Love in the Limelight

Unlike other reviewers, I thought this was a sweet story and I enjoyed watching it. All of the main actors seemed to be enjoying themselves. I especially enjoyed the dancing Abuela. The film has a light humorous aspect. I thought that the married in real-life couple did a good job of showing their deep friendship and love for each other.

We appreciated that this was a different movie than normal on this channel. We thought the music was pretty good and that the chemistry was just fine between the leads.

I was looking forward to watching this. It is seriously a big miss. I enjoyed their movies on Hallmark Movies and Mysteries, they worked well together and were entertaining to watch. This entre was awful.

Not only did they both look like they were rid and put away wet, they both acted like they were in a bad high school play. Mrs. Penavega reminded me of a mindless air head and Mr. Penavega is not a singer. He is a decent guitar player. Frankly, they should stick to dancing. This Hallmark presentation is among one of the most boring movies they have ever made. Honestly, after the first 15 minutes, I was ready to delete it. I did watch the whole thing and then deleted it. At least it was new, if a dull though recycled plot.

I don't know why people are bashing the actors. I think some of the comments were just rude. I think the acting was good. Then someone made a negative statement about them being "extra religious" as if this has anything to do with their acting. This was a good movie. I enjoyed the acting, the chemistry between the leads, the Latino influence and the story line. I really like Alexa and Carlos PenaVega together in movies. The grandmother was great. I am thankful for movies that are clean and family oriented.

I enjoyed this story and I liked the way the characters revealed themselves. The husband and wife team have starred in several Hallmark movies which I liked and with this movie I was far from disappointed. There was at least one review that lambasted the male lead. My take is that he did a very credible job and his voice was solid too.
