A heart-warming Christmas movie! November 19, 2008 L. King (Seattle area) This is another one of those movies that I saw on TV and had to have it to watch over and over! It's a sweet family type of movie that will warm you from the inside out. I don't get tired of watching it. Nancy McKeon and all the cast do a great job. Enjoy!
Nice Christmas movie....sorta. January 13, 2008 Michelle Polk (Mississippi, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This movie is similiar to Family Man, only the main Character is a woman who gets hit on the head. It is a decent film that the whole family can watch together.

This movie was fun to watch. It's a nice and easy one to view while decorating for the holidays or just relaxing in your PJ's with a steaming cup of tea.
Fine Holiday Fare August 25, 2007 Bklyn gal (Bklyn, NY) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
A Lifetime Original Movie, this is a very similar film to Nicholas Cage's "Family Man." Nancy McKeon plays a very sucessful, yet emotionally unsatisfied, corporate executive. She is the epitome of the "21st century woman"- independent, powerful, beautiful apartment, expensive car- but is she really happy? Her empty relationship with a co-worker and dysfunctional family make it especially difficult to just plow through the holiday season without taking stock of what her life has become. Despite her outward success, the unspoken question in her mind is " How did I get here?" The idea of a different life is put to the test when she has an accident and wakes up in an alternate reality as a wife, mother and pillar of her community. She also sees how her different life choices affect those around her. The alternate life does not come without its compromises (no expensive car or clothes in this version of life), but do the pros outweigh the cons? Are the benefits of this "new" life enough to make her stay? Are the experiences in the alternate life fulfilling enough to make her want to jump ship and set her sights for a new shore? I won't answer that question. You'll have to see how it turns out for yourself. It is a great movie for anyone who has ever wondered "what if" or who has thought that "the grass is always greener on the other side." It is a story about finding your life's balance and knowing that, whatever you choose, does not come without its sacrifices. Those sacrifices, however, if it's the right choice for you, are a small price to pay for true happiness and living your best life.
Solid Christmas Fare March 9, 2007 Suzie Ven (Roy, UT USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I love movies that offer the "what if" scenario. Nancy McKeon is down to earth and very likeable in her lead role. As the film begins, McKeon is presented as a very successful career woman, who lives alone. On her way home from the office, on Christmas eve, her car hits a patch of black ice and she swerves out of control, bumping her head in the process. What follows is akin to the plot in "The Family Man" (although not as well done). The man that rushes to her aid, claims to be her husband. He ushers her into the house across the street, despite her arguments, where two solicitous children begin calling her "mom." McKeon embarks on a journey to discover what is real and what is fantasy. It was a cute show.
