I watched it on Amazon Prime on 18th Aug 2024. 

Kendrick and his daughter Leah go to a jewelry shop too but an engagement ring for Kendrick's girlfriend Shay. Ray also visits the same shop at the same time to by a pair of earrings for his girlfriend Zoey. As they exit the shop Ray meets with an accident and Kendrick helps him. In the confusion their gifts are exchanged. Zoey thanks Kendrick for helping Ray. On Christmas Eve, both are in for a shock. Kendrick for the absence and Zoey for the presence of the ring.

It's a Christmas feel good movie. So as soon as the characters are established you know where the story will lead. It's only how the director takes you there. Here's the director keeps it simple. Rather than making melodramatic or stretching the story, he keeps it simple and matter of fact.

Zoey is not beautiful but has a pretty smile. She comes across as honest, lively girl with ambitions. Kendrick is also honest, good at heart, compassionate person. Ray's character is undercooked. His acting also needs some more work. Shay is beautiful and portrays a typical career woman. Director has thankfully resisted urge to show her as a villain. Leah plays the daughter and part time Cupid very well.

All in all, it was a short and sweet movie.

Positives: Felt good.

Negatives: Undercooked character of tray.

Recommend watching.
