Snapshot of Love

Nicely Entertainment/G It's Entertainment productions have to be the most amateur of the rom-com production companies. You can tell that there isn't much money for locations and actors. Probably little time for rehearsals and direction is minimal. Poor scripts and painfully poor acting are hallmarks, quantity over quality,

Hallmark rom-coms aren't perfect but they're a thousand percent better especially with the acting. If a script is good, viewers will overlook some of the bad inexperienced acting, but when the script is also bad it's doomed.

Giovagnoli has been in a number of films, but she always plays basically the same character, no range in acting. Looks like cast and crew work as cast or crew or both depending on need.

This movie was playing on the Tubi streaming service. I'm glad I didn't pay to see it.

The acting is very stinted especially with the minor characters like the newscasters and the boss at the talent agency. I'm so ready to shut off the movie, but I am in the mood for a mindless romance movie. This definitely meets that requirement. The two leads were cute together but rather boring around them.

She's a photographer? All the pictures taken in Hollywood are digital but her visit "home" are film. I've been a photographer, who does film cameras these days?

It's just as predictable as the usual Brian Brough and Brittany Wiscombe usual bland movies.

Let's be honest - there are only so many ways to follow the rom-com formula and be new, fun, and engaging.

This particular attempt falls short in a lot of the acting which seems stilted or fake.

Lexi Giovagnoli is not remotely believable as a Hollywood paparazzi photographer. Her portrayal of this character is so lifeless that she also falls short of winning over the hearts of the viewers who are supposed to want her to get the guy.

If you are looking for filler while you wait for your favorite shows to drop new episodes - this is not completely unwatchable. It ticks all the rom-com formula boxes. Just don't expect stellar performances or dialogue and you will be fine.

Rented this for $4 on YouTube, and it felt like a waste. Storyline is uninteresting and full of cliches. The acting is akin to an amateur theatre group, at times flat, at times over the top, but hadly ever feels natural.

I did finish the movie but only because I didn't object to the overall rating, PG, and I usually watch movies to the end unless I find it offensive.

But it was so very slow moving. There were numerous long pauses of no action or conversation. It just dragged.

The acting was often times horrible. Many cases of overacting, but for the most part it seemed fake, rather than pulling you into the movie.

The script wasn't great either, and felt forced at times. Overall theme seemed reasonable, but the direction given was over the top and unbelievable.

No foul language. No bedroom scenes or allusions to such.

The whole movie I just wanted to fast-forward to the predictable end just to get done with it.
