Just Add Romance (2019)

Image
Directed by TERRY INGRAM Written by KAREN BERGER ABOUT JUST ADD ROMANCE To put this "review"/reaction piece here or not(or on imdb ), that was the question...an inward debacle...a debate between me and myself.   Well, since you're reading this here, ergo, I got my answer. 😛 Hallmark’s ‘Just Add Romance’: Cast, Time & Photos I already had my own opinion so I didn't really need to go to the imdb reviews, but I still read everything.  It's very seldom when the reviewers share the same opinion, and so far, this is one of them. Almost everyone mentioned that they weren't kissed deprived, it's not the usual cooking show, and it's not the usual teenage romance(not in those words) type of movie where the two characters are both insecure of the other's feelings, and of their own worth. There are family issues, and model families. Wow, they even noticed the healthy competition between the contestants(all six of them), and I mu...

Christmas Getaway (2017)

Image
From imdb Raven Stewart and Travis Van Winkle ( link leads to the source ) This movie is almost perfect except for the part where a very beautiful successful Travel Writer named Emory is so insecure of Alice because she thinks Alice is perfect.   Maybe she does not look in the mirror a lot.  What's wrong with her?  I know she doesn't want to assume or anything, but Scott ditches Alice most of the time, and his eyes twinkle whenever she's around. Oh well.   I won't be technical, don't worry. I love this story mostly because of Katy and her Nana named Marilyn.  Of course, Scott and Emory spell m-a-g-i-c perfectly.  You can really easily see the chemistry between them.  Emory did not have that with William. Oh, another thing, this is also one of those movies where the kisses are reserved towards the end.  Did I spoil it for you?  The moments are perfect, so you better watch out for that. There a...

A Family For Christmas (2015)

Image
Why can't a woman live her dream and be happy?  Why can't a man live his dream and be happy?  The two main characters, at least in the alternate universe, had to give up their dreams...what they really wanted in life to be a family. If I didn't like this, why am I writing about it? I love the two main stars, LACEY CHABERT and TYRON LEITSO.  I love the two kids who played their children, MILLI WILKINSON and AUDREY SMALLMAN.  Hey, I also liked JILL MORRISON who played Tammy, MATTHEW KEVIN ANDERSON who played Grant and BRITTNEY WILSON who played Carrie.  They did great. I know, I know, at the end of the day, you would look back and examine your day...your life.   Yes, everything is about the choices we make and how everything is a chain reaction. True happiness is important, but she was already living her dream.  She missed that life.  Is it because she can't have her cake and eat it too?   Ben also gav...
