Romance in Style

This was a really powerful and positive and realistic story. The 2 leads were so good together. Jaicy Elliot proved herself on Grey's Anatomy and this took her to an even higher level. She's so much fun to watch and was the perfect choice for this role. Important message presented in a positive way - nothing gets in her way for long. ( obviously Hallmark had to have the "misunderstanding " between the leads at the end because it's what they do). Benjamin Hollingsworth was a sweet foil for her despite his "eligible bachelor" role. This is a keeper I'll re-watch. Don't see many of those anymore. Substance. Yes!

This was wonderful, ground-breaking, important, needed... and both thrilling and difficult for me to watch, personally.

It could've gone so wrong... and mostly I wish there was either some kind of redemption or kock-back to the antagonists that made everything so difficult along the whole way. That bit stayed dangling for me, then again that is fairy realistic.

The chemistry between the leads, the sass and truth sprouted by the heroine, the history she shared, and the sheer audacity some have trying to quash any sort of true representation in fashion.., it was all very relatable.

Great message, and an important one. One of the best movies Hallmark has put out in quite some time. A believable pairing with real chemistry between the leads. I really wish writers would aim to get away from including somewhat awkward dance scenes as filler in every film, this one included. Also, the ending felt a bit contrived, especially with the naysayers suddenly seeing the light, but all in all, very enjoyable.

Instead of a typical, stale plot, this movie made statements without preaching, and the romance was secondary. The chemistry between the leads was not forced or cringeworthy, but easy and believable. The lead actors were so natural and really likable that the story was a pleasure to watch. The movie flowed beautifully and I sincerely hope Hallmark makes more of these types of movies.

This had the makings of a great movie. I think the 9s and 10s previously given as ratings are from all of the overweight women. I say that as the size 16 woman that this movie is geared towards. While I do think the fashion industry caters to the Size 0s of the world and I love the idea of pushing the industry to actually change, I do not think it is any healthier to push obesity, which is what Size 16 is, in the name of "body positivity". Again, this comes from a woman who knows her Size 16 needs to be more like a Size 6. I love the leads from Grey's and Code Black and was excited to see them together. I didn't see the chemistry everyone talked about even though they are both great actors. The writers made it VERY difficult to like Ella. She was so rude and condescending to the guy she supposedly liked that I couldn't figure out why he'd ever want to be with her anyways. I had higher hopes given the actors, but this was a miss.
