One Small Hitch

I expected this to be another throwaway, pass-the-time movie and I was quite pleased.

There were actually funny moments and even a LOL or two, which for me is unusual in recent movies.

The romance story wasn't smooth and straight line like so many TV movies, but it was sloppy and got ugly here and there, but in a good way. Sure it ended where we expected, but getting there wasn't always predictibl

Aubrey Dollar as Molly was a little quirky and mostly upbeat and fun. The acting was all pretty decent.

I really liked this movie--I had to watch it twice. I originally intended to only watch the first 20 minutes and then save the rest for later, but it got started right away with lots of silly moments, had to go ahead at watch the whole thing. The story was super cute and funny, and poked a lot of fun at real relationships--both with lovers, as well as with friends and parents. Obviously with a rom-com you're expecting to go in a certain direction, but that is part of the deal!! I thought the cast was fantastic, and I'd love to see Aubrey Dollar in more movies. The only drawbacks had to do with suspending your disbelief about time and commitments... and would grown up people really do that?? I feel like in real life the risk would just be too obvious, but that's why we like stories--we can 'experience' things that are a little unrealistic in the name of imagination and fun.

This was way better than I was expecting. I loved the focus on family, fun situations and a few good laughs and good chemistry between the two stars. 👍🏻

If you like Hallmark movies you'll like this. Stay tuned during credits because there is more footage.

This is not a dreadfully original story, it is not worthy of an Oscar, it is rather stereotypical, and yet leaves you with a smile on your face wondering why they couldn't have made it half an hour longer.

I wish I could tell you why, but I can't. I loved all the performances, and the script was funny, but kept itself on the believable side of silly.

I doubt many critics are going to rave about it, and the movie snobs will hate it. It will not make many top lists and very few people will buy the DVD, so that they can watch it 15 times, but if you are looking to finish off an evening with a movie that sends you to bed smiling, this is an excellent pick.
