VIDEO – 3.75/5, AUDIO – 3.5/5

Both films are presented with a 16×9 enhanced 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and come with standard Dolby Digital 2.0 tracks, providing for clear dialogue levels and okay depth for the Christmas music.

OVERALL – 2.5/5

Overall, both Wrapped Up in Christmas and Snowed-Inn Christmas are fine family fare movies produced to air on Lifetime as they attempt to compete with the Hallmark Channel for the cheesy holiday romance segment of the population. Neither one of these were my cup of tea, but perfectly innocent movies.
