Raise a Glass to Love

What a great and beautiful movie.

Moving storyline, gorgeous Laura Osnes and breathtakingly beautiful Juan Pablo Di Pace - their chemistry is wow.

Hallmark thank you !

Please we need a second movie, and a third...

Really enjoyed the movie. Cute story, attractive leads. The sommelier was Master Sommelier Jennifer Huether, who appeared in her first movie role as herself. Obvious she wasn't an actor, but very cool to see her. Learned a lot about wine!

Hmmm, so the Hallmark Winery will definitely come into play, here. I wonder how many orders were received since this aired!? Lol.

Yet another Hallmark movie where one of the leads ditches their partner for someone else they've been flirting with. Not a lot of loyalty in these movies lately.

This is a calm movie with nice scenery and is worth a view so long as you have moderate expectations. The lead actors did a good job and were likeable.

Will admit to not being particularly crazy on the 2021 Fall Harvest Hallmark films. There have been some good Fall Harvest films over the years from Hallmark, but this has got to be the only year where nearly all of them did little for me somehow. Have said more than once about 2021 being inconsistent for Hallmark, but was still pleasantly surprised at how better than anticipated it was. Was expecting it to be a terrible year somehow, but there were some very good films still.

'Raise a Glass to Love' is one of those very good films, not high art but it succeeds very well at its aims (namely light hearted, inoffensive entertainment) and is very well done when taking it for what it is. This reviewer also takes back what was said regarding 'Love Strikes Twice' being the only 2021 Fall Harvest film worth watching elsewhere, 'Raise a Glass to Love' after watching is every bit as good and just loses that slight edge due to it not being as creative as that film.

It's not quite flawless. It does start off a little on the slow side.

Did think too that the ending was a bit too neat, which is not an uncommon problem for Hallmark and one of the biggest recurring problems in the 2021 batch.

However, it is a very attractively photographed film with lovely scenery. Also pleasant is the music, which has presence without coming over as over-bearing or too constant. The direction shows a good deal of confidence and a sense that they knew what they were doing and trying to achieve. The script flows well and is light hearted and nostalgic, shining particularly in the hilarious and affectionate past references and the lead banter.

The story has a lot of heart and charm, and has a nice liveliness too. Really appreciated that the conflicts were a lot more relatable and true to life than most Hallmark films, with the final decision being a lot more buyable than most Hallmark films from 2021. Laura Osnes is immensely charming and has a lot of sparkling personality. She is matched very well by Juan Pablo Di Pace and they have an endearing and natural chemistry together. The supporting cast are solid and the characters worth caring for.

On the whole, very nicely done. 8/10.

I really like Laura Osnes in her most her movies. She has great energy and usually makes people around her better. In this movie I preferred her costar as I think he never over acted and stayed within himself. Going in i thought they put her with someone who after that not great prince Christmas movie she had no chemistry and had to carry. In this movie there was some chemistry and she didn't carry him. She is a very good actress, and I would like to see her get her own mystery series but she needs more effort to create storyline to make it work. It's a shame.she was perfect in a Homecoming for the Holidays. I am sure there is pressure at hallmark to take jobs they do Yager with , and 5hiswasnt one of them just wished she was better than her costar. She has always carried these movies.
