‘Hanukkah on the Rocks’ offers Hallmark’s usual holiday joy but with a menorah

A while back, when there were only a handful, I’d occasionally critique Hallmark or Lifetime holiday movies. However, by 2024, with an additional 44 films added to their lineup, it feels redundant. Truth be told, you could almost script them yourself. Aside from serving as a form of relaxation, watching them seems unnecessary, even for entertainment’s sake.
