General audiences, Weak Plot
Weak plot. Same old story. Joy comes home for holiday and meet old High School acquaintance. No Chemistry. Ben is a whimp and too easily put off. Ending is weak and anti climatic. Preparations and execution for the town cookie contest and gingerbread contest was boring and cliche'.
