Un appartamento per due

I like Hallmark movies but I'm getting tired of the main female character being a witch with a chip on her shoulder. Why does Hallmark think all women are like that?

A nice, easy going Hallmark film, with it nice to see some different faces in the line-up also.

Yes, there's a lot of bickering between the two main characters, but other than that I enjoyed this.

You're never gonna get too much deviation from a typical Hallmark storyline - past relationship, running away, death of a loved one, misunderstanding etc. This one had a novel twist of Julie Gonzalo & Tyler Haynes as past lovers, doing up one side each of a duplex, which first becomes fiercely competitive between the two and then becomes National as a magazine gets people to vote which property is now the best. Both leads were good in this role although Julie's character is a bit oversensitive. Pretty good.

Say what you will about Hallmark movies, but their pattern to love is consistent: one person is usually snarky, they may have known each other "in the past," they are on competing sides, they may have broken up with a recent beau, etc. The fun take in this version is the "Love it or Leave it" (HDTV) feel between the two characters. The banter is not much unlike the "Property Brothers" as well. The two protagonists as house renovators was a welcomed new theme. It was also nice to see Cardi Wong play a BFF to one of the main characters for a change.

Flip This Romance is showing as I write this and is not even over yet and I am loving it! The two main characters are working together perfectly. Lots of good humor along with fun competiton between two old friends who have become public rivals in the house flipping field. Gotta watch this one!
