Una pizca de amor

I really enjoyed this. First? Brendan Penny is my favorite Hallmark leading man and Jen L is always adorable (this time more than most though I couldn't stop just staring at those big eyes and not in a good way). It wasn't overly cheesy, it wasn't overly acted, I really liked it. I like that the conflict at the end wasn't another guy or somehow that they really screwed each other over or anything.

While it's definitely one of the better movies, there was also really nothing that grabbed me so much that I would be eager to rewatch. But definitely a great watch one time!

I found it on Amazon Prime with my Hallmark movies subscription.

OK, maybe I intended to make a pun and it backfire. What do I have to say? I LOVED this movie. I expected this to be a classic Hallmark movie that I enjoy for half and hour, and maybe pause three or four times to check twitter, but let me tell your something: I didn't paused it, not even once! And that's when I know it's going into my Hallmark's favorite movies list.

First of all. The plot was good. The acting was good, even the secondary characters were good. I swear 30 minutes into the movie and I was smiling life a fool.

Brendan Penny - and here I thought he had chemistry with Rachel Leigh Cook - may be one of my favorite Hallmark guys (along with Andrew W.Walker) and even though I enjoyed what he has done, he had me here smiling like an idiot. I saw Jen Lilley in "The spirit of Christmas" just yesterday and she did a good job, but in this movie, she was great, she played the adorable girl who is trying to get her dream come true. The most important thing is that...

What had me smiling for an hour straight is the chemistry between the two leads, OH MY GOD, I'm still smiling while I write this. I really hope they get to make another movie together. I'll be the first in line to watch it.

I initially tuned in to watch the movie without much hope it would be anything more than the usual Valentine's Day drivel. I was pleasantly surprised, especially by the very solid performance by Jen Lilley. This was her best performance to date, in my opinion. Other performances by other actors was acceptable but nothing outstanding. Nevertheless, I found the movie quite pleasing and fun to watch.

The story line is pretty ordinary and Brendan Penny, who has the male lead, is nothing special but Jen Lilley is both charming and delightful, making this movie a worthwhile watch.

I loved this very sweet romantic kind of Valentines' Day movie. Hurrah to the writer's for making this one stand out from the pack. I thought the arena of POP UP restaurant events was very au currant, and interesting to me. Keep 'em coming, Hallmark. The cast did a good job as well, Perri Gilpin as a witch? Great casting & job, Peri.

There is a lot going on in this movie, which cannot be said for many Hallmark original movies. It is entertaining and interesting throughout the two hours (minus commercials) and while some parts might be semi-predictable, the plot points were still intriguing.
