Movie # 2046 ........................."Five Star Christmas" (Hallmark)

 Movie #2046 "Five Star Christmas" (Hallmark)  Loved this one a lot --- actually a romantic comedy because the comedy was of equal value.  The secondary stories were fun as much as the lead story --- Of course, I guessed the plot a couple of minutes in but that's pretty easy if you have seen a lot of these Hallmark films.  This is different because everyone is playing two characters so just when you meet them, they have to change to someone else due to the plot.  The only complaint I have about this one is the "coming together"  or high point --- when  he sings the Elvin song --- seemed out of the blue --- everything got tied up without any "talk" over what happened.... and that high point scene (above) was in front  of a bunch of people which I hate --- because it makes the scene more unbelievable to me.  I'd give this one 4 out of 5 because the rest seemed to work for me.
