Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
... View MoreThe movie really just wants to entertain people.
... View MoreIt’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
... View MoreOne of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
... View MoreI'm not usually a big fan of chick flicks, but I'm always open to any movie that looks good and I have to admit that this movie was very entertaining from beginning to end. Good acting, great actors, and very realistic. It wasn't like those movies that the things that happen would never happen in real life, but only in a Hallmark movie. Great plot. Lacey Chabert and Ryan Merriman did an excellent job. I highly recommend it to anybody, both men and women.
... View MoreA flat, unimaginative script is the main killer for this numbing chick flick, but not the only culprit. This appears to be a team effort by the director, writer and actors. I stuck with it because my wife likes to watch movies until the end; since I love harmony with my wife, I forced myself to stay awake. Hallmark Channel seems to be known for sappy flicks -- and sappy flicks have their place -- but this piece of junk would have been better as a high school film project (viewed by a few dozen people).There was, perhaps, one clever line in the entire movie, though I can't recall it now. The lead characters were generic and boring, the plot was oh-so-predictable, and the score was incredibly annoying and ridiculous.The key positive was that it was over in less than 90 minutes.
... View MoreDecided to watch this on my lazy Saturday afternoon. I don't really watch many hallmark movies but there wasn't anything on HBO I wanted to watch. This movie surprised me. It kept me interested the whole time. I really enjoyed it!I didn't actually realize this movie was a modern day Cinderella when watching this which was good for me. Wasn't too cheesy!The 2 leads had great chemistry and I loved the matchmaking secretary. The best friends in the movie were pretty believable. Great casting!This movie was adorable. I would for sure buy it if I came across it in a sales bin at like walmart, video warehouse, or best buy.
... View MoreStill another version of a modern day Cinderella, not oppressed, but rather a free spirit who meets the guy of her dreams when they get stuck in an elevator.Our guy is a hot-shot lawyer who has just been promoted to a partnership in the firm. He is hard driven as work ethic really consumes him. Yet, a strong relationship develops between our 2 lovebirds.The story is basically if people from two different backgrounds can really succeed. It's the old case of compromise here.The cast is great and special kudos to Patty McCormack, as our guy's matchmaking secretary,who sees a good match in the making and fights to sustain it. If anything she is the "good" seed here.(Remember her as the evil child in her Oscar nominated role in 1956's "The Bad Seed?")We see our guy's friend who wants him to date the girl of high social status. She is a snob in every word and our guy has no chemistry with her whatsoever.Love conquers all. It's better than ever here.
