Beauty and the Billionaire

What do you need for a good Hallmark-Style Rom-Com. You need a male lead and a female lead that are engaging and have some chemistry. Check. You need a plot that, even if it follows a predictable pattern, has a few quirks and twists that make it interesting. Check. You need a fun background for the action to take place. Check. You need good dialogue with a little wit. Check. Most Rom-Coms in one way or another follow a Jane Austen book. This movie is no exception. We've got Pride and Prejudice here with an arrogant billionaire learning some life-lessons and falling in love with a spunky female who's not afraid to stand up to him. It's really nicely done from the beginning to the concluding kiss you know is coming but it's not about the kiss, it's about the journey and this is a fun one.

I'll start off by saying over all I really like this one. Sure it's a bit low budget at times as far as maybe dialogue and some acting, but even with that I've enjoyed it enough to watch it multiple times. I wouldn't even recommend a different cast. I think everyone it it was pretty good though they could stand to hone their skills a bit to make the acting more natural and less one dimensional. Tanner Gillman as far as acting chops led the film even if his role was secondary. He knows how to make it seem natural and real. The leads did pretty well too but have a little room for improvement though there were times they too carried their parts well.

You could tell the business speak was rather generic but it did better than other movies I've seen in the same genre.

Like I said, it's not major ratings worthy but I still enjoy it. I hope Tanner Gillman gets more opportunities to show how he can carry a role naturally.

I gave it a 9 because what it lacked in polished dialogue and acting it made up for in production quality.

I enjoyed general storyline but had a feeling from every moment the actors play is artificial. I don't know what it is about - the pauses where they respond before they had a time to consume the information, maybe facial expressions that do not match what is said or feeling they are trying to remember the lines, mismatching connections between the shots or the combination of all above. Even internals of a jet look artificial. Could have been just my perception but there are only handful of movies that I had that feeling about.

Overall - ok to watch once but is not looking to be re-watching. Just ok overall.

I enjoyed watching this movie. I liked the lead female character, Addison, and how she is portrayed by Sashleigha Hightower. Chris Reid as Justin was believable in his role. As usual...the relationship starts off rocky but the difference in this story is that you could see when and why these two started and did develop romantic feelings for each other. Typically, in these romance movies I never understand how or why the leads fall in love.

The journey from dislike to like to love was engaging and we see and feel the transition.

Even Addison as brother Pete, played by Tanner Gillman made a progressive change as well. I was on the fence at first with his character who wad really just a vehicle to introduce/involve the sister in the story.

Overall, I recommend watching. Not sure if I would watch it again but I did enjoy it.

This movie was ok. I thought the actors did a good enough job. I liked the storyline. Sure there were some inconsistencies but overall it kept my interest.

The relationships depicted were ok. I found the dynamic between the leads worked well. It reminded me of the romance stories I used to read which I don't have the time for anymore.

In any case I always appreciate movies that are filmed in nice locations. This one met my expectations in that regard.

It was the usual ending. I think overall it met my expectations. I could watch it again, if it comes again, months from now or next year. I did not save it.
