A Harvest Homecoming

Love Jessica Lowndes and Trevor Donovan. On the positive side, the movie storyline was great and so was the supporting cast. On the negative side, Trevor Donovan, while one of my favorite actors, does not have a pleasant singling voice , It was painful to hear him sing. Unfortunately, they did not use Jessica Lowndes to sing as her voice is wonderful.

Overall, the movie was beautiful. Really loved the supporting cast. The grandfather was a hoot. The parents demonstrated a loving, long lasting relationship. The sister was memorable. Enjoyed the minor God references. The scenery was beautiful.

Highly recommend.

I have never been so distracted by a movie set's decor as with this movie. The movie was actually.good, but all I kept saying was, who in the world was.the set Director.

Not sure how to gently put it, but it was so gawdy, it took away from the movie...so.glad I was not.the only.one distracted.by the horrible.sets.

There were.leaves and.lights in the Living room, bedroom, the new apartment, front.of.the house, side of the house, festival, everywhere. It made it look like a low budget movie. The set Director just said, I'll buy all these leaves in bulk and use it all Through the movie.

You should.re.do it.

The best way to watch this movie is on an old black and white tv so you don't get a two hour overdose of orange. From the start there was too much autumn decorating inside and outside The fast forward button helps get through this very routine movie which has the low point at the proper time. From there is has the things working out for the happy ending in the usual last few minutes. The use of the mute button can help get through the music and very fake dancing. The whole fishing pond scene looked like a picture background on a stage set. With nothing moving in the background of the fishing scene it looked like they turned on a fan to make the close plants move a little to end the scene. This is one to write down the title for the don't watch again note book. . .

This movie would make Christopher Walken happy so long as you replace the cowbell with fall decor. I'm all for setting up a nice movie set that makes you wish you were somewhere where you can actually wear sweaters in the fall, but this was definitely overkill. They even had the actors wearing fall colored clothing...good grief! They also must have filmed this in summer because everything was fake. The leaves, the one pumpkin... I'm guessing the apples too. Didn't see a single apple tree at the apple orchard either. Geez, can you imagine if you had to inventory all of the set props? Yikes! You'd be there for months counting all of the fake leaves!

The movie itself was comical and cute. Didn't really expect much from a Hallmark style movie. Though it was pretty hard to stay focused with the fall vomit everywhere.

I might watch it again, probably to turn it into a game of guessing where there aren't any leaves.

Alright, so I had a little free time and decided to watch "A Harvest Homecoming" with Trevor Donovan in the lead. Here's my take on it. The plot's not reinventing the wheel here. We've got a small-town setting, where people are as close-knit as the stitches on a handmade quilt. The story revolves around the annual harvest festival, which is facing potential cancellation. Enter Trevor Donovan's character, who's back in town after a long time, with memories and old feelings resurfacing. You probably know where this is going - there's some light drama, bits of romance, and the challenge of saving the festival. Familiar? Sure. Comfortable? Absolutely. If you're looking for a cozy, easy watch that'll leave you with a smile on your face, then go for it. It's the sort of movie that feels like a warm hug on a cold day. Trevor Donovan does a commendable job, the setting is delightful, and the story, though predictable, is heartfelt.
