The earlier Christmas Kiss had successful theme, plot, Christmastime philosophy, casting and generally worked. This remake follows the plot but not the theme as the rich are not focused and realistic while the ordinary folk are not enticing in their fictitious characters. This film is primarily for those seeking more and more choices of seasonal movies on the Christmas theme but in no way one of the better ones other and Elisabeth Roehm shining in both in a secondary not the heroine role.

This sequel to "A Christmas Kiss I" is great! In "A Christmas Kiss II," the female protagonist, Jenna, played by Elizabeth Harnois, is a budding designer who is assistant to Mia, the owner of a fashion magazine. In arranging a photo shoot, she has to get decked out in "Mrs. Claus" outfit, along with gaudy jewelry when the model doesn't show up. Meanwhile, Mia's playboy brother, Cooper, shows up along with his bimbo. He wants to celebrate Christmas with his sister Mia. Jenna meets Cooper on the elevator, where she has a feisty conversation with Mr.Playboy, before the elevator gets stuck. As in the first movie, A Christmas Kiss, they appear to be under the mistletoe and are irresistibly drawn to each other and have an amazing kiss. Mia is unhappy that her brother, who is a partner in the company, has come around to bother her, so Jenna suggests that Mia give him a job to do. Naturally Mia assigns "handling Cooper" to Jenna. And so it goes....There is the friend next door to Jenna, the bad parent, the jealous bimbo that messes with the budding relationship, and finally the satisfying conclusion. This sequel is better than "A Christmas Kiss"- Elizabeth Harnois, as Jenna, is older and more seasoned than the girl in Kiss I. Much more of a reasonable match with the guy. In Kiss I, the girl is Way too Young for Brendon Fehr! And I just can't get past Brenden Fehr's hair. I didn't care for the jewelry though! WAY too over the top and huge!!

What a wonderful story about two people falling in love. I have seen many love stories but this one is terrific. I have watched this movie over and over again. I use to watch A Christmas Kiss the same way and I bought the DVD as well. I have looked and looked for A Christmas Kiss II on DVD but as of yet I have not found it. If you love romance stories you will like this one for sure. The cast is perfect and I just love Cooper and Jenna. Sebastian is also great. This is one of my favorite movies and I have quite a collection but I can say this one is the one I watch the most and even though it happened at Christmas, I watch it all year. I can only hope some day soon it will be on DVD.

Jenna (Elizabeth Hamois) is a very capable assistant to the lady, Mia, who runs a style magazine. Secretly, Jenna longs to be a designer and show her drawings to Mia, but J's courage has always failed her. This upsets her dearest pal, Cooper, who also doubles as her next door neighbor. At this moment, Jenna is estranged from her father, who has a new wife and very little time for his daughter. So, Cooper's support is paramount. The December holiday season is approaching so mistletoe hangs in the building's elevator. One day, when Jenna is going up, the door opens and in walks a great looking guy, Sebastian (Jonathan Bennett). Its just the two of them and the man winks at Jenna before he bestows a brief kiss on her lips. Even so, the smooch is dynamite and, amazingly, Jen gives Sebastian a MUCH longer kiss in return. What was she thinking? Especially when Sebastian turns out to be the playboy brother of her boss, Mia, and co-owner of the company, even in absentia? All too soon, Jenna hears and sees enough to know that Sebastian is not reliable dating material. Yet, he keeps pushing the envelope for a date. Oh ho, now Cooper is especially handy because Jenna needs him to pretend to be her boyfriend! Mia tells her assistant that her bro has an on again, off again girlfriend named Brittany anyway. So, will Jenna continue to dampen the ardor of this handsome man and will she get the courage to show her drawings to Mia? Dear romcom fans, this viewer didn't see Kiss Number One but if its anything like this one, its good. What's not to like about a talented, fetching cast, a sweet, funny script, envious costumes, lovely sets and a confident direction? Therefore, kiss off any staid plans you don't want anyway and go get this winning flick instead.
