Colors of Love

The acting was absolutely terrible, even for a movie such as this. A supermodel looking librarian, (by the way to all the librarians out there it's not personal, but how many of you wear designer clothes and own a car that is most likely more than your income in a year?) Hollow and tone deaf to me, even for the genre. Thumbs down.

I watch a lot of these movies and, yes, they're very much one like the other, but that's part of their charm.

However, what is it casting directors see in Jessica Lowndes that I'm not seeing?

She's so stilted every single time she delivers her lines and is so flat and emotionless. She delivers her lines, most of the time, as though she's remembering them as she goes along, as though someone is feeding her the lines via an ear piece.

I've seen actors in high school plays deliver lines better than Jessica Lowndes.

Hobby lobby called. They asked who stole all of their fake foliage and fall decor. Like for real. Every item in the warehouse is stuffed in this movie. We enjoyed making fun of the fall decorations throughout. Plus Chad Michael Murray was a bonus of course. I was wanting to watch a movie set in the fall - and if you are as well then I'd recommend. You can definitely tell it's autumnal by the approximately 100 fall decorations scattered around every single scene. Overall it's cute and we enjoyed it! A cute romance story with mild cringe. I'd say it's above average. It is somewhat unpredictable at times which is rare for this type of move.

Ah well ... sometimes I myself do not know why I watch the movies I watch. I think that makes sense ... right? Anyway, this isn't a bad movie by any means - it is full of cliches though. But when you have Jessica Lowndes starring does it really matter? Not to knock any of the other actors (doing a good job considering the source material they are working with), but she is quite fine.

Depending on your liking you may feel the same about the male leads in this. Beautiful people all around and a story that is as predictable as they get. With added drama at certain times to up the stakes. But the outcome is inevitable ... by the way is this a hallmark movie as they say? I think it would make sense if it was - from what I've heard of them ... anyway, you know what you're getting (literally) ... so decide for yourself if this is ... "tasty" enough for you.

Welp, I'm ending my restful long weekend of doing basically nothing but watching movies and napping on a very low note with this one. This movie has about as much substance as a talking rock. Okay, it's an attempt at a romcom, I totally get it, but it is so Hollywood abnormally unrealistic that I barely got through it, in fact I think I made tea three times. I don't like being harsh, but it's just not good. The story is super predictable and very child like, not even teenage level. I can't really explain it and I think I now have to find one more movie to watch just to negate this one. I really would not waste your time with this, I'm sorry to say.
