Meet Me Next Christmas | Blogmas Day 1

It's Blogmas Day 1! Happy December!

In order to reunite with the man who may be the love of her life, Layla (Christina Milian) must find a ticket to the sold-out Pentatonix Christmas concert.

Netflix has a few interesting movies coming out over the Christmas period. This one was the first to come out, so it made sense that it should be the first pick of Blogmas.

The main character, Layla, is a fun character to follow from the very beginning. We're invested in her life and we're rooting for her to find the love she wants.

The premise itself is sweet. Generic enough to feel familiar but original enough to still be an intriguing watch. Making it the perfect way to start Blogmas.

I wasn't familiar with Pentatonix or their music, so this film was a great introduction to them, and the way they were incorporated into the film was really fun. 

Because of the group, the music throughout the film was great! I don't think there's a Blogmas movie that will beat this, music-wise.

The main pair don't have as much chemistry together as I would have liked, but they're fun to watch, especially as they spend more and more time together.

The pacing wasn't great - some scenes felt way too long and drawn out. This isn't a long film at all, but it felt longer than it needed to be.

Overall this was a cute, sweet Christmas movie. It probably wasn't the best you'll watch this year, but it's a great way to kick off the holiday season.
