Not a bad storyline, but way too many holes. Stella, played by a British actress, has a poor American accent. She's supposed to be from Montana, but I think they confused Montana with Kentucky or someplace green and with a southern accent. She has loads of free time, even in the evening when she's supposed to be working. I just found the whole production to be a bit ridiculous at times. Theo was charming, but the best part of the film were the scenes with Stella's friend Rebecca. The production is colorful and engaging. But I couldn't get past Stella's poor accent and the many holes in the storyline.
Nice story but I just couldn't get past the terrible fake American accent. The plot was the usual hallmark style - easy watching, kind of predictable but sweet. There was the requisite developing romance between 2 individuals who have no plans or desire to meet someone or fall in love. There was interesting sites & scenes around Notting Hill in London. All together there was potential for a good movie. But all of this gets lost behind that terrible fake accent.
In this day & age of globalism where viewers know what accents for different regions sound like, if you're characters are from a specific area, you should use actors that are either from that area or can actually pull off the accent. Not use an English actor who does a bad representation of being an extra from Grease.

I wanted to love this movie but lead actress kept getting in the way. She looked and acted like a 12 year old brat. Poor acting skills and I guess the writer shares in the poor role. A head chef is texting like a high schooler, cannot walk down the street without bumping into multiple ppl???
No, we had to turn it off which is too bad since her pen pal and leading man were good actors. Love the filming and scenery.
This plays like a bad Hallmark movie including the age differences between the male and female leads. It's gross.
Foote should have insisted she could be smart and romantic not just play a school girl on a movie.

After decades of Americans doing terrible depictions of 'British' accents and culture, it's refreshing to see this movie is annoying my US friends!
In a world of increasing misinformation/misrepresentation, many of these shows, wherever set and made, are also very flawed in their writing, which could and should be improved across the genre.
On the upside, any inclusion of actual locations is always great in productions, and a good use of the budget, especially where a number of viewers are likely to have visited.

The main character was completely unlikeable and unbelievable. Besides her awful attitude, she is supposed to be from Montana yet has an accent more akin to NYC. Lazy direction and a waste of a cast. If you are going to have a character play an American at least get it right son. We barely made it past the food critic scene. I can assure you someone from Montana is most likely not going to talk like her or behave like that. Someone from the east coast might but that is like a different world. The lead actress has some impressive credits to her name but she might want to try an accent from a different part of the US if she wants to be believable.
