    Cringe

    I've watched many of these cutesy rom coms. They are better than the news. God bless her, the lead actress (Stephanie Cleough)is probably the worst actress I have ever seen. Constant, contorted facial expressions are annoying and distracting. She had this valley girl, phony, sing songy, breathy voice all while raising her eyebrows and contorting her mouth in to shapes that are hard to watch. Nobody talks like that. The lead actor was fine, but there was no chemistry. How could anybody have chemistry with her? How could anybody have given her the role? I couldn't watch after 20 minutes. It was that bad. Ive seen better acting in community theater.

    Nice change from typical romance movies

    I almost didn't watch this because of the other review that was so negative. But I thought the leads had great chemistry and the story line was not your typical romcom movie plot (although I like them) so I found it refreshing. It was a nice change of pace for a Monday night. And yes, maybe the setting was not actually Portland (since when is that something that matters. So many movies are filmed in other places. That grumpy reviewer needs to get over that need for accuracy because it's not gonna happen on the budgets that movies have these days), but the scenery was lovely and makes me want to go visit Kelowna again!

    Typical rom

    Nothing special....if you enjoy romantic paint by the numbers rom movies you'll have no problem watching this and enjoying it but holy smokes what's with the lead actress and her facial expressions throughout the movie, it's like a bad SNL skit. At first I thought it was just me but then I read another review who pointed it out as well and I knew i wasn't alone.

    Overall the chemistry between the leads isn't anything special but it wasn't your typical boy meets girl, girl falls for boy...blah blah blah It was a bit of a slow burn but again that's why I called it a typical paint by the numbers rom.

    Mediocre

    Another mediocre Reel One Entertainment TV movie. You get a lot of stock footage, bad cuts, bad makeups, no chemistry between main leads, barely any romance, unlikeable main character, very weak screenplay (the movie premise is moronic) and the fake location, but I guess Kelowna can somehow pass as Portland.

    The only good thing is that you can watch the whole movie compressed in 2:26 min long trailer because somebody in charge at ROE thinks that trailer should show whole movie. The vast majority of their TV movies have trailer = whole movie which is bad on so many levels, but in this case it's a plus as it's save valuable free time.

    Run! Save yourself!

    David Paetkau is relaxed, his character is likable, and he did the best he could with the horrible, horrible writing but he alone cannot save this beyond-terrible movie. The acting by Stephanie Cleogh can't even be called "acting," as far as I'm concerned. Watching her overact and trying so hard to come across as kittenish and sexy and cute was just nauseating. I wanted to poke my own eyes out! Unless you are a glutton for punishment, please just save yourself the two hours you'll never, ever get back and go and get your nether regions waxed. Trust me, it'll be MUCH less painful than this mess!
