steve d Burton always makes it watchable but this is far from her best. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member After watching over 140 Hallmark movies, I am declaring this to be my favourite. This movie will literally make you laugh and cry and it will tug at your heart strings – at least it did for me. To start, the humour is almost unprecedentedly actually funny compared to other Hallmark movies. I really laughed out loud when Josie was talking about her parent's party on the phone and Max asked her "Coronation?" and then again when Josie and Richard came to the park in their business suits and Max asked "Corporate takeover of (could have been "in") the park?" Paul Campbell's comic timing was absolute genius throughout the show. The Mayfield family dynamics would remind many of us of our own family dynamics and it is so wonderful to see how it all worked out for them. Fills the world with hope! The entire Mayfield family cast are brilliant from the younger sister to the grandfather. They are real, they are likeable/understandable characters despite their flaws and they love each other at the end of the day – awwwww! I just wish Max could have had a better career path and not been such a hippie character which is not normally seen as desirable in this day and age but otherwise, I could not wax more lyrical about this show. Perfect chemistry between Josie and Max and they had us rooting for them all the way. Probably the first time in 140 Hallmark movies I really wish there is a sequel. For now, considering I caught this movie on Youtube, my wish is that Amazon would restock the DVD so that I can order a copy! If I could give this movie more stars, I would. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review lanfranco c Surprised by a sweet film ! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a cute TV movie, predictable content-wise but the main actors provide a pretty convincing act and I do not understand why they are not selected to play in more movies. A romantic film with no pretensions, a low budget film that surpasses by far similar films produced for a huge budget. Score 8.0 for a romantic movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Where luminous Hilarie Burton gets to choose between a tool and a different tool for a life partner. Thank god for Tim Conway and Leanne Lapp with strong supporting work Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member One of my favourite Hallmark/TV movies. Both leads were extremely likeable! Very funny! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
