Alexa PenaVega and Luke Macfarlane in Taking a Shot at Love (2021)

Review by TxMike

Taking a Shot at Love

Nice Hallmark movie, a hockey and ballet theme, we enjoyed it more than most of them.

He is a star hockey player for the New York Rangers. He gets a high ankle sprain that isn't healing as fast as they think it should. So he is sent to their minor league team for rehab.

Meanwhile his manager has a cousin, a former featured ballerina, who now teaches ballet in Avon, Connecticut. She had a similar high ankle sprain and used ballet exercises to recuperate so she is asked to help "Coop." At first she is reluctant but money is tight, rent is going up, and she needs the fee. And he will stay in her guest house, a loft apartment over the detached garage.

As a Hallmark movie would have it, the hockey player and the ballet instructor find more than rehabilitation to share. The "Hallmark Kiss" comes at about 45 seconds before the movie is over.

We watch Hallmark movies for pleasant entertainment and this one fits the bill. We enjoyed this one a bit more than the usual Hallmark movie. At home streaming on Peacock.
