12 Gifts of Christmas Trailers

When Anna Parisi, an unemployed fine arts painter, is unable to make ends meet, she is hired to become a personal Christmas shopper for Marc, an uptight corporate exec. As they begin working together, Marc learns that Christmas giving has less to do with the amount of money spent and more to do with the importance of the gift, while Anna discovers she might find success as an artist in a way she never expected. The best gift of all of course is the love they discover with one another.

Reviews
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
mariamru Cute but unlikely to happen. The movie Has all the characteristics of a typical comercial Christmas movie. It has a predictable and superficial plot but despite everything is watchable if you don't have much to do.
Prismark10 Another one of these bland Hallmark Christmas films with adorable, good looking leads.Anna Parisi (Katrina Law) is an aspiring artist who is looking for that big break. We see her getting a brush off from a snooty art museum manager. She turns to her other talent which is personal shopping and develop that into a side business over the upcoming holidays.Marc Rehnquist (Aaron O'Connell) is a workaholic advertising executive who is always on his mobile phone, he briefly met Anna at a bakery and later employs her to pick out Christmas gifts for his family and friends. At first things are difficult as Anna gets a gift for a friend of his that was not in his list but it turns out that his friend actually liked the gift. So he then gives her a free reign to get the kind of presents his friends like, she also gets Marc to connect with his family who he has been distant with and increasingly they spend more time with each other and fall for each other.The plot develops as after a scathing business meeting Marc uses a special painting of Anna's in order for his ad campaign. She overreacts at first for some unfathomable reason even though it will giver her work some prominence.This is an affable film at Christmas but a bit beige with not much plot. However you cannot keep your eyes of Donna Mills who plays Marc's mother. She was 75 years old when she made this movie and with all the work she has had done she does not look like anyone's mother.
PeterBradford1 A fine film to watch around the holidays, with two strong leads. But something bothered me. I mean, really bothered me. I'm not hating on Donna Mills, but she played the main character's mother. The young man is in his late twenties, no older. Donna Mills is made up/lit/diffused/whatever to look thirty years old. The woman in seventy-five. Women that age should not look thirty! She looked more like the character's sister than his mother. That distracted me so much, that's pretty much all I have to say in this review. Good film. Good lead actors. But, damn. Don't make a seventy five year old woman look thirty. It took me right out of the movie.
Irishchatter To be completely honest with you, I think it just looks overrated and pretty much trying to keep the actors act fake as possible. It's like your typical Christmas movie that doesn't have a better outcome. I only watched thirty minutes of this movie and I was just disgusted by this really!I didn't even find it funny when it was suppose to be funny like trust me, I would've rather enjoyed it but I unfortunately didn't! I regret sewing this movie and see that it hasn't got a better storyline nor it has any good characters.I'm afraid this is one Hallmark movie to avoid folks....
