    Worst acting i think I've ever seen

    As a lover of these cheesy Christmas type movies I know not to set my standards too high but my goodness the acting in this is abysmal. I don't know if it's inexperienced actors, awful writing or a combination of the two but it has to be the same level as The Room. I'm the biggest soft ass and will cry at always any romantic film, this on the other hand made me cringe. The 'proposal' was just awful no emotion, I was more focused on the horse in the background chomping on hay. Yeah honestly don't waste your time with this one even if you have a couple hours to kill. If you wasn't awful acting watch The Room at least that is funny!

    Even the snow is low budget!

    This movie was by far one of the worst cheesey Christmas movies ever, from the acting, writing, music, hair cuts, and fake snow that blew in front of the camera during one scene. There were a few points in this show that seemed like they were trying to act poorly. What the heck was Gabe thinking to propose to Hope before they even dated?! That is just one of many plotlines that are beyond a bad hallmark movie. Whoever gave this movie a 10 was smoking something or apparently worked on site.

    Worse then most

    I admit I Ana Christmas romance movie junkie. I Watch them all and I know they have the same plot just in different settings. All very sappy but hey it's Christmas.

    This however was just bad Bad writing Bad acting Bad sound track The characters had no chemistry, interactions seemed strained. As silly as it may seem people don't talk like this!

    " Hi Hope!" "Hi Gabe" " what are you doing Hope?""I'm just getting the horses ready Gabe". " Ok Hope I have to go get a few things done." "Bye Gabe" "Bye Hope" Honestly the local high school productions are better.

    Very Memorable

    Absolutely abysmal. Acting, story, soundtrack, props, and camera work. All of which needed to be improved upon and feels like something I could've shot in school for a project than an actual movie available for streaming. It's very memorable and not in a way that is to its advantage. Definitely was not worth the time or even patience it took to get through this movie. The camera work is amateur. The lighting is neglected. The audio is lackluster. The script is quite boring and predictable with many, and I mean many, filler shots and time lapses to meet the time it shows. I'm actually blown away.

    Lowest low budget TV movie ever

    This came on while I was at nail salon getting a pedicure. I can't even believe this made it on tv. I am by no means a filmographer BUT seriously this looks like it was filmed on a hand held video recorder from Best Buy and the sets and props are ridiculous. I can't even hear the dialogue as the volume is off BUT OMG the acting is terrible from what I can see!!!
