Synopsis:

When a teenage boy desperately needs a heart transplant on Christmas Eve, his family and neighbors' forty-year tradition of lining their quaint street with Christmas luminaries is put on hold. When his parents, Ann and Mike, pray for a donor on a stormy night, the neighbors suddenly realize their luminaries could have a deeper purpose.

A family affair both on- and offscreen, 'The Christmas Heart' overly pushes faith and the power of prayer, which would be more interesting, frankly, if that portion of the movie were expanded, and the hackneyed devices dialed down to, oh, an 8 on a 1-to-10 scale. As is, this Patricia Heaton-produced holiday pic - written by her brother, Michael - is sort of fun, if only to feel smug anticipating every plot beat several minutes before it happens, and to listen for all the conspicuously-Canadian accents popping up in Cleveland and Detroit.
