The Holiday Sitter | 2022 Christmas Movies
As we’re heading into the home stretch of Christmas movies, there are a few that I am looking forward to watching. The Holiday Sitter is one of those movies. Let’s see if it is as good as I hope.
Sam (Jonathan Bennett) gets called to babysit his niece and nephew when his sister, Kathleen (Chelsea Walker), and her husband, Nate (Matthew James Dowden), travel to Buffalo to pick up the newborn baby they are adopting. Unfortunately, Sam is terrible with kids. He hires their neighbor, Jason (George Krissa), to help him with…well, everything. Jason and the kids help change Sam’s viewpoint on family and life.
I loved The Holiday Sitter so much. Bennett, famously known as Aaron from Mean Girls, is such an amazing actor. While he does so well with the romantic drama parts, my favorite parts were when he was overemoting. The way his face contorts is hysterical. This is his third Christmas movie with Hallmark, The Christmas House and The Christmas House 2 being the first two. I love that Bennett has become the face of Hallmark’s gay Christmas movies. All three of those movies are wonderful and I can’t wait to see what comes next for him.
Not only should you watch The Holiday Sitter, you should watch it more than once. It may not be an annual movie to watch with the family but it definitely should be an annual romance movie you watch after you’ve put the kids to bed. It is just that good.
