Season for Love

With the preponderance of food related careers among our Hallmark protagonists, I suppose it was only a matter of time before we entered the world of competition Barbecue. This one was not bad due to the presence of Autumn Reeser, one of the better Hallmark Actresses. In fact, everyone did a good job in getting the most out of their lines. Otherwise, it was strictly by the Hallmark playbook, and totally predictable. Noteworthy, however, in this entry, was a nice ex-husband with whom our heroine had no conflict whatsoever. He was a good father, and even the new love interest, an excellent Marc Blucas, liked him, and visa versa.

A cute story with attractive stars. Somewhat predictable, but very entertaining.

The, well, hallmark of Hallmark movies are sweetly predictable plot lines and this one is no different. But what sets it apart is the easy, natural acting from all the principle characters (Marc Blucas in particular) and the chemistry between the two leads. I also appreciate that, despite the two leads competing against each other in a cook off, it's all just light, friendly banter. There are also no weird love triangles, no jealous exes, and no one getting jilted. It's a delightfully fluffy, feel good watch!

Pleasant Hallmark movie with likable stars and cast set in the Texas town of Red Rock. Most Hallmark movies are shot in Canada and not on location. One issue I found was how the actors pronounced the word of the smoker, the Staubach, named after the Dallas Cowboys QB, Roger Staubach. They pronounced it Staw-buck and not Staw-bock.

The taste of end, forced, fake , unrealistic dominates about this film. A modest one Hallmark, mixing same ingredients - from the single parent to the love from youth , forced vacantion and great opportunity, noble refused to talks , competition, small town, business of parents.

It is not bad, it is not boring but it has the bad luck to be only another Hallmark.

The effort of actors is just nice and the supporting actors are in right positions. But you feel than something just missing. Each scene seems copy from others and the main actors are just good people but nothing more.

The food as subject is not a wrong idea but except the smoker and its problems - the fire being the clue moment - nothing seems very interesting.

The poor Marc Blucas seems interpretate a teenager, the smiles, dialogues, nature of romance reminding a teen enloved by his teacher. Autumn Reeser gives his character , same for each film from Hallmark and she has right in good measure.

The opportunity to like the film - maybe the work of Shelley Thompson. And the young Lola Flanery, off course.

In short, nice , the polite term for Hallmark universe.
