"William Devane was fantastic in this movie, as usual! The movie has it all...drama,intrigue, excitement, tears, humor, romance, patrioticsm and the Christmas Spirit! Although a little predictable, it is still a wonderful movie the entire family can watch! It isn't often you see a movie that leaves you with a good feeling in your heart!!!! This is one of those movies! A great movie to see anytime, not just at Christmas! A wonderful, thought-provoking movie for those who have a lost a loved one in the war!"

"I saw this movie on the Hallmark Channel last Christmas and I was so moved by the message and the story (being a vet myself) that I had to have it.. it is a definite must-get for Christmas.."
A good holiday movie

"The "Holidays" seem to be synonmous with "family". For this family, there are no more holidays because their son was killed in the Gulf War. You don't have to have lost a loved one to understand the emotions in this story. There's only a few characters but they play their parts superbly. My favorite Christmas movie."
Sad and Touching Christmas Movie!

"This is a sad and touching Christmas movie about a family who hasn't celebrated Christmas for years.They had stopped celebrating Christmas because only a couple of days before Christmas the last time they had their tree, and decorations up they had found out that their son had been killed in the Gulf War. It is several years later and their daughter may have cancer and a mysterious stranger shows up saying that he knew their son and he helps them to have faith and to rediscover the true meaning of Christmas and there is a nice surprise at the end of this movie. Get out the tissues or hankies for this one!"
