Bad casting of Dylan's brother Bryce.


No. Just no. What were they thinking casting a guy so much shorter than the the leading male character? He was supposed to be this brother who stole his girl and made him bitter, but really that would never happen. Made it very unbelivable.

It's a movie.


What if a 280 pound woman was cast as the love interest that two or more men were fighting over throughout the whole film or ending up with her was a good looking male character's motivation for the plot of the movie? Would you say "come on this is not believable" or would you say "it's a movie."?

just wondering.

What does his height have to do with anything? Do you think the brothers should be the same height? LOL.
Duh.
I have three kids and now that they are adults they all look totally different.
Do you have kids?
Are you just in a bad mood? Or have you decided that you know more than the people who cast actors for this movie?
The cast is great and it is a positive,cheerful,wholesome and Christmas-y type of film without all the X-rated stuff the trashy people want to see which results in the show-biz people producing crap now days .
It IS designed for watching at Christmas ya know!
It is just a movie!
Get a life!

I know. Some people just love to nit-pick every little detail and are so busy trying to find everything they think is wrong with the movie, that it makes it imposslble for them to enjoy the movie.

They need to realize that no movie is "perfect" or error-free, because they were made by humans, and no human being is perfect.

exactly what I was thinking. I have 2 brothers, My older brother is 6'3" and my younger brother is 6'6" I'm the short one at 5'9 1/2" plus neither of my brothers look like each other. Not sure what the OP was drinking/smoking at the time they posted their comment, but they seriously need to realize that not all family members resemble each other

reply

Not just shorter and not as handsome as brother but he was even shorter than the girl. So not believable.

reply

I agree. I just watched the movie and was thinking why on earth would she dump Dylan for Bryce?!

Wonder is the seed of knowledge.🐈 

reply

So short men are untouchable or something? Not all women are so superficial.

reply

Exactly! I actually prefer shorter men being petite myself. I also like a beard. However, personality is the decider!

reply

Wanna bet he had other attributes she was attracted to? 😉

reply

Thought the same thing. Dweebo.

reply

Because personality clearly counts for nothing. Also, his brother was rocking a pretty sweet beard.
