Autumn at Apple Hill

We have watched a lot of romcoms since the pandemic, and although this particular movie followed the typical checklist, it had a certain appeal that was lacking in many others. We particularly liked the secondary romance in the background, as well as the great performances by the lead actress and actor.

Initially, we thought that the rich guy coming to the rescue for the Inn keeper would be the winning formula. What was different about this movie however, was surprising - the rich guy did something different.

They of course, still fell in love. And of course, everything worked out in the end.

The small town Inn in this Hallmark Rom Com is lovely and filled with charm and character until they put an ugly arcade game right in the middle of the lobby! Do young people really want to stay at a place like that? And are they so vindictive that they would try to turn away a paying customer to their struggling business?

I was bothered by these and other things in the film. I understand that they had to manufacture some animosity between the two at the beginning...but it seemed really artificial and forced.

On the flip side, the romance and chemistry between the two leads seemed genuine which will appeal to romantics and the overall fall setting with a Halloween party was delightful. I can't believe that any bank in the world would give her a loan after she failed to meet her financial goals just strictly based on a happy photo of their grandkids?!?!? Said no banker on the planet.

The two leads are lovely and the setting is fall-tastic. Those are the reasons to watch it if you are a Hallmark movie fan. Be prepared to overlook annoying and unrealistic bits of the storyline. And why did she have to divorce or be a divorcee?

It was a Beautiful experience watching this Movie. The Story was Awesome and the execution was Marvelous. The chemistry between Wes Brown and Erin Cahill is very much appreciable. The Movie gives a message to the audience that we have to try impossible things to succeed in an adverse situation. The Movie is 100% recommendable for the Family audience who are the supporters of the traditional western culture. On watching the Movie suddenly I remembered watching a Hallmark Movie 2 to 3 years back when the movies where really predictable but they defended the traditions and values which are missing in some of the recent Hallmark Movies.

Wow! Hallmark has done it again Erin Cahill and Wes Brown are the two best actors Hallmark has. Their chemistry is amazing and both actors do a terrific job. This Romcom has to be one of the best ever. The plot is diff than the boring one Hallmark puts out and the support cast is very good. I love the mother of Wes. Def shoots be in more movies. I can't wait for the next time these two actors to do another romcom. Why can't all Hallmark movies be this good. The list of other HM actors are all quite good The story lines have to be done better like this one. All in all one of the best ones for this season.

Cast decisions make or break Hallmark movies. They can elevate movies that we've seen, in different settings and versions, many times before, which is exactly what happened with "Autumn at Apple Hill".

The storyline is an old trope - inn needs saving, in comes some workaholic hotshot from the city, the two leads fall in love and save the inn - but Wes Brown and Erin Cahill make it better. They are some of Hallmark's best. Can't remember ever seeing a bad film from either of them, which is saying something considering their extensive catalogues. With less competent actors, this is a slog.

Good acting, a decent script (even though the story is a retread of a retread of a retread!), spectacular fall-tinged establishing shots. A good start to Hallmark's fall/Halloween slate of films.
