Sailing Into Love

Really liked this Hallmark movie. I am so happy Hallmark didn't go all predictable as they usually do. Glad they decided not to let him or her hear or see something that is not real and then lose the other person because of their assumptions; this is usually the boring direction of most Hallmark movie.

About Hallmark movies, the word nice seems, almost always, the fair one. In this case it is not. Not for acting, not for cliches, not for predactibility. But for too many weddings, for supporting actors and landscape as only reasonable pillars , for something used again and again who, after a not short experience across Hallmark products, seems good for nap .

Yes, I admitt, maybe it is my fault. A middle age old man can resist less to the waves of romance and very simple stories in which is clear from the first scene. And I admitt, Chris McNally is more than hadsome in uniform and Leah Renee is far to be bad as biology teacher. But the only good point, for me, can be only ...the lighthouse. Real, real beautiful the trip of main characters in its rooms.

So , Hallmark.

I would have liked to see less environmental protest and more time between the leads. Still, they managed to spend some quality time dancing away from one another and then closer again.

I didn't care for so many reviews rudely criticizing Leah Renee especially for her voice. It is unfortunate that Renee would be perfectly type-cast for a much less flattering role. Her natural tendencies make it hard to give her the respect she deserves. She made a good effort to carry off her role as an intelligent, sensible young lady, but admittedly it was with mixed results. She does portray a very sweet, sensitive and caring woman. And I think she connects with Chris McNally. McNally was solid throughout.

It's also unfortunate that the plot was a bit simplistic and predictable. Still, if you aren't turned off by an actress's voice, it was a nice romance story.

I liked the final sequence.

It's not the deepest story I've viewed on the channel but these movies aren't always about the deep story lines. They are always about falling in love. The ups and downs and everything in between. Its a very nice love story with beautiful scenery along the way. Watch the hallmark movies for what they're worth and enjoy the ride.

Sweet movie with beautiful people and scenery. It's hallmark, just relax and enjoy.
