A Feeling of Home

The reason I gave a 5 star ranking was that I was laughing through out. I am amazed anyone involved thought this was a serious attempt to portray ranch life in Texas. The performing ranch chores was hysterical. Clearly there wasn't a single person every involved in this movie who has ever stepped foot on a working ranch. When Abby drove the garden tractor around the field to the delight of her father, i almost fell off my chair laughing. The yellow rose booth at the fair, the backdrop for the Texas internet broadcast seem to magically appear. I would not be surprised if anyone involved with this movie would quickly sue to get their name removed from the credits. It may well have been a career threatening decision to associate one's self with this production. Yikes!

No disrespect to the actors, but this movie was terrible! The actors were unauthentic and slow, the acting was just painfully slow. It took me three days to actually watch. I never could get into it. I hated the storyline! This was not Hallmark quality!

So this young woman was raised on a farm? Now I wasn't raised on a farm, but, I did live in Texas and I knew enough not to dress like she did to work on the farm. Also, why did her father need her to be there? There were lots of men already working there! Stupid! I can usually sit through most Hallmark movies, not this. Please Hallmark your shows are so freaking predictable. Change something!

Jonna Walsh is seriously miscast as a Texas girl. Her So-Cal accent is jarring and seriously mars my enjoyment of this movie. Not one of Hallmark's better movies due to the flawed premise and the miscast female lead.

Read an unusual amount or severely negative reviews of this movie. This movie is no better or worse than an other Hallmark movie with this well worn plot line. Reading the reviews before watching the movie, (I had paused it to check out some of the actors), I was tempted to delete the film, they were so extremely negative. It followed the same script all these small town/big city movies use. Either you like them or you don't. Such extreme vitriol, I think was unwarranted.
