Rating: 7/10
Reason: The acting was good, and the story was different than most Christmas movies.
*Watched on Disney+ (Age 14+)
SPOILERS BELOW!
There's this lady who can't sleep. She's getting married in a few weeks, but she can't sleep, and can't focus on wedding stuff.
There's a guy who can't sleep. His girlfriend breaks up with him because he's a mess.
The lady decides to go for a drive because she can't sleep.
The guy decides to go for a jog because he can't sleep.
She hits him with her car...
She offers to bring him to the hospital. She's playing a stupid song on the radio, so he turns it off. She gets mad and says, "don't touch my radio," and turns it back on.
They get to the hospital and he says, "don't you want to listen to the rest of your song?" So they stay in the car... And fall asleep!
They are awakened the next day by paramedics who were called because of the 2 people passed out in a car. Turns out the 2 insomniacs can sleep if they are together!
They go their separate ways, a few days pass, she can't sleep. She thinks maybe it was him! So she goes to the bar where he works and says, "let's try to sleep together." He thinks she's crazy and sends her away, thinks about it, calls her, and they meet up to sleep in her car.
She figures it's a thing, so she makes up a contract, she'll loan him money so he can open his own bar, and they'll meet up to sleep together. He asks if it has to be in the car....
They head to a hotel to test it out... It works!
They keep meeting up to sleep, they become friendly. Banter. hahaha
They sleep at his place (hotels are expensive).
Does he like her? "No, she's engaged!" That would be ridiculous.
She asks him why he can't sleep. Turns out his dad left to go live with his girlfriend in the middle of the night when he was a kid. Hasn't slept well since then.
Her dad was always super busy, then her mom died and she thought he'd have more time for her, but nothing changed... They both have Daddy issues.
The lady's fiance uses 'find my phone' and discovers she's at the hotel. He shows up and she tries explaining that they are just sleeping, no sex. So he says, "prove it."
So the 3 of them head to the sleep clinic...
And it works, but now the finance is mad. Why can she sleep with him, but not me?
So she starts pretending that she can sleep again.
Fiance demands they stop seeing each other, sleepy guy needs to pay back the loan. But fiance will still allow all the sleepy guy's friends to come to the wedding. Now sleepy guy is sad... So sad he decides he can't be at the wedding.
Time for wedding. Vows. Fiance says yes, sleepy girl dozes off. Wait... Has she been faking sleeping? Maybe we aren't right for each other! Sleepy girl agrees and says no.
She runs out of the church and drives off in the wedding car. She sees sleepy guy running, and turns to try to catch him... She hits him with the car! Hahaha, again?!
Sleepy buddys get in bed, and a baby cries?!? The both say, "not it." Apparently we have jumped forward in time....
The end
I guess I won’t be subscribing to Disney+ for Christmas movies……thanks, Sherilyn, now you’re not only saving me time, but $$$$ as well 🤗
ReplyDeleteThere may be some good ones on Disney, I haven't looked very hard on there yet.
