Amore in Alaska

We all struggle to overcome grief / step forward in life so this all-age-friendly movie is appropriate for everyone, whether you like coupledom or enjoy being single.

Simple story. Doctor returns to her home town to take over late uncle's medical practice. Her high school sweetheart has to work with her to restore the uncle's rundown clinic. The ex has PTSD from military service. That's the plot. To fill it out a little, there's a bachelor auction in conjunction with the town's promotion as a place to fall in love. There are no highs or lows or surprises.

The romantic relationship isn't worth the effort. The movie isn't horrible, it just isn't any good.

Plot -former redident returne to town to reopen her late uncle's medical practice. Her high school ex is in town too.

This was a Harlequin movie, but it was reminiscent of the Hallmark movie "Christmas Under Cover'" starring Candace Cameron Bure. Both female leads are doctors, and both arrive in Alaska totally underdressed for the weather. It's Alaska people, it's covered in snow, it's cold, costume departments (for both movies) put those people in coats, boots and mittens.

Ok, enough of that. I really enjoyed this movie. I have never seen eother of the leads in any movie, however they were awesome. Their chemistry was immediate and real. Victor Zinck Jr as Finn did a superb job of portraying a veteran suffering from PTSD, he did a great acting job. Sarah Podemski did an excellant job as Maggie. Supporting characters / actors were great too. Especially Joey Fatone as Hank, he was a hoot.

My advice; Watch this movie.

Beautiful scenery the lady doctor seems a little cold and the guy with PTSD really plays the part as if he experienced that trauma Should leave Joey Fatone out he is an awful actor .

The giddy woman Emma acts like a teenager so silly for a woman her age.

Spoilt by silly details.. who arrives in an Alaskan town as the new doctor in a mini dress and stiletto heels, with no coat?! Irritating lack of context which distracted from the storyline.
