A Gift of Miracles

I liked the movie, brings a suspense to the next development of the clues in the book. The characters are funcional and real well chosen. The story of the movie is really nice and emotional. I like these kinda of stories.

This is enjoyable film that is made great by Rita Moreno's performance. Her character is so genuine and warm that it is delightful to watch.

Most Hallmark movies follow this formula - feel good fun until 1.5 hours and then conflict until it ends with a kiss. This movie had its own formula that made it more interesting. Further, I always like Rachel Boston; she makes a 6 movie into an 8.

Darcy Miller (Rachel Boston) is a reserved science nerd microbiologist. Her grant proposal is too scientific, too complicated, and she has no use for imagination. She is put together with writing professor Nathan Riley (Jesse Moss) to pump it up. A storm causes damage to the family storage and she finds a list from her late mother. It's a list of things that her mother wanted to give away to various people. She runs into Nathan who convinces her to finish her mother's list.

I love the concept but I don't buy these characters. I don't buy her as a closed off science nerd and I don't buy him as a free spirit zen master. She should at least wear some nerdy glasses and he should be wearing a hookah shell necklace. I also noticed something else. She's taller than him. They should talk to Tom Cruise about that. Otherwise, I like the premise of finding yourself in completing your mother's wish list. That has real power as long as it's done right. It's asking a lot for Hallmark.

I really enjoyed this movie. The two main characters were true to the script. They represented themselves in one being spiritual and the other not spiritual. Darcy's mother died when she was only one-year-old in a car accident. Her father who is a lot like Darcy very left brain at least that's what they called it but I will say they are people like book smart and who does not believe in the un explained. That explains why she is the way she is. I don't want to give away to much so I will leave it. It's simply written and really helps get the point across that there are spiritual things in life that can happen for reasons. Of course a little extreme but that makes it fun for us who believe. I can truly relate to this movie because I've had wonderful gifts to teach me of spiritual truths in my life.
