Amor y Sunshine

A military , a dog, a young woman and a decent story, meritous more for the end.

The only sin - the impression about hard effort of Danica McKellar to propose fair traits to her character .

The good point - the dog, off course and, in same measure, the science of Mark Deklan to

A military, a dog, a young woman. The predictable romance.

After so many Hallmark romances, nothing new or real bad. The end can be the good gift for viewer .

Only problem - Danica McKellar seems be not very comfortable in her role.

The good point, no doubts, the dog and the fine manner to explore his character of Mark Deklin.

The chemistry between the main characters were great. Ive seen most of the movies that Danica is in and this is by far the best one.

The owner of a nursery (Danica McKellar) is fostering a dog named Sunshine, whose owner (Mark Deklin) is deployed in the Middle East. At the end of his tour, he comes home and makes arrangements to pick up Sunshine.

Each of them is smarting from a being dumped by their last significant other, and both are dealing with ambivalent emotions because of their break-ups. But they have one thing in common--a love of Sunshine. This is a good setup for two genuinely nice people whose paths intersect. And the two lead actors have an affable chemistry.

This is an enjoyable Hallmark romance that unfolds naturally and allows the characters to establish an authentic-feeling relationship, not relying only on clever lines or mysterious coincidences.

Danica McKellar and Mark Deklin are a perfect casting match And bring the story to life through authentic top notch acting. Kudos to Hallmark for showing a positive role models for military service people and smart independent women business owners. I like movies where adults are shown as reasonable people vs. always off the deep end. Even the protagonist in the movie comes to his senses which I liked. Good story and a highly recommended watch for a nice date night.

Let me tell you a secret...I've seen this three times already. I just love this movie so much. Of course, I love the retired service dog named SUNSHINE. She's simply one of the best dog actors there is, and she is the reason these two people met.

**********

I'm a military brat so I kind of know some of the things here, and the other reviewer is right, the insignia is correct, but suddenly an Air Force bus fetches him...I know there are Army planes too, but maybe they were in US Air Force territory/hangar. It could happen. The USAF protect the bases, and they seldom get deployed, so maybe a few of them are called to serve along with the Army soldiers. Well, enough of that. I may know a little, but I don't know everything, so maybe I should leave things be.

The important thing about this movie is the beautiful story, and the chemistry between DANICA and MARK as Ally and Jake is the tops.

I know they are not real life sweethearts. Mark is happily married to Jamie, they have two kids together, and they have dogs.

Danica was divorced once, and has one child named Draco. She has been married to Scott for almost five years now.

Watching the two together is like magic. They made me believe that they have an instant romantic connection. The feeling's just so wonderful.

Oh, there was a reviewer who complained because of Mark's real age, he's too old to be Bess Armstrong's son. Why can't we get that she is playing a role? That she is not playing Bess Armstrong. She's Margo Terry. For all we know she could be a very young looking mother.

I, by the way, love the Margo Terry quotes uttered by BESS ARMSTRONG. Please listen to them.

I also like the supporting cast most especially: Toby Levins(Sam), Christine Chatelain(Emma), Vera Frederickson(cutie Lena Terry), Brenda Crichlow(Trisha Collins), Daniel Bacon(Denver Collins), April Telek(Donna), Jessie Fraser(Barb Terry) and Whoever played Lena's brother.

Oh, and you're going to love that the kisses are uninterrupted.

Well, I guess that's it.

I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, so I hope you would enjoy it like I still do.
