To be honest, I didn’t even have Your Christmas Or Mine? on my list of movies this year. I do have some other Amazon original movies on the list. I’m not sure how I missed this one.
James (Asa Butterfield) and Hayley (Cora Kirk) have just recently started dating. As they get on their respective trains to go to their respective houses for Christmas, they both make the rash decision to switch trains to surprise the other. Unfortunately, that means that James ends up at Hayley’s family house without Hayley and Hayley ends up at James’s family house without James. They learn way more about each other than they had planned.
Your Christmas Or Mine? was a nice little twist on The Gift Of The Magi story. They both wanted to surprise each other but it wasn’t the surprise they were expecting. And while both families are complete opposites, both James and Hayley had a lasting effect on each of them. My husband didn’t like the movie as much as I did but sometimes he gets nitpicky with Christmas movies.
This one is a nice Christmas movie to watch. It has a little more Christmas and a little less romance as the Hallmark/Lifetime movies but I appreciated the differences. If you are looking for something a little bit different and a little bit British, this would do nicely.
