Love on Trend

Love on Trend 2021 - Nicholas Humphries.

Youthful, aspiring fashion designer Allie (Jocelyn Panton) meetcutes dashing tech guy Colin (Giles Panton) and tumultuously, her lofty career aspirations, and love palpitations coloufully intertwine as they discover they are tailor made for one other! Sadly, my terminal lack of interest in fashion remains wholly unmoved by Love on Trend, but Allie's amiable boss/chum Kendra (Amanda Wong)is a propah sweetie, and, unlike cold reality, in fuzzy Hallmarkland all of life's travails are amicably resolved in a suitably cutsey fashion. Real life married couple have a likeable screen chemistry, and their fictitious personas exude a palpable warmth.

That was the Described Video you heard. Don't know why CityTv forced it on all of us fans of cheeseball cinema. You didn't enjoy knowing when someone looked at their coffee cup?

This movie felt like an amateur production from the beginning. Jocelyn Panton lacked polish. Some of the acting and much of the dialogue was just off.

Giles Panton was OK. I'm surprised that this real life married couple didn't come off better.

The premise is a slight twist on impersonating the successful or famous boss. In this case, who in the world thought this would end well?

I thought Colin was a little too emphatic about saving jobs in Cassidy's company.

There's a secondary romance with Kendra and Arturo.

The conflict caught me by surprise. It's almost worth sticking with it that long. It gets a bit complicated.

This one sure feels like a hallmark movie. Very cute couple is forced to work together for some strange work assignment, or high school reunion. Awkward at first, but they usually work out for the best. So much dramatic music, with so many lines that didn't warrant it. When a fashion designer disappears, allie fills in. Except the higher ups think she is the one they hired to do the work. So many lies... it's all going to blow up down the line for sure. And of course the two leads seem to be attracted to each other, but there has to be a huge misunderstanding, like on three's company. But they stole a line from will and grace: colin says "i could eat an entire meal just out of appetizers." one demerit. It's pretty soapy sudsy, with the romantic flourishes playing underneath for most of the film. Pretty slow and simple story. Gotta give this one just an Okay. Directed by nicholas humphries written by joelle sellner.

This movie is quite original, but some cast members' lines became too quiet / unclear at times, so I tuned out on multiple scenes. I wish Reel One Entertainment and others would make more movies about over 40s as it would allow for a wider range of storylines, and viewers will grow out of these early career settings too quickly - I'm not gonna buy them because they don't have much rewatchability / longevity. The characters in this movie aren't particularly inspiring - but I do empathise a bit as they're just trying to make the best of a chaotic world like many of us. Not the best, but not the worst of the genre.
