A Royal in Paradise (2023 TV Movie)
8/10
Really sweet
3 June 2023
I really liked this movie! Typical? Yes! But who cares? That's not why I'm watching it! The location was breathtaking! I love Rhiannon Fish! She was fantastic as always! Newcomer to the romcom scene, Mitchell Bourke, was awesome! Supporting cast? Fabulous! The queen was a tad over the top with her speech - to an uncomfortable level, in my opinion. (Not the actress, just the writing). I want a movie to whisk me away and dream a little..this one did just that! I will rewatch it again and again. It was sweet, I loved the friendships showcased and I loved the slight changes to the norm on some of the typical romcom stuff!

Two Tickets to Paradise (2022 TV Movie)
10/10
Loved it !!! Funny and Fun!!
27 June 2022
If you think you've seen one Hallmark movie, you've seen them all, well, this movie doesn't change that. BUT, it's presentation of the Hallmark standard is so different than those previously released.

I am speaking as a self-proclaimed romcom (Hallmark) specialist; this is a top 5 movie. For me, it's a co-number 1.

It is laugh out loud funny. The writing was spectacular and Ashley Williams is perfection in bringing the words to life. She is so funny. And Ryan Paevy is the perfect as the "straight " part of this team. I wasn't sure how these to would work, but they did. They are professionals!!

All of the characters are endearing. There were no "unlikeable" characters. Even the "bad guys" were likable. This made the movie genuine.

This may sound strange, but it was a lot more in tune with "real life" than most of the movies. Again, the writing on this one was awesome.

It was fun! I watch Hallmark for the "light" content. I don't want dark and gloomy. For once, the significant other did not die young to leave our leads single and available.

There were no "stupid secrets". Again, the dialogue was normal. You weren't yelling at the tv saying "just tell him!"

And finally, the two non-human characters were incredible. The location and the music. Whoever titled the movie and got rights to Eddie Money's original song and whoever inserted song at the most perfect position toward the end of the movie deserves an award. My favorite part hands down!!

I will watch this one every chance I get!!

The Story of Us (2019 TV Movie)
8/10
A fun watch
17 February 2019
I watch Hallmark romantic comedies for one reason: to be whisked away to another world where reality isn't the number one priority. This movie was perfect for me! I love this cast! Maggie and Sam play off each other perfectly. Maggie's comedic sense is so good and Sam had the great sense as to play off our of her perfectly to make it work beautifully and not make her look silly. Yes, predictable storyline. But I don't mind. The set was beautiful aesthetically, love the cast, I can watch without cringing at language or violence, happy ending, and a kiss at 57 minutes after the hour. That's why I watch these movies and this one was perfect!
