Review: Not truly a Christmas story
Rating: 3 out of 5

This is another secular "Christmas" story with the overlay of "A Christmas Carol."  It missed the mark for me in two major ways.The first and most obvious is that there isn't anything Christ-like in the story.  It would have been easy to mention faith during the funeral service, or at some point when talking about Christmas.The second is the easy sexuality of the major characters. Both are fairly promiscuous. There is no mention that this isn't the best course of action from a Christian point of view. Perhaps the Christian point of view wouldn't come into play if the story hadn't been centered on Christmas.So why give it a three?  Because the writing is decent, the story moves along, and the Christmas Carol add-on was interesting and imaginatively done.
