Harvest Moon

I enjoyed the movie. One thing just bothered me quite much was the daughter's age and behaviour which was not quite for the actress who played her. The lines were written for a preschooler.

It's been done over and over : rich city girl, country boy, both come from different worlds so surely they can't get along?

Well it's a hallmark movie so of course they do! Throw in the obligatory rich girl falling in a muddy puddle, and the country boy thinking she's too stuck up to get along with him or his family, and you have all the classics of a harmless family movie.

Put it on in the background while you're doing something else and don't take it too seriously ! - nice gentle but predictable... no spoilers needed as you can already guess what is going to happen ... and you'd be correct !

I found this movie a feel good movie that shows some good life values similar to the TV series Heartland. It was entertaining and good for the whole family to watch without swearing or profanity. A little country touch got me rocking in my seat. A breath of fresh air. As the title says Harvest Moon is actually the setting in which the movie plot begins. It shows that the city life mixed with a little country can work out, you might just have to get a little dirty. Two thumbs up!!

High maintenance rich girl Jennifer Stone (Jessy Schram) suddenly finds that her father has lost the family fortune. All she has left is an unknown pumpkin farm and she intends to sell the place quick. The Jarrett family has been living there and Brett Jarrett (Jesse Hutch) intends to buy it back but they don't have the money.

At first, I was going to complain about Schram. She's trying too hard but at least she's trying. Hutch is barely doing anything other than a smoldering frustration. It's not enough and it's not appealing anyways. I'd rather have them fighting. He's better off with the coffee girl. At the end of the day, this is not a horrible movie. For Hallmark, it's hitting on a lot of the targets. I wouldn't say it's good either.

I like this movie. I think it's one of Hallmark's cuter fall flicks (mainly Jessie Schram (sp?) and her charm leading the way). However, the 12-year-old girl who is adorable but acts like she's seven kills me. Either get a seven-year-old or have the girl act her age. It's insulting to tweens to have her behave so childishly. Also, city girls may not know how farms work, but they know from tv and movies what a rooster's crow is 🙄🙄🙄. Aside from those things (mistreatment of child actor's age and lack of knowledge of farm life) it's a really sweet film. Those just make it so I have to be in the right mood to watch it.
