Mezzanotte al Magnolia

Midnight at the Magnolia is a 2020 comedy romance film. Longtime friends and local radio hosts Maggie and Jack fake it as a couple. It's not your normal romance film but it was still good. A lovely light heated comedy romance to watch, little predictable in places but it's still very enjoyable to watch. The acting was good and Evan Williams and Natalie Hall played the characters well and made it believable. I quite enjoyed it I know it's a Christmas film and I'm watching it in January but I fancied watching something light heated and it certainly put a smile on my face. This movie is perfect for a Sunday afternoon in front of the fire with nice cup of hot chocolate. It's currently streaming on Netflix right now so give it a watch.

The writing was good, the actors (most of them) are talented, the leads have chemistry but then......it fizzles. Who's fault is it when that happens? Director?

The story is interesting enough to get you through to the cute ending but it leaves you with the feeling it could have been much better.

My son told me he was watching this so I decided to watch it too. I'm not sure i would of picked it otherwise but im happy I watched it.

I thought it was a really good movie. Sweet and a nice feel good to it.

The leads and cast were great too. Although it was set after Christmas day, it was still festive enough.

This is number 36 out of 100 for my 100 Christmas movies before Christmas day challenge with 45 days to go. Can I do this challenge?

This is a good movie and I will watch this again.

This one wasn't terrible, but it wasn't the best, either. It has a pet-peeve of mine: forced love story. I was shocked when Quinn admitted she has been in love with Jack for her whole life. (Not a spoiler, it's obvious.) She didn't seem in love with him at all. This movie thought it could use words and that would register in our minds as chemistry. It doesn't work like that. As for this whole radio show thing, what even..? Who on earth would be interested in a meet the parents segment... ON NYE? Not I, said the cat.

The acting coming from the side characters is horrendous. When they made an announcement that was supposedly really big, the wows coming from the family was not convincing at all.

As for the positives, I thought that Jack was a model love interest for these types of films. He wasn't a deplorable male character just there for staring at, I actually thought he was an okay guy. I have more to say on this film, but I believe I don't have much more description for it. I say just watch it for yourself and see If you like it.

A romantic Christmas comedy. It's about the best friends who have a radio show and in it they talk about how difficult it is to introduce their partners to their families, so they decide to make it massive because of publicity, but everything goes wrong when they don't accept and decide to pretend they are a couple. Entertaining A movie for television. Performances that are good. Organic jokes that are more focused on an audience in their thirties, as well as the main characters are seen very everyday. The leading couple have chemistry on screen. Talk about expressing how we feel to the person we love. Nice Sunday.
