Meet Me Next Christmas

Their adventures play out with little charm, and the writing is often baffling, including the nonstop references to Pentatonix, who are also awkwardly featured in scenes throughout.

It exists in Netflix festive movie world, an ever-expanding place of ever-diminishing returns, and while this won’t be a film someone would consider returning to next Christmas, it’ll just about do for now.

Christina Milian and Devale Ellis are adorable. That’s the whole movie in a nutshell. Nothing else has to work in order to get what we need out of it. Pentatonix can’t even play themselves convincingly, at all, and it still doesn’t hurt this thing.

Despite an awkward setup, when this quirky Christmas romance settles into the main act of its two lead characters' getting to know each other, it wins in tone and sweetness.

Unfortunately, [Pentatonix] only has about ten minutes of screen time, and the rest of the film is a madcap adventure of a grown woman obsessively trying to get tickets for a Pentatonix show that’s, at best, silly, and at worst, absolute nonsense.

Meet Me Next Christmas may not be a "good" movie in the traditional sense. But within its genre, where movies often feel interchangeable with each other, there's enough here to give this its own identity, and that's something worth praising.

Initially appearing to be just another comedy lost in the streaming cloud ends up working due to the chemistry between the two leads. Didn't reach it's full potential, by not taking the drama seriously enough, but still a cute romantic story I enjoyed.

Meet Me Next Christmas is an enjoyable early November Christmas movie outing that benefits from its likable cast and not being the 20th or 50th holiday film of the season.

Meet Me Next Christmas is a cozy holiday rom-com that embraces the genre's classic tropes while adding a splash of musical charm.

But Meet Me Next Christmas is a really weird movie. It’s mostly a feature-length advertisement for the Grammy-winning a cappella group Pentatonix if anyone remembers those guys. I have no idea why this is the case.
