Average Rom Com
gbyzp7 October 2023
Let's be honest - there are only so many ways to follow the rom-com formula and be new, fun, and engaging.

This particular attempt falls short in a lot of the acting which seems stilted or fake.

Lexi Giovagnoli is not remotely believable as a Hollywood paparazzi photographer. Her portrayal of this character is so lifeless that she also falls short of winning over the hearts of the viewers who are supposed to want her to get the guy.

If you are looking for filler while you wait for your favorite shows to drop new episodes - this is not completely unwatchable. It ticks all the rom-com formula boxes. Just don't expect stellar performances or dialogue and you will be fine.

Slow-Moving, Bad Acting
jmnix3 September 2022
I did finish the movie but only because I didn't object to the overall rating, PG, and I usually watch movies to the end unless I find it offensive.

But it was so very slow moving. There were numerous long pauses of no action or conversation. It just dragged.

The acting was often times horrible. Many cases of overacting, but for the most part it seemed fake, rather than pulling you into the movie.

The script wasn't great either, and felt forced at times. Overall theme seemed reasonable, but the direction given was over the top and unbelievable.

No foul language. No bedroom scenes or allusions to such.

The whole movie I just wanted to fast-forward to the predictable end just to get done with it.

Amateur acting and poor writing
KingRolloThe2nd16 July 2022
Rented this for $4 on YouTube, and it felt like a waste. Storyline is uninteresting and full of cliches. The acting is akin to an amateur theatre group, at times flat, at times over the top, but hadly ever feels natural.

Pretty painful to watch at times
shermie-6653524 September 2023
This movie was playing on the Tubi streaming service. I'm glad I didn't pay to see it.

The acting is very stinted especially with the minor characters like the newscasters and the boss at the talent agency. I'm so ready to shut off the movie, but I am in the mood for a mindless romance movie. This definitely meets that requirement. The two leads were cute together but rather boring around them.

She's a photographer? All the pictures taken in Hollywood are digital but her visit "home" are film. I've been a photographer, who does film cameras these days?

It's just as predictable as the usual Brian Brough and Brittany Wiscombe usual bland movies.

Seriously! How DOES this woman keep getting gigs?!?!
pageantprincess5 October 2023
I've watched movies that Lexi G is in because the plots seem like they could be tolerable and mostly because I don't realize she's in them until I start the film. BUT I never make it past 10 minutes before I just CAN'T survive any more FLAT AFFECT. Presumably she must have a personality when she is in real life, when she's with friends... Why, oh why, can't she translate that into her acting.

I've seen her earlier movies and couldn't stand her but took a chance on this one because I figured it's been years... SURELY, she MUST have improved.... How, after almost 20 years of acting, is she still performing like a sophomore in high school who joined the drama club because of some cute boy but actually has no talent. Maybe she should get some life experience so it can translate into her performances.

Producers and Directors... STOP hiring her UNTIL and UNLESS she can give a performance that seems LIFE LIKE!

Typical Nicely Entertainment product, bad.
Avidviewer-028473 October 2023
Nicely Entertainment/G It's Entertainment productions have to be the most amateur of the rom-com production companies. You can tell that there isn't much money for locations and actors. Probably little time for rehearsals and direction is minimal. Poor scripts and painfully poor acting are hallmarks, quantity over quality,

Hallmark rom-coms aren't perfect but they're a thousand percent better especially with the acting. If a script is good, viewers will overlook some of the bad inexperienced acting, but when the script is also bad it's doomed.

Giovagnoli has been in a number of films, but she always plays basically the same character, no range in acting. Looks like cast and crew work as cast or crew or both depending on need.

the green apple
Kirpianuscus20 August 2023
I am far to can be enthusiastic about this fim. The good points are the performances of. Rachel McCubbin and DeGaye. But, in the last case, the good intention of transformation of a version of Cruela in pleasant boss is just fake. Benedict Mayurek can offer ony a goofy Parker, unrealistic to pure stupid.

Exi Giovagnoi tries to fix her Adrian ( as Romanian, i was amused by the name who, in my language, it is a boy name ) but the result is imposed by Halmark recipe.

The real good point - maybe the green apple and the fal of Parker. Is it enough ? I do not know but, I suppose, for Hallmark fans, the detais from cinema - media industry, defined by a ot of cliches are just good gift offered by film.
