Amore alla moda

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.

The movie was kinda cute, but I found the narrative that kept up from the beginning all the way to the end extremely frustrating.

I kept pausing the movie trying to figure out how to turn it off.

I got so aggravated that I almost deleted the movie entirely from my tivo.

Then I found this review page and decided to take my frustrations out here.

I definitely did not enjoy someone telling me exactly what I was looking at.

I have no problem with my eyes which is why I wanted to WATCH a movie and not listen to it. Totally distracted from the movie like someone making too much noise in a theater and everyone shushing them.

What is with the narrative explaining everything that is happening? Did you think as an audience we aren't smart enough to follow the story. Very annoying and so not necessary.

This is a Hallmark movie, so I expect the light vibe. I don't mind at all. But sadly, since the story is about fashion industry, I really hope they take the theme and setting seriously... which they don't. Since the blah sweatpants show up, I know it's gonna be a disaster. And my my, I hate when I'm right. Why can't they contact a fashion designer or a stylist for this movie? So we can have a proper fashion for this. Instead, I have to see ugly stuff parading here and there. And not even an edgy style. Just Amazon-bought stuff that makes me hate this movie even more. I regret watching this. Sorry~
