Romance on the Ranch

The film didn't make any impact, but it was watchable. This film follows the familiar ranch setting trope: a handsome man with a child whose mother is absent (in this case, she left). The title and poster give away the entire plot. Right from the start, it's clear the story going to revolve around a love triangle on the ranch between two men and a woman. The only surprise is that the men are brothers, but beyond that, the story adds nothing new. While the cinematography is good, capturing beautiful visuals, the storyline is too predictable, and the emotions fall flat for a film labeled as a romance.

This was such a pleasant surprise! The acting is a little uneven in spots, but the story and two love interests keep it engaging from start to finish. The horseback riding scenes are real, which adds so much authenticity. The scenery is gorgeous, the relationships are healthy (no constant bickering), and the dad character is a genuinely great role model. It's refreshing to watch something that feels wholesome without being dull. If you love ranch life, family values, and gentle romance with heart, Romance on the Ranch is worth the watch.

This movie wasn't the worst movie. It was watchable and I'm a sucker for a love triangle especially with two handsome brothers. But it's the bad acting and lack of passion that made it a not so great movie. With a better main character that can actually act and more passion and depth this movie could have actually been really good. I only enjoyed it so much for obvious reasons.. Attractive characters and an okay plot even if it was predictable.. But that's about it, I watch a lot of hallmark movies and this is kind of in that category. Just a movie to watch nothing to pass time. Nothing special.

Suzanne Pereira is Sara, living in Chicago and working as an OR nurse. As the movie opens her sister is getting married, it turns out to her former boyfriend. To get a fresh start she decides to take a job as an OR nurse in Las Vegas.

On the way, with her dog and pulling a mobile home, her truck breaks down in Utah. There she meets Chris Reid as single dad Aidan Anderson who stops and offers help. She ends up parking her mobile home on his 1000-acre ranch until her truck is repaired in a week or so.

But Aiden has a brother on the ranch, Brando White as Porter Anderson, who is immediately taken with Sara and part of the story is a mild competition of sorts between the two brothers. Plus Aiden has a really smart and cute daughter of about 10 or 11 that bonds quickly with Sara.

It is a cute movie with a mild faith theme thrown in. The actors are beautiful, the scenery is beautiful, my wife and I enjoyed the movie. At home, streaming on Prime.

The dead Dad in the photo was an excellent actor and should have been in the credits! This was a classic Hallmark style movie and is perfect for people who enjoy that style. If not, then maybe it's not for you, but I thought it was fun, cheesy, and enjoyable. Again, the actor who was the Dad was top tier and really should have been mentioned in the credits, especially since some random background actor who had barely any screen time were mentioned. Any way, it was an overall good movie and perfect for people who love a sappy romance with happy endings and funny dialogue. What a great movie and great dead Dad!
