Movie #2058 ........................."Love, Lights and Hannukah" (Hallmark)

 Movie #2058 "Love, Lights and Hannukah" (Hallmark) Oh Vey!  Sorry, but this wasn't a good one at all --- the lead couple (I didn't know of the credits of the couple but evidently they have done some good stuff in their younger years) were stiff, awkward, and not just for the characterization --- they stood like they couldn't move from their marks, and said lines like they were reading them.  Not good.  And  the story was boring --- there were a few nice moments between Marilu Henner and the lead girl (Mia) but the love interest backed away from each other noticeably,I thought.  Love Hannukah movies that have been done, so this was a shame that  it finally  tried to teach some Jewish traditions and the movie over all wasn't that good.  I give it a weak 3 and suggest you can forget this one for your Christmas movie to  watch list.
