Field Day

I really like the mixed variety of plot threads in Field Day. The show empathizes the value of friendships and how friends can carry you through tough times. The movie focuses on three woman and allows each to face struggles, receive support from each other and grow. It has a nice warm feeling! The women show understanding, emphathy and strength. They are supportive of each other especially against the mean moms but they also have "can do" attitude that I really like. The friendships don't take away from family time or the importance of family but rather weave family members into the story easily.

Yes, of course, there is the typical girl meets boy plot but it takes second place to friend ships formed. I've watched it twice now and really like the character development.

Don't miss this one, it's different and fun.

All the actors are phenomenal and charming but the storyline that should have been incredible falls short on screen. The dialogue and situations are so incredibly juvenile and seems more like it was written by and for middle school aged kids. This is not an adult rom com. From the pajama pants, to the "you like me," to the kicked out of the clique, to the eavesdropping moms. It's just one childish situation after another. The actors are great and I was so looked forward to this movie, but I caught myself on several occasions checking to make sure I hadn't wandered onto the Disney channel. This one is not a golden star.

Field Day is a charming Hallmark movie! The leads are lovely together, two of my favorites. Benjamin Ayers working at the school; Rachel Boston being roped into the PTA. You know they'll end up together, but it's fun seeing them get there! Some of my favorite scenes with Benjamin Ayers were 1) him spinning the basketball on his finger 2) him getting dunked in the dunk tank. And Rachel Boston's baby makes a cameo in the movie (awe). And the supporting actors! These ladies really steal the show. The girl friendships here are great fun to watch - and they seem to get as much screen time as the leads!

A fun and refreshing Hallmark movie, written by Julie Sherman Wolfe, about friendships, new beginnings, the ups and downs of PTO (parent teacher organization), family, and love... featuring some day drinking with the girls and a New Kids on the Block song ;)

Rachel Boston delivered a fun and sweet performance as the lead character. Matt Clarke, even if appearing a few minutes, delivered a poignant performance in a touching scene. Carmel Amit and Shannon Chan-Kent complete the unlikely trio of moms having to organize Field Day at school and it shows through the screen that the three ladies had fun shooting their scenes.

This Hallmark movie is unlike what we usually see as the friendship between the three ladies is out front and center, and not the love story between Boston's and Benjamin Ayres' characters.

This is a must watch if you are a Hallmark or rom-com fan.

I appreciated the nice try to propose more than familiar recipe of romance in Hallmark style. It is a film about friendship, motherhood, appearences, pretty realistic, decent crafted and charming for fine exploration of sensitive subjects. And for acting, not last.

The courage to reflect aspects of ordinary life, from the pijama pants to the try to be implied in daughter education in same measure than the husband, the memory of reposed husband as obstacle for happiness and as kick for new page of life, the work on social media compensanting inperfection from real life, the cake , the games, the pure friendship are just good points of this pretty surprising Hallmark who represents little more than dusty familiar Hallmark romance.
