Yes I had to bring up Nicholas Sparks coz if anyone remembers Nicholas Sparks's Rom-coms were a genre of their own and this movie reminded me exactly of those movies which we all love to see in a weekend but hate to admit. What I liked about this movie is that it knows that it is a feel good rom-com and it is committed to it. I felt good because it turned out better than I expected it to be. Bonus for using that dreamy sunlight glow filter in the movie which made it look like an actual movie not like a TV movie.

They said rom-coms are dead , sadly for theatres they are dead but this kind of faithful good attempts make me hopeful for this genre .

P. S- The both actors did a pretty good job, they made me rooting for them by the end of the movie.

Nicholas Galitzine is excellent in every movie I've seen of his, but I feel like he's never gotten the right role in the right movie at the right time to propel him to the proper level of success and status which he deserves. I don't want to get into the negative opinions I have about this movie. I think its flaws are apparent, and I don't think it's necessary to drag down the hard work everyone clearly did. I just wish Nicholas was given a meatier role in a A-list project, so more people could appreciate his talent.

I enjoyed this movie even tho it was a bit predictable. Very good story, the music was great BUT her singing was annoying! I could only understand 1/2 the words. Stop trying to be so breathy. Just sing.

I didn't have high expectations for this, but I ended up actually kind of enjoying it. The story itself is sweet, I liked the tension between the main characters. The acting was great and the pacing was pretty good too. It was a little predictable, but nothing too bad.

The two main characters obviously had some differences in opinions and values, but still ended up falling for each other. This is sweet and all, but I just hoped they had explored that more. I mean, their values are in direct conflict, because they're literally the opposite from each other. And they never seemed to find any common ground, there was no chemistry in their conversations. This all made the ending feel a little unbelievable.

This was pretty darn good. It's definitely a romantic, fictional-based story in every sense of the imagination but still oh so cheesy good! A must watch for the hopeless romantic who wishes to stay hopeless in reality but hopeful in fictional love storylines.

Didn't know the actors. (I'm Australian, cut me some slack) Sounded like a dud rom-com.

I'm a 54 yr old grumpy male. This is not my usual genre.

But as I'm recovering from Covid I found myself having a little pity party.

So that's my excuse for venturing into this movie.

Well, I can say it brightened my day (week) ten-fold.

Sofia Carson was brilliant. Her singing and song choices reminded me of Lady Gaga/Pink .

Don't you just love it when you take a punt on a movie and it just blows you away.

Terrific acting, great, and surprisingly good story line.

Yes, it fits in the rom-com category, but it offers much, much more.

Ok it might be predictable but the development of the characters is slow and realistic, and you witness how they end up caring deeply for one another.

Good acting as well.

It is better than the usual romcom movies that netflix produces.

First the good things,

I really like that they both had different political views and in the end of the film neither of their political views change. It'd rare to see a story where neither of the main characters change their views for the other but instead come together through it. They understand why the other party thinks that way, sympathize but doesn't mean they just abandon their own belief as well. I love that and my favorite thing in this film. It's a good lesson for people who'll cut away important people in their life due to politics. Of course, doesn't mean if someone is believing in something evil you shouldn't cut them off but in the movie they both had justifiable reasons why they believe what they believe in.

Bad things,

Music was...it wasn't so horrible I need to burn my ears but it was really not good. I've heard Sofia sing before and she IS A GOOD SINGER. Like she really is. So when I hear her singing in the movie I was like...what happened?? Did her voice change or did they ask her to sound that way? Like when she sang Part of your world or rotten to the core she didn't sound that way? She sounded so breathy (more than her norm) and strained. I'm really sad cause she's a good singer

Anyways those are the main points there's more but don't have time. It's good it's cute and don't think too hard or you won't enjoy it. It's a light hearted movie.

Formulaic? Absolutely.

Did it pioneer new territory? No.

But beyond that did it check the marks for the genre? Yes.

Two leads that devour the camera, have realistic (current) differences and evolve. And most importantly- it doesn't overthink itself. It's a story about two people that find their way. And that's enough for me- and should be for nearly anyone of the genre.

Heck- the soundtrack was great (kudos) as and added bonus.

I wanted to like it, was hoping to enjoy it as a lighthearted cheesy romance - but I could not sit through any more cringey liberal and conservative stereotypes. No one talks like this. It was painful to watch and a little too cliché for my liking.

I had very low expectations going into this. It had its charming moments, sparks of sincerity that helped make up for the silly tropes about gun-crazy marines and woke bartending musicians. But overall, it was 2 hours of somewhat soulless storytelling.

Also, why on earth do producers feel the need to over-produce vocals? I have no idea what Sofia Carson sounds like in real life because her voice is always so tampered with. It didn't sound pleasant or realistic.

Every time I watch a romance I don't expect much. Every romantic movie has three basics. In the beginning they like each other then hate each other and finally they love each other. But this film has something different. It has something real. They show us how two people fall deeply in love. And they show it to us slowly, step by step. They didn't rush anything. Yeah it's not one of the greatest movies but the story line between them it's amazing. It was a fresh air. Something new.

I can't stand her voice, her singing, her I don't care, I am so hot and cool face.

I started this movie because of Nicholas Galitzine, I didn't hate her then, but I hate her now.

The two main characters' chemistry is what eventually sells this enemies to lovers romance.

Luke is a new Marine about to be deployed, he meets Cassie through a mutual friend and fellow Marine Frankie. Cassie is a struggling singer songwriter who is working odd jobs like waitress until her band hits it big...unfortunately she can't afford the insulin that her insurance doesn't cover for her type I diabetes. Cassie figures out if she can get a marine to marry her, she would get covered by their insurance and they would get a bigger paycheck...Luke needs the money to repay some creeper from his bad boy past who is now threatening his family.

So the two get married and fake that they are in love. Once Luke is deployed they communicate through email, text and video chatting...getting to know one another. Then a wrinkle is thrown into their plan when Jake is wounded in combat.

This was a believable romance thanks to the acting of Nicholas Galitzine and Sofia Carson. Lovely looking couple together.

I did have some objections to some of the sociopolitical banter, but I didn't let it ruin my appreciation of a good romance.

I was thrilled to see Linden Ashby (of Teen Wolf fame) as Jake's retired MP father, he was fantastic as usual.

This is a recommendation to all the romantics out there. I don't think you will be sorry.

There is too much hate in the world already and give this romantic movie a break y'all. First, why be so critical on a romantic movie? I just don't get it. The movie is like a breather especially when you have seen a lot of serious movies or series. Appreciate the simplicity and immense yourself into something that somehow would allow yourself to escape reality. Who wouldn't like to have a love story like theirs? This movie tells us how great it is to have someone who really loves us and I guess the poor critiques are all so bitter enough that they fail to see the beauty of falling in love or they are too serious with their lives having no time for some love.

And the actors here really did a fantastic job! They mirror the realities of true people - that in life it is not always a happy day. You can really feel the hurt in their acting. It's like a rollercoaster ride with them.

I wished though it could have been longer. Like what we say in the Philippines, it's "Bitin". But, still a good movie. Watch this!

Hollywood can, and should do better. It's 2022 and they still can't portray a disability right.

You can tell the actress didn't research her role very well, which is probably why the movie is mostly a cheesy military love story, they just added in diabetes for theatrics.

The acting and especially the singing, were pretty bad.

DO BETTER NETFLIX.

I wanted to LOVE this .. but I liked it... great romance and chemistry between Carson and her counterpart I feel the perception of the military they got very wrong in this.... And for crying out loud keep the politics out of it!! Whats the point of blaring BLM flags all over the place ..

I watched Purple Hearts yesterday because my brain had the depth of a pancake (crepe style, not American) due to lack of sleep. It was wonderfully terrible; full of characters with the emotional range of a teaspoon so even very tired and feeling useless I got to feel superior. I loved it.
