Romance in Style

Hallmark is finally making movies that bring a true connection with the characters and to the audience. This movie was enjoyable to watch, and the chemistry between the main two actors is sweet and romantic. I'm so glad Hallmark is trying new stories. They made this one into gold.

Great story. Actors are so natural. Such a honest story. Most of the cast is well cast. Great chemistry between the two leads. The writing and direction is great.

This had the makings of a great movie. I think the 9s and 10s previously given as ratings are from all of the overweight women. I say that as the size 16 woman that this movie is geared towards. While I do think the fashion industry caters to the Size 0s of the world and I love the idea of pushing the industry to actually change, I do not think it is any healthier to push obesity, which is what Size 16 is, in the name of "body positivity". Again, this comes from a woman who knows her Size 16 needs to be more like a Size 6. I love the leads from Grey's and Code Black and was excited to see them together. I didn't see the chemistry everyone talked about even though they are both great actors. The writers made it VERY difficult to like Ella. She was so rude and condescending to the guy she supposedly liked that I couldn't figure out why he'd ever want to be with her anyways. I had higher hopes given the actors, but this was a miss.

Juicy Elliot proves she is more than just the supporting character she plays on Grey's Anatomy. A sweet story that focuses more on the body positivity side than it does the romance. It's a sweet and refreshing modern take on Cinderella and honestly, it took me a while to catch on to that. The ending wrapped up a tad confusing but overall this is worth the watch.

This was a really powerful and positive and realistic story. The 2 leads were so good together. Jaicy Elliot proved herself on Grey's Anatomy and this took her to an even higher level. She's so much fun to watch and was the perfect choice for this role. Important message presented in a positive way - nothing gets in her way for long. ( obviously Hallmark had to have the "misunderstanding " between the leads at the end because it's what they do). Benjamin Hollingsworth was a sweet foil for her despite his "eligible bachelor" role. This is a keeper I'll re-watch. Don't see many of those anymore. Substance. Yes!
