Rescuing Madison

The trials of a celebrity trying to date an unknown. It's been done, a few times. Throw in rival former celebrity beau. That's been done also.

I enjoyed the two leads. Perhaps some of that is because I was previously unfamiliar with Alona Tal.

His sister was great. I loved the deer-in-the-headlights scene.

The manager is truly hate-worthy.

There are better versions of this movie out there. She's a singer with a comeback and yet does absolutely no work. Granted she was in a near death situation, but that only canceled her show. She doesn't write music ever. She doesn't play any instruments ever...she's a non working singer who wants a life. Who would believe she wanted her career? The problem with this movie is that everyone else around her works to make her dreams happen. Including the fireman. And she comes off pretty ungrateful. IDK, I also didn't find her to be that engaging so I really quit about halfway through. Also in 2021, the idol worship of "famous people" is just really cringe.

I ended up FF to the end. Better movies with this storyline of famous person wanting to be with a "regular person" are: Summer of My Dreams and Wedding of My Dreams, Catch a Christmas Star, Guess Who's Coming to Christmas, or Beyond the Lights. Or Sweet Mountain Christmas with the amazing Megan Hilty. These movies actually showed the conflict between life and career.

I liked the story - while predictable it was still good and just different enough from the rest of the hallmark movies. ethan peck did a good job but I was disappointed by alona tal. I've seen her and enjoyed her in other things but felt she didn't really connect with this character. and we were disappointed because the version we saw did not show her singing.

From the Hallmark look-alike studio called PixL which you probably didn't know about because they never release a trailer on YouTube, comes a surprisingly good movie about a fireman and the singer he saves from a burning building. If that sounds too trite, it's not. Really. Alona Tal's professional singing and Ethan Peck's deep listening gazes invites us on a love-struck journey of two very different people who share very much the same likable attitudes. Love story? Heck yeah! But what's not to love? Seriously, I know it's like from the same studio and all, but this was way better writing than most of the stuff Hallmark puts out...

Loved the whole story and have been back watching over and over. I thought casting was wonderful and very believable and just a well done job by the stars
