Lacey Chabert is one of the more reliable Hallmark leading ladies, and has appeared in more good than bad films for the channel (though I remember 'Pride, Prejudice and Mistletoe' not being great), but unfortunately she really comes unstuck in this dire outing.
From the very very far-fetched premise (and this is saying something for a Hallmark film) and a storyline that drags all the way through.
I thought the chemistry between her and the leading man was pretty much non-existent, with the love story element feeling very much tacked on at the end. This is a long than average Hallmark film by about three minutes, and that extra time felt like it was spent trying to cram all of the romantic set-up and conclusion, because there'd been none of this prior.
I was bored throughout, and don't think this really was the best example of Lacey Chabert's work for the channel.
