I expected more

This was a very hard movie to watch, the acting was really bad and it was boring. I really wanted to like it, finally some diversity, but they just didn't have great actors or plot.

No chemistry, stiff acting.

There was no chemistry between the leads. The lead female's acting was very stiff. As to the story - as with all Hallmark movies very predictable. I don't quite understand the need for the younger sister to be a character in this movie, she really didn't add anything to the story. This would not be a movie I'd watch again.

Rough around the edges

As cheesy and predictable as you'd imagine.

There are worse Christmas TV films out there, but 'A Gingerbread Romance' fails to entertain even by the smallest of margins. It's all just rough around the edges, particularly with the editing and pacing.

Duane Henry (Adam) and Tia Mowry (Taylor) lead competently, with both of them having likeable qualities and giving alright performances - they just needed more chemistry together to take it up a notch. The rest of the cast are kinda poor, though most only have one or two lines to be fair.

I partly like the premise involving the creation of gingerbread houses, but it's nowhere near compelling - with Adam & Taylor's supposed rivals barely troubling them, so the story lacks any real acceleration. It's just a simple romance spread across 90 minutes.

It just doesn't work

It's not really the fault of the leads, it's the attempt to pretend the pregnancy doesn't exist. This isn't as bad as Jen Lilley in: Paris, Wine and Romance 2019 (she looked like a small child in large adult clothes), but it's close. Trying to hide the pregnancy with clothes, never works. And I think the actors are too aware of the pregnancy, so they come off a bit stiff and uncomfortable.

Now, if they would incorporate the pregnancy into the movie, that could work. Yes, I am suggesting a pregnant woman finds love with a man who is not the father of her child. Perhaps she is divorced or widowed, she doesn't have to be... "loose". :D In that story, the actors could feel more natural because they wouldn't be trying to pretend there is no baby, while trying to not squish the baby when they hug/kiss. :D.

Wish this was better...

The child actress who played Brooke was the shining light of this movie and the reason I gave this a 5. She was sweet, adorable and believable and gave a good performance. Too bad the adult leads weren't as good. Their performances were awkward and unbelievable. Would better direction have helped?

The script was very weak - it needed more dramatic tension for a better pay-off at the end. My overall reaction at the so-called climax was "Who cares?"

A lot of work goes into these productions so it's disappointing to see such a mediocre outcome.
