A strong cast hindered by mediocre plot development

A looked forward to watching Deck the Walls mostly due to the cast. The house flipping/renovation Holiday Hallmark film is not a novel concept, but I really like both Ashley Greene and Wes Brown. I was impressed with the remainder of the cast leads as well. However, as others mentioned, the motivation behind the character's emotions towards one another took too long to be revealed, and while I do appreciate line upon line development, it was hard to get a grasp on, especially for a Hallmark movie. It would have been very easy to drop that Rose had a crush on Brysen growing up in the initial conversation with Sal. Even still, I didn't understand why she had such animosity towards him when he didn't even know. It would have been one thing if there was a conflict in their history, but nothing. He didn't know, he was with his high school sweetheart, and she kept it hidden. I also felt that the development between Sal and Jake was a little forced. I liked how the backstory unfolded but something just wasn't there. I also felt this featured the most intentional product placements I've seen in Hallmark movies before. Subtle placement is fine, but this was a bit over the top and I feel took a bit away from the film. I love Nutella though, and those cookies looked fire! I think if you are already fans of Ashley Greene, Wes Brown, or Danny Pellegrino, you will enjoy this just fine. It's a good movie to have on while baking cookies- far from the worst one of the season, but is far from an instant classic. It otherwise fits the typical rom-com story arc- here's to a Christmas wish that future lead characters won't be so weakened by odd insecurities or misunderstandings/miscommunication.

Fun!

Not the best Hallmark movie ever made but also far from the worst. I like Wes Brown and I like Ashley Greene; they always elevate these productions with their presence and their chemistry was on point."Deck the Walls" rolls out the old 'professional returns to their home town for the first time in years' and it does so with a charity aspect.Of course, there was the standard moment of miscommunication moment two thirds of the way into the movie, but that - of course, and as is expected - was resolved neatly before a heart-warming ending.I'm sure some people will be upset by the secondary couple being gay, but I wasn't. Their storyline added something to the movie, rather than them being there just for diversity.Solid Hallmark Christmas fun.

It got bogged down in the past and nostalgia.

The problem with "Deck the Walls" is the problem with most rom-coms, a lousy script. It starts out funny and Wes Brown is really good with light fun roles, but Ashley Greens's character got bogged down in the past and nostalgia. That ruined the whole light nature of the film.A high school principal getting in effect a "Habitat for Humanity" home, just didn't work for me. It just didn't pass the smell test so, the movie got another black mark. Danny Pellegrino seemed an odd casting choice, don't know what the producers had in mind.It could have been a much more interesting movie by adding more humor and less of the past and nostalgia.
