The film was filmed on location in historic Independence Square in Independence, Missouri, which actually looks like it all year round
Alana Higman, a die-hard Kansas City Chiefs fan, and her family compete to win the team’s Fan of the Year competition in a process judged by Director of Fan Engagement Derrick. Come full happily-ever-after — After this year’s collection of holiday-themed romantic movies you can watch from the comfort of your own home.
The Square also does a Christmas lighting display similar to the one in the movie
The locations that served as the Higman family store and Norman and Nick’s BBQ restaurant are also real-life family-owned businesses. UK viewer here, so all the excitement and fervent passion for the American football team was lost on someone on this side of the pond.
Hynes in action
I watched simply because I love seeing Tyler. His previous work has always had a cheeky sense of humor in it — what girl wouldn’t love that!
This movie was largely missed
His screen time was completely wasted as the over-the-top actor in the most absurd family, and combined with the ridiculous story, you get to the point where you’d rather walk on hot coals than sit through it all. Hunter King never cut a nut as a romantic lead.
It showed that there was no chemistry between the two
Hynes had a much better rapport with the other actors, which was more believable in his previous movies. Hopefully Hynes gets more movies in the same way that it always was you – because this movie did him no favors at all.
