This is not a romantic comedy. It's just romantic! It's a delightfully sweet and nuanced love story with a lot of truth to it.
It might be a bit sugarcoated and very low budget but that does not make it less inspiring.
I really liked the depiction of a developing relationship of two people who weren't "planning to fall in love".
Indeed these two were not falling in love like teenagers and going crazy. They were slowly becoming more fond of each other until they realized that it was actually true love.
The two leads could be a bit more passionate about it and I'd like to have seen at least a few real street scenes as it allegedly played in Chicago - my favorite city in the US - but you can't have it all I guess.

Wonderful script strategically directed by Brian Robert's with no wasted dialogue. Camilla Belle is the mature version of Dakota Johnson with a depth that captures the interest of young and old. We need more of her. This film is far beyond streaming and well worth your time.
Let me start this review by saying Im a huge Camilla Belle fan, have been for years, and I think she is absolutely gorgeous. However this movie is very bland. Camilla Belle has always played it safe in her movie choices and this film is no exception. She is basically playing herself, a kindhearted 30 something woman with an American father and Brazilian mother. The plot is predictable and the acting is lackluster, the two leads have no chemistry whatsoever. Also Camilla got an unfortunate haircut recently so she had to wear a party city wig for this movie. The production couldnt afford a decent wig?
Frankly, I have never seen any work of Camila Belle. This was my first time as her other work has been out of my movie/tv preferences. She is an outstanding actress. David Lafontaine I have seen in supporting roles so it was great to see him in a lead role! Both did an outstanding job in this cute and funny story about love and romance. I watched this on Great American Family under a different title. Outstanding choice to bring on GAFamily! So grateful for people like Bill Abbott who are supporting clean, funny and refreshing movies. The supporting cast were excellent as well so kuddos to them. Loved the sets and costumes as well. THANK YOU EVERYONE!!
Didn't know any of the actors, but I was surprised at just how well they did. The story line was upbeat and entertaining. We all know where the movie is going but still sometimes we want to walk away from a movie feeling better, not dragged down. So, if you want a simple, pleasant, cute love story then this will fit the bill.
