Christmas List is an endearing and heartwarming romantic comedy that tells the story of a career-oriented woman named Isobel Gray, played by Alicia Witt, who seems to have everything in life but true love. Isobel's life revolves around her career, and she is laser-focused on getting a promotion at the department store she works for. However, things start to change when she stumbles upon an old Christmas list she made when she was a child, and it unexpectedly rekindles her holiday spirit and awakens long-forgotten desires.

The list contained all the things that Isobel wished for during the festive season, and she becomes determined to achieve them all before Christmas. The first item on her list is to visit her hometown, which she hasn't visited in many years. While in town, she rekindles her friendship with her childhood buddy, Brett, played by Gabriel Hogan, who she had lost touch with over the years.

Brett is the complete opposite of Isobel- he's carefree, unpredictable, and enjoys living in the present moment. They connect immediately, and he becomes her ally in completing her Christmas list. Together, they embark on an adventure that takes them through the town, and they engage in several festive activities, such as ice skating, decorating the town, and attending holiday festivals.

But Isobel's focus on her job is jeopardizing her chance at real happiness. She is so fixated on getting a promotion that she can't see the things that are truly meaningful in her life. Brett tries to show her that she needs to reevaluate her priorities, but Isobel remains skeptical of his advice.

Meanwhile, Isobel also rekindles her relationship with her father, who she had been estranged from since her mother's death. In the process, she learns a few things about herself, and starts to understand why she is so consumed with work. As the items on her list get checked off, Isobel realizes that true happiness is about more than just accomplishing tasks. It's about being present, cherishing the people you love, and appreciating the small moments in life that bring joy.

The film has a strong message about the importance of cherishing memories and people, especially during the holiday season. The storyline of the movie is straightforward, and the characters are relatable, and the performances by the actors are sincere and authentic.
