I really liked when Christina Milan did 'Snowglobe'. It was great. So, I was really hopeful for Christmas Cupid. It is semi-cute which about the best I can say for it. There's some humor to it, but the story just isn't that solid and tended to wander a bit. Cynthia Evans character comes off rather sleezy which I didn't think was appropriate for a Christmas movie. Then again, ABC Family has been far from "Family oriented" with much of their recent programming. So, in many ways, I guess I should have seen this movie coming.
I might suggest renting it and watching it one time, but I would keep the younger kids out of the room. My teenager thought it was boring and not very funny - keep in mind that my teenager loved Snowglobe too. This movie isn't as bad as some 'Christmas movies' (i.e. Happy Feet), but it definitely missed the target on being a classic, unforgettable or one that should be watched year after year.
This film was definitly aimed at the under 20 crowd.... so unless you like rap and poor acting,don't waste your money. I tried to watch it all the way through to get a better understanding about what the younger crowd was into.... but I couldn't. It drove me nuts. Gonna donate it to the library.

Full disclosure: we are going through 1-2 hallmark type Christmas movies a day right now. We finish most but not all. This is the worst one we have seen this year. Gave it 15 minutes and just stopped. Acting is not the worst but the storyline and worse the writing is hideous. After seeing the ghost of her dead friend one lady exclaims in shock "I see dead people", a totally unfitting reference to 6th sense. And then just minutes later the same girl smiley and buddy buddy with her doctor friend. Just rubbish all around. A similar concept but FAR better executed was Christmas Magic.
