Field Day

I loved this movie. The three main characters have great chemistry. Yes at times it can be a bit cheesy - but I think all Hallmark movies can be. I enjoyed the women navigating real life struggles. For a few hours it is nice to be taken up into a story with a happy ending. It is funny that another reviewer wished they could have the 2 hours back they put into the movie. I usually can tell right away if I am into a story. This movie came on at the perfect time for me - I so enjoyed watching the interaction of the characters. I laughed and particularly enjoy Rachel Boston . I would even like to see a sequel to this movie and see the three women have another adventure together.

Rachel and Benjamin are sweet in this. But something didn't gel with the story of their falling for each other. I got that initial attraction but then the drama of going on a date then it not being a date and then the next scenes.. all a stupid plot.

What works in this is the friendship of the three women, lovely how they came together and forged something meaningful and lasting. As a non American I didn't get the big deal of Field Day. We called it athletics in my day and it was run by the school and I don't recall any mothers organising any part of it. They seem to have too much influence on school activities in this film - is this the norm in the States?

I really like the mixed variety of plot threads in Field Day. The show empathizes the value of friendships and how friends can carry you through tough times. The movie focuses on three woman and allows each to face struggles, receive support from each other and grow. It has a nice warm feeling! The women show understanding, emphathy and strength. They are supportive of each other especially against the mean moms but they also have "can do" attitude that I really like. The friendships don't take away from family time or the importance of family but rather weave family members into the story easily.

Yes, of course, there is the typical girl meets boy plot but it takes second place to friend ships formed. I've watched it twice now and really like the character development.

Don't miss this one, it's different and fun.

I appreciated the nice try to propose more than familiar recipe of romance in Hallmark style. It is a film about friendship, motherhood, appearences, pretty realistic, decent crafted and charming for fine exploration of sensitive subjects. And for acting, not last.

The courage to reflect aspects of ordinary life, from the pijama pants to the try to be implied in daughter education in same measure than the husband, the memory of reposed husband as obstacle for happiness and as kick for new page of life, the work on social media compensanting inperfection from real life, the cake , the games, the pure friendship are just good points of this pretty surprising Hallmark who represents little more than dusty familiar Hallmark romance.

I found the Hallmark movie "Field Day" to be a sweet and funny movie, full of friendships, grieving and love. It was a nice spin on Hallmark's normalcy's. With lessons in loss and love. Love that also included seeing the special relationships that come from the love from friendships. Funny bits along the way that included life lessons. It was nice to see a movie where you have kind female friend groups. Friends that except each other for their flaws and don't give up on each other. Recognizing that If your circle is not clapping for you, find a different circle. I found the movie to be simply delightful.
