tradition has their whole neighborhood in a uproar.

Transformers Revenge of the Fallen has all the action of Transformers, and in fact is very similar. The battle scene of Transformers 2 was about an hour too long in my opinion, but if that is what you are looking for in a movie, you will absolutely love Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
