5 out of 5 stars A very refreshing movie.......2007-01-12

The blurb on the case says, "A Christmas classic your family will treasure" but that is silly. This movie, which happens to take place during the Christmas holidays, has a story which has special meaning for people who know what it is like to withdraw, to pretend to live, and to sneak through the workday afraid... knowing that you will be caught and always afraid that today will be that day. While it is a miraculous turn of events which forces Susan Stone to confront where her life is and where it must inevitably lead if she doesn't act, no magical means are involved in her journey back. It just a series of decisions to actually live her life again.

What sings to one person can come across flat for another, I know, but I really believe this is a movie that has a lot to say to people who find themselves mired in the same trap Susan Stone was in.

4 out of 5 stars I loved this movie.......2007-01-08

I saw this on TV a few years ago. At the time I had just gone through a divorce and was pretty sour on men. This movie sucked me right in; it played with my awareness on several different levels, and the casting was wonderful. I finally found the DVD this year, and bought it in a hearbeat. It has now joined the growing stack of movies to watch at Holiday time every year!

5 out of 5 stars Ally Walker did a wonderful job.......2006-05-26

I love this movie so much; in fact, I watched it over and over again. Ally Walker played a boring Susan who would not trust in Santa Claus as well as love. Thanks to Susan's little ghost, she finally realized the importance of life and the beauty of love.

5 out of 5 stars The Journey of the Inner Child.......2005-12-08

Many good Christmas movies have a redemptive theme, such as A Christmas Carol. Some Christmas movies build their theme around self discovery, such as It's a Wonderful Life; and some Christmas movies plead with us to rediscover the Kid within us, such as A Christmas Story or Home Alone. If You Believe weaves all these themes together into a magical story.

The Plot is simple: Susan Stone has worked hard to squeeze all the magic out of her life until she is left lonely, disillusioned, and on the fast track to be fired from her publishing job. Her younger self appears, forces her to take chances, and to rediscover the magic of life. What keeps this story from being just another cliche are the other characters that appear throughout the story: The lawyer from Connecticut, Thom Weller, who has written a weird but funny novel about his physic family; Robin the assistant, who is terrified of Susan; Dorinda, the office competitor who specializes in dirty books; and Mark, the with-it Editor with lots of savey.

The journey is what makes this story a pleasure and reminds one that recovery from self inflicted pain can take place only if one begins to believe in one's self. This very simple film has become a family Christmas tradition.
