Hot in Love

The main characters in this movie are high energy and upbeat. Gia is a lovable character. Jim is pretty good also, not to mention Lizzy. Many of the supporting characters have something that makes them stand out. Like pushy Karen. She is a bit hard to take at first, but she has a great heart and it is hard to hate her.

The story has a lot of fresh elements. Inclusion is prominent, mostly in a good way. The political junk is annoying, but I guess there had to be something to create the tension. I just wish it was not politics which I hate. There's no great highs or lows or surprises, but the all the positive energy still makes the overall worthwhile.

This movie could be a nitpicker's dream. Widow moves to an expensive house on a lake and her full time job is to build one playground. Seriously? There are so many others, but they don't matter.

Yes, there is plenty of overacting from multiple actors. Bear with it and look for the nice scenery, some familiar faces and so on. Remember it was filmed with covid restrictions, its not that hard to notice. I'd rather watch this film than nothing at all these days.

A feel good movie. Very refreshing to see multiple non-stereotypical ethnicities represented (all in a positive light) including multi-racial relationships and the addition of special needs characters. It's about time! Would have given the last star had multiple sizes been represented, however otherwise exceptionally relatable in today's climate. Multiple talented cast members in both main and supportive roles; great to see big names of the likes of Devon Alexander and Christopher Russell - in the same movie first off(!) - but also portrayed in a positive, non-competitive 'friendship' role, instead of traditional antagonistic roles of males. And the female characters lift each other up instead of the petty drama characteristic of far too many Hallmark movies. Both main characters have depth apart and together, growing their friendship over time into something stronger. So much better! The associated 'misunderstanding' at the climax of all romance movies was surprisingly not drawn out with escalation of overinflated feelings, but instead talked out when confronted. Far more balanced and relatable than typical. Love that the dominant female was not a wedding planner or fashion designer. Thanks for thinking outside the box JPG ;) And as much as I loved the Wedding Veil Trilogy and the camaraderie of big female names supporting each other in the same movies, this movie alone goes further and puts big names together in real-time, not mostly phone & zoom calls, which made the former seem far more choppy. Check it out and see for yourself! Nicely done.

I loved the dynamic between the characters. Such great chemistry and they were so fun o watch. I also loved that it was an inclusive story that was so heartfelt yet light. I highly recommend.

How can a movie be made with firefighters all have beards I'm a firefighter and we are NOT allowed to have them why does Hollywood do fake movies maybe try using REAL HEROES ones who put lives on line not these fake ones.
