Un chien pour deux

Let me tell you a secret...I've seen this three times already. I just love this movie so much. Of course, I love the retired service dog named SUNSHINE. She's simply one of the best dog actors there is, and she is the reason these two people met.

**********

I'm a military brat so I kind of know some of the things here, and the other reviewer is right, the insignia is correct, but suddenly an Air Force bus fetches him...I know there are Army planes too, but maybe they were in US Air Force territory/hangar. It could happen. The USAF protect the bases, and they seldom get deployed, so maybe a few of them are called to serve along with the Army soldiers. Well, enough of that. I may know a little, but I don't know everything, so maybe I should leave things be.

The important thing about this movie is the beautiful story, and the chemistry between DANICA and MARK as Ally and Jake is the tops.

I know they are not real life sweethearts. Mark is happily married to Jamie, they have two kids together, and they have dogs.

Danica was divorced once, and has one child named Draco. She has been married to Scott for almost five years now.

Watching the two together is like magic. They made me believe that they have an instant romantic connection. The feeling's just so wonderful.

Oh, there was a reviewer who complained because of Mark's real age, he's too old to be Bess Armstrong's son. Why can't we get that she is playing a role? That she is not playing Bess Armstrong. She's Margo Terry. For all we know she could be a very young looking mother.

I, by the way, love the Margo Terry quotes uttered by BESS ARMSTRONG. Please listen to them.

I also like the supporting cast most especially: Toby Levins(Sam), Christine Chatelain(Emma), Vera Frederickson(cutie Lena Terry), Brenda Crichlow(Trisha Collins), Daniel Bacon(Denver Collins), April Telek(Donna), Jessie Fraser(Barb Terry) and Whoever played Lena's brother.

Oh, and you're going to love that the kisses are uninterrupted.

Well, I guess that's it.

I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, so I hope you would enjoy it like I still do.

This movie portrays a mature relationship between two people who meet under very realistic circumstances, each with a history of personal issues that remain unresolved, and the script allows them to slowly and cautiously develop a bond that Hallmark often misses in it's more "fluffy" offerings. Danica McKellar is always reliable in her roles as a mature, intelligent woman and she portrays the female lead in this film with seriousness, with understandable caution moving into a new relationship. Mark Deklin is an attractive leading man, with a captivating smile, but with a serious side that make his role completely believable and valid. It is a pleasure to watch two professionals truly portray their characters. So many Hallmark movies rely on excessive smiling, irrelevant giggling, contrived plots, immature relationships.This one shows how two people, with their own needs and issues and caution about moving forward can learn to trust one another for valid reasons, and allow new hope to enter their lives. The secondary characters in the film do very well.. An older Bess Armstrong as the hero's mother is a strong woman, relaxed in her own values and beliefs. The hero's relationship with his brother is presented realistically.. The heroine's rejected former fiance is shown as a well-meaning fellow who missed the mark when it came to meeting his partner's emotional needs. Probably the real star of this film is the dog..who is so lovable that every scene with her is lit up by her presence. Hallmark, please try to send us more of this sort of movie! Your viewers are intelligent and mature. We really appreciate your respecting that audience and meeting our needs.

This movie has a dog and a veteran in a romance. Not key elements but they add points in my book.

The story was a little more unpredictable than most of the Hallmark movies lately.

The leads connected.

There were some flaws and clumsy moments. McKellar is still acting more like a young twenty-something than her age. Still I enjoyed it.

The chemistry between the main characters were great. Ive seen most of the movies that Danica is in and this is by far the best one.

A military , a dog, a young woman and a decent story, meritous more for the end.

The only sin - the impression about hard effort of Danica McKellar to propose fair traits to her character .

The good point - the dog, off course and, in same measure, the science of Mark Deklan to

A military, a dog, a young woman. The predictable romance.

After so many Hallmark romances, nothing new or real bad. The end can be the good gift for viewer .

Only problem - Danica McKellar seems be not very comfortable in her role.

The good point, no doubts, the dog and the fine manner to explore his character of Mark Deklin.
