Craft Me a Romance

The story line was ok but was boring for the most part. The acting was terrible and Jodi Sweetin should stick to full house. GAC paid to much money to show this. It was more like a .99 movie dvd you find at the goodwill. Jodi needs to stick to tv because her acting skills are F-. After I watched this I googled the title to read reviews from other people. I noticed that Jodi Sweetin was angry this movie was sold to GAC. She should be grateful that it was sold. I hope GAC doesn't buy anymore of her movies because this movie was a waste of my time watching it. I know now I will not watch anymore of her movies they are like watching glue dry.

The acting and the story line is pretty cheesy, even for this genre of movie. I have watched almost all hallmark movies and when this channel split off some of the actors and actresses I was excited for new opportunities, but this movie - didn't do it. It almost seems like they are trying to pack too much into the movie. Sometimes it's okay to leave out information or lines and the story can still come across. It almost feels like they don't believe their story line can survive without spelling it out for us the viewers. If you want some background noise it's okay, but if you are wanting to watch it for the acting and story - I would skip it.

This movie came on after another one finished on Tubi. The first thing I noticed that was bad about the movie was the music. There was electronic music, fast-paced piano and more. One thing I've always noticed about movies is that the music can make or break the film. In this case it broke the film into so many small little pieces is not worth putting back together. Throughout the whole movie it was different styles of music like with violins and then later all piano. What did someone do get free sound clips off the internet? And yes the acting was pretty bad. The only good actor was the guy that played Matthew Mitchell the lead. I never watched full House but I know that the head actress was on it. The writing was pretty bad too. And when the opening lines in the craft store someone goes "my tutorial will restock the store"... huh?

Like I wrote in the title of this, ghost watch something else. Watching paint would be more fun than wasting an hour and a half on this.

When I watch Hallmark movies I'm looking for a sweet escape. The acting is generally not A+ but as long as the overall story is sweet & engaging, I don't mind. Some parts were just that - others weren't at all. Jodie's love story was forced, Andrea's was adorable - if the movie were based around her it would have been so much better. 💕 Jodie's strength, in my opinion, is comedy. She lacks emotion. Andrea outshines Jodie in most heartfelt scenes - which is basically throughout the movie. I'm excited to follow Andrea's career. I hope it's as fruitful and long lasting. She deserves leading roles in these Hallmark type movies. She was made for it.

I will find it difficult to fulfill the character requirement on this one. From the very start the phone conversation between Father and son was so cliched and the lead actress' acting was dreadful. She was just reading her lines with no commitment or true expression. The customers entering her store were even worse and within 5 minutes it felt like I was watching a high school play. I rarely review a film or series without seeing it through to the end but this one was impossible to watch and I generally love Hallmark movies.

It was the typical opening set-up with the son of a huge conglomerate being sent to a small town to promote their new store and tear down the competition. Won't be hard to guess what happens but with dialogue, direction and acting as bad as this, I won't be watching to find out.
