Love in Paradise

An actor cowboy or a fake cowboy goes to real ranch retreat resort and falls for a woman who runs it. Luke Perry and Emmanuelle Vaugier playbthe couple. The pairing is age appropriate. The ranch looks nice. A little fantasy element as he helps round up horses. It's not too exciting but it's an okay background watch.

The horses and scenery are beautiful. The plot is predictable but the constant humor makes this a fun movie to watch more than once. Casting was perfect.

Excellent cast and good (not overly saccharine) script places this a couple steps beyond the usual Hallmark romantic comedy fare.

The leading lady looks a bit too glamorous to be a Montana cowgirl...but hey, it's a movie. Luke Perry does well as a "fish out of water" New York-based actor in the big sky country.

And it's good to see Matt Frewer as the country vet.

Sure, the "evil" real estate developer plot device is a bit stale..and a Hallmark staple, likewise the city slicker agent (and potential romance rival to the the leading lady) character is very predictable. Still, the rest of the script makes it easy to overlook those shortcomings.

Well worth your time of you're in the mood for some light fun.

This Hallmark movie had very relatable characters who have lots of humorous moments. The developing romance was very believable which sometimes doesn't happen in all Hallmark movies.

Luke Perry made 3 "Goodnight for Justice" Westerns for Hallmark. Three years later, "Love in Paradise" was released. This is a really fun nod to the Goodnight films, especially the way it makes fun of the Beverly Hills 90210 lifestyle and Western movies.
