Love Struck Café

We have a Fall Harvest 2017 favorite. Well done Hallmark. Don't get me wrong, this movie is still the formula we all know: girl from the country currently living in a big town has to come back home and runs into ex, yet above average. This one made me remember why I love these movies.

After the not-so-good movies Hallmark has been delivering I started this without much enthusiasm (Let's be real, Andrew W. Walker was the reason) and I'm glad I watched it.

I'm not gonna lie: Sarah Jane Morris and Andrew made me feel things, okay? After more than a decade their characters meet again and they start spending time together and reconnecting. Megan also gets to know Joe's daughter Lily who is adorable. All of this, of course, happens during that Fall Festival of that small town.

Megan had a boyfriend in the movie (and let me tell it's an actor that always plays THAT character we all dislike) and for once i'm glad that he is not the self-centered guy we are used to see. So points for that. Another aspect that surprised me were the flashbacks! I've only seen this element on 2 or 3 movies and they were always one or two but we get to see a few moments of their time together and I loved it!

The story/plot made sense. The characters were great. And the combination of Andrew, someone we already know, and Sarah, that we don't, was great.

A must watch.

...and sweet and charming and lovely and touching. As many others Hallmark films. Illustration of old romantic recipe, it is the classic love story and repair of the past error. Like each film of its genre, it has a gift , saving a part of predictable story. In this case, the gift is the performance of Dolores Drake who propose a more than inspired Frances Figgins . Short, a well known end and a nice love story.

Fun from start to end. Andrew Walker delivers the charm. The film is bright with colors and life, upbeat, wholesome and makes you feel good. Most films can not do that so this is one of the best.

I scored it quite highly for how good it is because it's right up my street. The kind of movie where nothing 'really' bad happens and they are all happy at the end. It warms my heart and makes me smile. It is a hallmark movie, so you either love them or you think they're cringy!

This movie was your typical Hallmark fare. The thing that irritated me, and it's kind of petty, was that Megan was fixing "healthy" food for her father. He was healing up from a broken ankle and all she fixed that poor guy was salads. The man needs protein and he kept asking for meat. She in turn kept saying that while she was taking care of him he would be eating healthy. I agree, salads are healthy, but a moderate amount of meat is too. I think the writer was a vegetarian.... totally ridiculous. He would never get his strength back just eating greens.
