Snapshot of Love

Reel One Entertainment just loves to pull from Hallmark where they take their tropes and use for their own. It's the old where a small town gal falls in love in big shot from a big city. I don't understand why they make these plots so predictable where you can know who will fall in love and you know the character will hate the guy then started to love him eventually. The actors and actress do a pretty good job with the predictable plot and setting is quite good so I'll give them that but overall it's a predictable plot with an ending you know it will happen. If you love cheesy romantic comedy then this for you.

I loved it but honestly i feel like we have been robbed on the ending. Yes we can be in suspense but i feel like the plot switched and went on fast forward. I think you lost track of the purpose of the movie and focused on fun. The acting of some characters is very poor and giving "I am just acting" vibes.

I need a rematch with the movie on a redo, remake and re acted, with a better ending and more open on our suspense. Its a romantic movie not a romntic suspense film. We cant be left with question marks. I need details on wlhat happens next. Even in the climax of the movie, you guys jumped the plot.

A sweet and gentle film, visually gorgeous settings, locations, interiors and clothes.

But a warning on the music: viewers will hear and see the famous and much-loved minuet from Boccherini's string quintet (Opus 11 No.5), apparently miraculously performed by just four players instead of the necessary five, both at rehearsal and in performance. (This is the unspoken joke for the audience in the old movie The Ladykillers, where neither the incompetent criminals nor their adorable landlady realise that they are rehearsing a quintet upstairs having brought in only four instruments).

Back to this movie: next, a second violin and a viola can also apparently share a desk and sheet-music, despite their music being written in different clefs.

Thirdly, all of them - still only four players - can apparently read their string quintet music from a printed sheet of piano music.

And at the end, I'm still left wondering where that second cello needed for the quintet has disappeared to...

Apart from these hilarious musical howlers, it's a delightful film.

I love a good romance and when I saw this one I thought 1. It has a number of great actors 2. The plot is good 3. Of course with any hallmark movie we all know it has a happy ending but that is what I am looking for when I watch a movie like this, I like for my mind to be taken away from reality and into a story that is written well, acted well and produced well and that is what I found with this movie and the scenery was gorgeous as well. I liked the fact that there wasn't just one main romantic couple in this movie and of course there is also a little bit of drama that of course it rectified!

The network I watched this on and the production company that produced it can both be hot and cold, so when I chose between two Saturday night rom/coms, the Hallmark movie won. And it had one of the worst premises I have ever seen so I was done in 15 minutes and switched to my recording of this movie.

The story is fairly common where it revolves around the week before a wedding with some leisure and some planning. Shane is a huge movie star. Jessie was once a top photographer but left the rat race behind with a vengeance. She has some aspects of her personality that are borderline irresponsible. She might be mistaken for a slacker, but she keeps coming through.

I'm not a fan of when the leads meet and one or both tears into the other. This movie had a brief moment where the big movie star said leave me alone, but they quickly cleared up the misunderstanding. I liked it.

The conflict is done a little differently than you might expect in a couple of different ways. And unlike a lot of rom/coms that blow something totally out of proportion, in this movie it makes sense why one of them is so upset. In this genre you know there has to be a reconciliation, but this obstacle was almost too much to overcome.

Natalie Dreyfuss and Anthony Konechny have good chemistry. A lot of screen time early is spent with them getting to know each other. The banter is good.

BTW - this movie gets a D-, almost an F, in my pet peeve, size of text messages.
