Movie #2045 ........................."Christmas House 2: Deck Those Halls" (Hallmark)

 Movie #2045 "Christmas House 2:  Deck Those Halls" (Hallmark)  The first one was fun --- nice strong parental couple (Sharon Lawrence and Treat Williams) put a call in to their two sons (one a big actor of courtroom drama) to come to the house for one last Christmas because they are selling the place --- okay, the actor son ended up with the house, but now  in this part 2, he is asked to be in a contest to decorate his house verses someone else doing it --- the other famous person poops out at christmas time, so the powers that be decide it would be fun to pit brother against brother -- not really, unless you have a messy christmas gathering, which almost happens.  All the people are capable here, but the story is slight and pretty silly.  One plus is that it really isn't centered on boy/girl love --- in fact, one couple is gay but what it focuses on (like Frozen) is sibling love.  I give it 3.8 out of 5.
