| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about One Magic Christmas |
|---|
Ginny Hanks hates Christmas until an angel named Gideon shows her what it would be like without her husband. Gideon also takes Abby (Ginny's daughter) to the North Pole to get a letter that Ginny sent to Santa Claus when she was a little girl. These events lead up to Ginny's Christmas spirit rekindled. This movie is much like "It's a Wonderful Life" or "A Christmas Carol" and just as great.
