Romance on the Ranch

The dead Dad in the photo was an excellent actor and should have been in the credits! This was a classic Hallmark style movie and is perfect for people who enjoy that style. If not, then maybe it's not for you, but I thought it was fun, cheesy, and enjoyable. Again, the actor who was the Dad was top tier and really should have been mentioned in the credits, especially since some random background actor who had barely any screen time were mentioned. Any way, it was an overall good movie and perfect for people who love a sappy romance with happy endings and funny dialogue. What a great movie and great dead Dad!

The overall plot was super predictable and most by of the actors aren the best but no on is talking about how photogenic the actor for the dead father was in that photo the look of pure joy in the kids eyes around me just really reminds me how important the role of gatherers this man has no lines and isn't shown in any other moments but this photo but when his photo is shown literal tears like it really makes me feel for the main character his one scene I feel has changed my perspective and view on life. The field was so beautiful and honestly gorgeous it shows the meaning of love the father showed for his daughter and that love makes her the person she is and then she is able to find a true love her father would be proud to see. Basically the actor who played the photogenic father in that photo he needs a raise!!

Unfortunately the main actress let the movie down. Her acting was immature and she was clearly overwhelmed and totally too self aware.

The 2 brothers did a great job keeping the movie interesting and they added some depth. And of course they are both a sight for sore eyes. The father also did well as the patriarch of the family.

The star of the movie is Aiden's daughter Samantha. She is a delight to watch and is clearly a natural born actress.

The story line is a bit thin which is why the quality of the acting had to be great to make it worth while.

Sadly the awkward nose-blowing sounds the main actress was constantly making was very off putting.

The only reason I could endure to the end was because of the 2 brothers. If not for them I would rate it a 5.

Personally, I really enjoyed watching this one. As a guy in his 60s, for whatever reason, this one was easy to watch for me. I found it not too cheesy, good, although simple, plot. The young girl was a hit, for sure. The characters were relatable. The lead actress could have been more energetic but I thought she did a great job. This movie is in the hallmark genre but I much prefer these that come from candlelight studios. The two brothers had some obvious conflict with one pulling their weight and being responsible and the younger one not so much but I liked how they resolved their conflict without things getting nasty and out of hand.

The film didn't make any impact, but it was watchable. This film follows the familiar ranch setting trope: a handsome man with a child whose mother is absent (in this case, she left). The title and poster give away the entire plot. Right from the start, it's clear the story going to revolve around a love triangle on the ranch between two men and a woman. The only surprise is that the men are brothers, but beyond that, the story adds nothing new. While the cinematography is good, capturing beautiful visuals, the storyline is too predictable, and the emotions fall flat for a film labeled as a romance.
