A Man for Every Month

This is the old adage of style before substance. The storyline, whilst half-baked, does fit into other Hallmark dating films they've made - but the right actors, script & chemistry has to work to make it palatable. None were apparent here, I'm afraid. I gave 4 stars & even that is generous !

Similar story lines have been done before but this would have been so much better with another female lead. It was hard to watch with Carlson Young in that role as she was not believable in the part. She appeared and sounded like a junior high school student, jail bait, which basically discredited the whole movie. Terribly miscast!

The critical reviews seem to forget this is a Hallmark movie. The cast was attractive and handled their parts well. Pleasant to watch. The plot is very basic bot the cast carries the show. And the dialogue is quite good for this type movie.

I might say the quantity is a little better than the quality.

There's three romance stories which shortchanges them all especially Jolene Blalock's. Add to it that Megan is serial dating because of the vlog. Her love interest almost disappears for a bit before the climax. There is a lot going on and at times it seems a little chaotic, or disjointed.

Too many of the characters around Megan's story are cardboard, especially Jack. I'm pretty sure that was an intentional choice by the director or writers, so don't blame the actors. Some of it should have been funny, but it wasn't lol. Maybe I smiled a couple times.

Carlson Young was too juvenile and naïve, which again may have been the director. I wanted to have Jack arrested for taking advantage of an underage girl. It was sad, not funny.

I said that Brenda and Ben's story got shortchanged which is too bad, because it could have been interesting.

Because there was so much going on, I didn't get bored. I was tempted to FF a few times out of embarrassment for one of the characters, usually Megan.

This is horrible. At 23 minutes, I'm done. I rarely bail on a movie. I have never heard of any of these people. Lead actress was bad. The supporting actress Justine Alpert was great and should seriously be considered for lead actress in HM movies. She was the only one up to this point with good acting skills. They could use some fresh faces. The lady as the "boss" was awful and I couldn't see past her lip injections. Sorry.
