Christmas Perfection aka a movie so bad I had to blog about it

 This movie is creepy.

Also incredibly white.

And it is on Hulu.

Our protagonist Darcy has some serious perfectionism and control issues. Which can be traced to her parents divorce when she was a child. Now she is an adult trying to control everything. 

She sets up her Christmas decorations at midnight on Thanksgiving (seriously WHO does that). Her fav decoration is a Christmas village which she decided is in Ireland where everything is perfect. 

She gets in a fight with her bff who was helping her set up (who is secretly in love with her) and he storms out. She is mad and accidentally breaks the post office in her perfect Christmas village. 

So she does what any rational person does at 2 am on Thanksgiving. Goes for a walk. Happens upon an antiquities shop that is open and SHOCKER has a post office. 

News flash: its enchanted.

She goes to bed, wakes up and is in her Christmas village. Where everyone magically has an Irish accent. And her parents aren't divorced. And everything is perfect. Seriously I wonder if the actors tired of saying "it's perfect" because that is the most frequent line of dialogue. Also it has a super stepford wives feel.

Her bf in this Christmas village is the hot guy from work she has been pining after. Who has the personality of a paint sample. 

Dialogue: 

Her: You really get me.

Him: I know.

Deep thoughts.

Also in this magic Christmas village snow appears, they make a perfect snowman, go to a Christmas sweater factory where you can pick out your colors and they whip a sweater up for you in five minutes, and then dance an Irish jig at the local pub. So perfect. 

She goes to sleep and wakes up and it's Christmas again. Literally every day is Christmas. 

She does all the same things again. 

This movie is a stepford wives/groundhog day knockoff.

In the real world her bff ends up at the antiquities shop and buys something for her that is also SURPRISE enchanted. 

He goes to her house. Where she isn't because she is in Christmasland.

And you guessed it, he wakes up the next day and is there. But thankfully isn't Irish. 

Then a bunch of weird stuff happens. Bff leaves after yelling at her, she is tired of Christmasland, give up, doesn't get out of bed. Perfect bf gets her a makeover and a sash that says "Miss Christmas."That makes it better for a hot sec. 

She realizes she really loves her bff.

She realizes life isn't meant to be perfect.

News flash: therapy could have helped her figure that out a long time ago.

And they all lived imperfectly ever after.
