Field Day

I loved this movie. The three main characters have great chemistry. Yes at times it can be a bit cheesy - but I think all Hallmark movies can be. I enjoyed the women navigating real life struggles. For a few hours it is nice to be taken up into a story with a happy ending. It is funny that another reviewer wished they could have the 2 hours back they put into the movie. I usually can tell right away if I am into a story. This movie came on at the perfect time for me - I so enjoyed watching the interaction of the characters. I laughed and particularly enjoy Rachel Boston . I would even like to see a sequel to this movie and see the three women have another adventure together.

All the actors are phenomenal and charming but the storyline that should have been incredible falls short on screen. The dialogue and situations are so incredibly juvenile and seems more like it was written by and for middle school aged kids. This is not an adult rom com. From the pajama pants, to the "you like me," to the kicked out of the clique, to the eavesdropping moms. It's just one childish situation after another. The actors are great and I was so looked forward to this movie, but I caught myself on several occasions checking to make sure I hadn't wandered onto the Disney channel. This one is not a golden star.

A fun and refreshing Hallmark movie, written by Julie Sherman Wolfe, about friendships, new beginnings, the ups and downs of PTO (parent teacher organization), family, and love... featuring some day drinking with the girls and a New Kids on the Block song ;)

Rachel Boston delivered a fun and sweet performance as the lead character. Matt Clarke, even if appearing a few minutes, delivered a poignant performance in a touching scene. Carmel Amit and Shannon Chan-Kent complete the unlikely trio of moms having to organize Field Day at school and it shows through the screen that the three ladies had fun shooting their scenes.

This Hallmark movie is unlike what we usually see as the friendship between the three ladies is out front and center, and not the love story between Boston's and Benjamin Ayres' characters.

This is a must watch if you are a Hallmark or rom-com fan.

This was more about friendship and day drinking than romance I felt, one having appeal to me...the other not so much. The story pitted three PTA outcasts against...I don't know, the cool moms? Widow Jen does not have it all together when she drops her daughter off at school and forgets her lunch...leaves the car in her pajama bottoms which is how she ends up in the forgotten PTA meeting and being mocked on social media. She also ends up on the "leftovers" committee putting on field day with workaholic lawyer Marissa Morris and social influencer Kelly Stewart...who's afraid to show her real life. They attempt to build a romance between Jen and the P. E. Teacher Dan...but it's on and then off and then on and then off, frankly I lost interest which is too bad since I really like both actors and have enjoyed them both in other films.

Again this is more of a girl power, day drinking friendship kind of film...you might enjoy it if that is what you are looking for, but I can't in good conscience recommend it to my fellow romantics. I think they would be disappointed. Maybe it's intended for young modern moms? This may be me showing my age...but we were all about cooperation, hard work, getting the job done and making things truly great for the kids. Love the actors, but I am sorry to say not a recommendation from me.

I found the Hallmark movie "Field Day" to be a sweet and funny movie, full of friendships, grieving and love. It was a nice spin on Hallmark's normalcy's. With lessons in loss and love. Love that also included seeing the special relationships that come from the love from friendships. Funny bits along the way that included life lessons. It was nice to see a movie where you have kind female friend groups. Friends that except each other for their flaws and don't give up on each other. Recognizing that If your circle is not clapping for you, find a different circle. I found the movie to be simply delightful.
