The movie opens following Sir Cole Christopher Frederick Lyons (Josh Whitehouse), a 14th-century knight who is preparing to take part in an epic tournament. Through an array of circumstances that almost feel too specific to spoil, Sir Cole (yes, his name sounds more and more like "circle" as the film goes on) is magically sent to the present day. While there, he literally runs into Brooke (Vanessa Hudgens), a science teacher who is incredibly empathetic to those around her, but wrestles with whether or not to open her heart to romance again. With just days until Christmas, Brooke and Cole form a closer relationship, as he attempts to fulfill the "quest" that sent him to the present to begin with. The whole thing is pretty predictable, with a sister who wants the romance to work out, a niece who has reason to worship the knight, and a good heartedness that is essential for all holiday movies. So if you are looking for something new, this Netflix production may fit the bill.

The Knight Before Christmas (2019)
This is firmly planted in the realm of Christmas movies, which are generally somewhat saccharin with an ending that is easily identifiable from the get go.
