The Family Man

 Hey Everyone, One week till Christmas Yay!

 Ten sleeps and nine more days, I absolutely love Christmas the best way to spread Christmas Cheer is singing Loud for all to hear, I have decided to write about a Christmas movie I like and enjoy watching.

It is called the Family Man Starring Nicolas Cage, Tea Leoni, Don Cheadle, Jake Milkovich, Jeremy Piven, Makenzie Vega And a whole wonderful cast of people! 

The movie starts off with a man named Jack Campbell and a woman named Kate Reynolds who have been together since college are at the JFK airport, Jack is about to leave to take up a 12 month internship in London with Barclays.

 Kate is afraid the separation will bring tension and detrimental to their current and lovely, over the moon, romantic relationship, she asks him not to go to London.

Jack tells her their love is strong and can conquer anything and that the internship will be beneficial to their future together, well we then see it is thirteen years later and we see Jack is a now a wealthy Bachelor and wall executive in New York City with Millions at his disposal.

 At Work he is putting together a Multi-Million dollar Merger and has ordered an emergency meeting on Christmas Day disregarding his employees desires to spend time with their families, while he is in his office on Christmas Eve he gets a message to contact Kate  Jack is thinking if Kate wants to reconnect with him, he decides not to return her call.

 He leaves the office and is on his way home Jack goes into a convince store when a young man named Cash demands that he has a winning lottery ticket that is worth 238 dollars, the store clerk refuses him and he tells him the ticket is a forgery.

Cash pulls out a gun and Jack tries to defuse the situation and offers to by the ticket calling it a business deal he accepts Jack's offer, Jack is outside with Cash and he is patronizingly trying to help Cash, who feels like he is being preached to asks Jack if anything is missing from his own life.

 Jack haplessly says he has everything he need, Cash tells him that he has brought this upon himself and he goes back to his Pen House to sleep, the next morning a turn of events happens he wakes up and he finds out that he is with Kate Reyonlds in a suburban New Jersey Home and has two children named Annie and Josh.

 He is freaking out and is really confused about what is happening he hops in a van and drives to New York City, his doorman and his neighbor unfortunately don't remember him he is getting frustrated and bent out of shape because they don't have a recollection of who he is, he tells them countless times that he lives in the building.

He leaves the building and he goes to his office guess what? No one recognizes him there either, he tells them that he is the president of the office where he works he comes to find out, there is a new president now he goes back outside and he runs into Cash who is driving a Ferrari which was Jack's car and he has a whole new wardrobe, he offers to explain what is happening to him and gives a vague reference to the organization he tells jack that he is getting a glimpse of something that will help him to figure out for himself what is important in life.

Jack is back at the house and he sees Kate and tries to tell the truth about what's happening and she reacts angrily, in return of the situation he is in he receives some help from his young daughter Annie she believes Jack is an Alien and her real dad will return soon to her and her brother Josh.

 He is struggling with adjusting to fatherhood and the modest family life he finds out that he is a tire salesman working for Kates father and she is a non- profit lawyer, he finds out the life he would have had if he stayed in the USA, and he resents Kate for holding him back.

 He later apologizes to Kate and he is growing closer to Annie and her baby brother Josh, he is realizing he never fell out of love with Kate.

 He is enjoying family life and begins succeeding at his sales job, he then runs into someone he knows his former boss Peter Lassiter, he invites Jack to his office, after a short interview Lassiter offers Jack a position, while he is excited by the potential salary and other perks including a apartment in Manhattan.

Kate is less certain and she tells Jack they should be thankful for the life they have and created together Jack returns home and finds a plane ticket to London, upon closer examination he realizes he did take the flight and then came back the next day to be with Kate.

Kate is reminded of Jack's choice and returns his feelings by telling him she is prepared to follow him and move the family in order to do just as Jack did for her, Jack encounters Cash at the Grocery Store and is frightened by the idea of leaving the life he is previously in which he now loves and doesn't want to leave behind.

 Cash reminds him this was just a glimpse of a life that he could have if he would have stayed with Kate, Jack returns home again and watches Annie and Josh sleep, he returns to his room and tries to watch Kate sleep he ends up getting tired, he wakes up and finds himself back to his old life on Christmas Day.

Jack returns to his office and making plans to go to Aspen to close a big Acquisition Deal to prevent it from failing before he does that he plans to go see Kate and she is an unwed corporate lawyer preparing to move to Paris, she only called him to return a box of his old possessions, Jack makes a suggestion and asks if they can meet for Coffee she tells him look her up if he's ever in Paris. 

You will have to see the rest of the movie to find out what happens with Kate and Jack, I can tell you it is a happy ending and will leave you with a smile on your face and joy in your Heart.

 I decided to write about this movie because I love family and it is a really good story it really draws you into the story and pulls on your heart strings and you can feel the emotions of what all the characters are feeling at that moment in time.

My family is my Heart I love visiting my family and spending time with my family, I stay in touch with all of my family members because I enjoy talking with them and I want them to know that I love and care about them and that I am thinking of them.

My family has been there for me through everything.... I can feel all the love and care they have for me pour into me and my heart, Spend as much time with family as you can, life is fun, lovely, and Golden... It is also short always remember to tell your family or friend or whoever you are close with what is on your heart while they are still here to hear it.

  It is easy to say I can tell them this tomorrow or next time I see them, you don't want to let the moment pass you by because something may end up happening to the person and then that chance will be gone... Cherish the moment.. and seize every opportunity you have with your family and friends.

 I seized every opportunity I had with my friend Kelly, she was such a joy and a beautiful lady inside and out she had a big heart of Gold, I first met her at an AKA Health Event And when I started talking with her I learned she is also a Nittany Lion and attended Penn State.

And from that moment on we became very good friends and she lit up every room she was in... and always had the brightest and happiest smile... one of my favorite moments with her is when my mom did an AKA Photo Shoot and Kelly was there She was in the room hyping up all the ladies who were getting their photos taken, My mom went ahead and she stood In front of the camera and Kelly started Hyping her up and telling her all kinds of things to make her smile and be happy throughout the photo shoot! 

She did an incredible job with hyping my mom up throughout the photo session.... That is a moment I will always treasure I can say so many things about Kelly and all the memories and moments we shared together I will say I am forever blessed and grateful and thankful to have had a Kelly Experience... She truly changed me for Good! 

I will always have a special place in my heart for her... One fun thing I shared with her is She always loved my selfies, and would tell me I can't wait to see your next selfies... Yass Girl!! 

I know you love your selfies, You are a selfie Queen! At times when I take a selfie, I think of her often and smile and I know she's loving my selfies and saying Yass Girl! Don't let the moment pass you by.... Say what you want to say right at the moment Don't wait!

My favorite scene from the movie is when Jack is freaking out about the new life he is in, and no one remembers who he is even when he is explaining to them who he is.. they still don't have a clue that scene makes me laugh a lot!

 I also like the scene where he starts getting close with Annie and Josh, Annie is helping him out and showing him how to take care of Josh! 

I recommend this movie to anyone who wants to watch a good family film!
