An injured figure skater is sent to the mountains to recover from an injury. Once there, she meets an ex-hockey player and his young daughter and begins to realize that something is missing from her life.
I'm not sure why I've slept on actor Niall Matter until now. He's been in plenty of Hallmark, and Hallmark adjacent movies, some of which I know I've seen. Snowcapped Christmas, aka Falling For Christmas, isn't actually a Hallmark movie, it was produced by the Up Network. Maybe I missed some of Niall's roles because until seeing this movie on a local channel, I'd never seen, or even heard of the network before.
Maybe the reason I overlooked him is because he often co-stars alongside the Christian condescending Candace Cameron Bure. Not all Christians are condescending of course, but given she reportedly left Hallmark due to their focus on inclusion, while at the same time, making millions off of movies about murder.... Homosexuality was never once referenced directly by Jesus, but... he had plenty to say about killing and murder. Just sayin Candy...
But, back to Niall, he was so sexy in this movie. I'd never seen him with such really short hair, and it really works for him. As the single hockey dad he had me wanting to leave the city and move to whatever quaint holiday Christmas town he was living and working in. The 'sort of' Canadian 'Cutting Edge' was filmed in the beautiful Okanagan wilderness at Manning Park and Maple Ridge in British Columbia, Canada. Even that area sounds delicious.
The film is from 2016, but I only saw it last week. At first I was going to skip it, but early in the film, Niall's character Luke pulls up on his snowmobile, and I decided to take a ride with him. Sadly for us, Niall has never done a nude scene, but the Canadian hottie displayed plenty of muscled and shirtless hotness during his time on the series Eureka. (below)
