Love on the Right Course

A decent story but anyone who has a moderate knowledge of the game would have been grimacing with most shown golf scenarios. Hiring an LPGA player to consult and correct a few swings, terms used, golf situations and tournament play would have made it a much better movie.

Obviously, Taylor-Made kicked in some sponsor money for the advertising they received. That being said, tour players would be wearing clothing with the company logo. Every shirt the club pro wore would have had the club logo embroidered on it.

Other than the golf related mishaps, it an OK Hallmark movie and worthy of a watch.

I've just watched Ashley Newbrough and Marcus Rosner in Flipping for Christmas and was greatly disappointed. So, I was hesitant to watch this movie, but decided to give them another chance, especially when I saw this one was set in Budapest. I have to say this one did not disappoint. I loved the scenery and found the acting and chemistry to be genuine. Ashley and Marcus are great together in this movie, their characters are fun and caring. I loved the dynamic between Whitney (Newbrough) and her father as they remember her mother who has passed. I loved all the supporting cast of family and friends, they helped make this movie enjoyable, even the dog. I really enjoyed seeing Brittany Bristow playing a competitor pro golfer. I rated this down by one star as Steve Byer who plays Whitney's caddy plays his usual character that is only looking out for himself. But I suppose there had to be some drama in the movie. All in all this was quite an enjoyable movie to watch.

The scenery is breathtaking and takes place in Budapest Hungary. The story is about a female tournament golfer trying to cope with the death of her mother and coach, and her father who is also is trying to cope with the death of his wife. Ashley Newbrough is great as the lead female golfer, Whitney who goes home to Budapest to prepare for a tournament and try to figure out whether to continue her golfing career, her father is deciding whether to sell the golf course he owns since it only brings memories back of his deceased wife. Whitney meets a handsome golf pro,Daniel, played by handsome actor, Marcus Rosner,who gives her a new perspective on her golf game and life. I enjoyed the chemistry between Whitney and Daniel, and wish there had been a bit more focus on the romance, but overall an enjoyable movie.

I would not call this a comedy as much as a light-hearted drama. As for the romance, this is one of those films where the romance feels tacked onto the ending.

That said, this Hallmark film has a cast that is likable. And some beautiful scenes from Hungary, which are a plus.

Trying to make this film about golf technically accurate was a challenge, but the scenes are convincing enough.

Ashley Newbrough plays the part of Whitney, the young golfer who has lost the spark in her game since her mother's death. When she visits her father, she finds that he has become reclusive and is thinking about selling their golf club. She is also getting negativity from her caddy.

Marcus Rosner plays Daniel, the club pro who offers to help her with her game. He finds himself becoming involved emotionally in Whitney's well-being.

I found this movie to be quite boring.

To be fair, though, part of that could be because I'm not a golf enthusiast. To be honest, I only watched it to the end because I have grown to love the actor, Marcus Rosner, & I enjoy taking in the scenery when the movies are made on location in Europe. But, my biggest pet peeve is when the background music doesn't go along with the movie. When they don't meld together, it's distracting to me & takes away from my enjoyment of the story. I hope Hallmark doesn't continue to take on a trait I have found in Great American Family movies. Hallmark can do much better than this.
