Columbo star Peter Falk stars as Max the Christmas angel, who attempts to reunite a fallen hero with his family and help a nurse to save her E.R. from being closed.
I've found this Christmas movie to be dramatic and a little touchy, with a dose of fantasy. It's a nice little drama that takes a while to gain traction in some parts, but Peter Falk does provide much needed entertainment in the film.
William Russ did a fine job as Hank and Valerie Bertinelli was great as Kathleen McAllister, sensitive and believable in her role.
There were many special feel-good moments in the film, so, it is really a film for those who really enjoy sappy, carefree family films. I myself thought the movie wasn't bad, but thought the plot could have used a little more suspense.
Grade B-
