Verliebt im Schnee - Ein Winter in Colorado

Lacey Chabert is my Queen of Hallmark and I think Tyler Hynes is one of the best male leads these films have, so to see them paired together excited me from the off.

This was a fab Hallmark film, with some lovely messages and moments. The two leads have good chemistry, making for an enjoyable 80+ minutes overall.

Ok. It's a Hallmark movie. Girl meets obnoxious boy. Boy melts her heart. Someone has died. You know the ropes. But is it worth the watch? Yeppers. Lacey is always the Hallmark princess. Tyler ab libs many of his lines and true to form they're gems. Good story. Great scenery. Three best things. Lacey and Tyler aren't actors saying lines. They ARE the characters. You don't hit the fast forward on the remote - except commercials. Third, it's a Penny Perry casted movie. She puts the magic together. Great job Hallmark.

When a hard-working L.A. event planner unexpectedly inherits a chalet in Vail, she reevaluates her life, quits her job, and moves to the resort town. Lacey Chabert plays Chelsea---who suddenly uproots her life---with her usual charm. She meets Owen (Tyler Hynes) there. He's a soft-spoken contractor who lives by Vail's more relaxed pace. Together they attempt to revive a portion of Vail and the restaurant run by Owen's father.

Though its story line is mostly about following one's dreams, the film's romance is its most captivating aspect, thanks in large part to the appeal of Tyler Hynes. His portrayal of Owen feels genuine. This is not a film about wooing; their relationship grows organically from their mutual respect and their recognition of each other's caring nature.

The self-fulfillment theme also works without simplifying the hard decisions that can accompany a choice between life goals and passion. This is one of the better Hallmark romances.

6/10 - a Hallmark Christmas movie without the Christmas remains sweet and simple

I'm always skeptical when watching a Lacey Chabert movie, entirely too much giggling & broad smiles for my liking. I agree with a previous reviewer, she toned that down for this role. The actors were in sync and the script was not bad. Good movie to kick off 2020.
