Lindsay Lohan's Christmas Movie Is Actually Medium-Okay

Netflix's 'Falling For Christmas' delivers a solid comeback performance from Lindsay Lohan. rilaws reviews:

is back in bright form in the better-than-average Christmas B-movie, concerns a wealthy hotel heiress, Sierra, who takes a nasty tumble while backcountry skiing, bonks her head on a tree , and wakes up with amnesia. When a kindly, struggling lodge owner, Jake takes her in, Sierra, now called Sarah, learns the true meaning of love, family, career, and, of course, Christmas.

So it’s a story of reinvention for an actor trying to do the same. It mostly works a treat. Lohan’s performance is perky and agreeable, a shimmer of that old charm dancing around her for the first time in a while. I’d happily watch her in more after this—though preferably in something a bit meatier than a Hallmark knock-off.really committed to telling a fun story, pre-amnesia Sierra would be a total nightmare, mean and spoiled and abusive to staff.

To the film’s credit, it only mimics the more amiable aspects of schlocky Christmas fare. Jake is the softly rugged archetype, he’s got a precocious daughter , a devoted old mother-in-law , and a sad backstory involving a dead wife. That’s all acceptably standard-issue. As is the Christmas-obsessed town where these two resorts—Sierra’s family’s tony one, Jake’s homey but failing one—lay their scene.
