A Frosty Affair

Was feeling under the weather and selected this movie for light-hearted entertainment. Shawn Roberts shines as the lead and Jewel had some funny moments. Good movie, gorgeous scenery and easy story. warm up some cocoa and slip into a cheerful little film.

(Some spoilers but nothing major) When you sit down for a movie like this, you know what to expect. Saccharine sweetness that makes you want to roll your eyes but sometimes these movies surprise you so, like me, you remain ever hopeful. Unfortunately the biggest problem in this movie is Kate. Annoying Kate who thinks she knows everything. Invites herself to go on this journey with Redford and then is absolutely NOT helpful at all. Nearly sets the barn on fire, attracts a bear to their belongings because of course she doesn't listen to him. She can do it all, but does she help carry anything along the way? Nope. Does she listen to him about the ice? Not even a little bit.

This movie would have been tolerable if Kate had been a better person.

It is what it is - unrealistic, overplayed (clearly a director's choice of tone) and a waste of talent. Jewel Staite and Shaun Johnston can handle meatier roles. But Shawn Roberts is definitely gorgeous. The Canadian landscape is also pretty remarkable. This is typical RomCom fare these days. I give this film a 6 (fait) out of 10. {RomCom}

I usually stay way from movies that have the word affair in it but i ended up watching it. It's a good storyline with a nice ending.. The location was just beautiful also and the acting was great. Good job, i'll give this a 9 if your into the rom-com genre this is for you!

Bad script, bad acting but a great scene with a bear.
