Over the Moon in Love

This Hallmark romance was written by its star, Jessica Lowndes, and she deserves credit for that. In her story, she plays Brooklyn Moore, a matchmaker with an unerring talent for creating lasting couples. But somehow she has been unable to find love herself.

When Devin (Wes Brown), a former best friend, comes back into her life, he draws the attention of her most important client. Brooklyn's involvement in their courtship is reminiscent of "Cyrano", but it plays out in a less romantic way. Indeed, it is somewhat cringe-worthy, because viewers want to see true romance blossom.

Though Lowndes has created a role nearly perfect for herself and her vocal talents, the lack of chemistry between the primaries leaves this story far short of the moon.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie even though I have seen similar basic storylines. The casting was spot on! There isn't anything specific about why the two didn't reach out to each other in the past 12 years - career, in Europe, that type of vague reasoning - but hey! Timing is everything. I loved the main characters, the secondary couple as well as Brooklyn's parents. The lip syncing at the end could have been better but kudos to Jessica Lowndes for all she did on this movie. Captivating! James Welch Henderson Arkansas 5/16/2021.

Mainly, I really like the two leads, Jessica Lowndes and Wes Brown. What bothered me was the part played by Miranda Frigon. She looks too old for him and it kept bothering me. It's a silly story anyway! But Lowndes and Brown made it worth watching.

My wife and I enjoy Hallmark movies for light entertainment, because they are made for TV they each are about 82 or 83 minutes long and feature attractive actors in feel-good stories.

Here old friends went their separate ways 12 years earlier. He to pursue his singing and songwriting career, she to form a matchmaking business that has a 100% success rate. She has some sort of unexplained mystical way of telling when two people are perfect for each other.

After 12 years he returns and looks her up because she was the only one he ever loved but has a hard time telling her that, afraid to ruin the friendship.

Everyone! It's a Hallmark movie, we all know how it will turn out, the fun is seeing how it gets there.
