Amore a discesa libera

Obvious stunt double for downhill skiing. Should have done the same for cross-country or at least get someone to show them how it's done.

Justin is going home for a championship, it's his "comeback" after an injury which kept him out of the slopes for a year. Kayla, his childhood best friend, is there. She finds herself agreeing to be his coach for this race.

I don't know. It was hard at first to get into it, which maybe had to do with Charlotte Sullivan, I kept thinking where I knew her from and then her face: is it make up? is it her face? If so, she could use a little bit of tan. It was so distracting. I haven't seen Trevor Donovan in much movies but I apparently like him. I enjoyed his performance and apparently he can skii? Anyway, these two had a good dynamic, they told us they were childhood friends and I believe it.

I was pleasantly surprised at minute 43. I did not see that coming so soon. We always expect the big revelation in the final minutes, not half an hour before the ending, I was caught off guard, so points for that.

Fun fact: Around minute 53 we can see a man with a mask standing in the middle of the snow. If you ask me, he was part of the crew. I jut found it funny.

To sum up: we have friends-to-lovers combined with sports. It's a good combination, it worked. It didn't make me smile like other movies had, and I kept being distracted but it's not a bad movie. I'm also satisfied with the ending. I thought they might go in the same direction as always (you know which one) but they managed to avoid it. So, good.

A very nice winter movie to watch! If you love skying, snow and Trevor Donovan then you will surely love it. The story was nice, the acting was good, the scenery amazing, the editing and the music very good. I found Trevor Donovan was charming, so good for the eyes..... and his acting was sweet, realistic enough without any exaggerations and he stayed related to the character of Justin. I found their chemistry a bit weak.... i mean Trevor with Sharlotte Sullivan as Kayla, but the thing is that this woman has something so cold in her acting, blunt i would say that makes difficult to see her emotions (although i loved her in Rookie Blue) even with Trevor's efforts! Worth watching!

I love Trevor Donovan, I watched quite a few of his movies, even his parts as Teddy Montgomery. I have to say he had the least amount of chemistry with Charlotte Sullivan. To be honest I don't know how good actor he is in reality as his characters don't really have a lot of depth, it's enough that he looks dashing, but Charlotte is just so wooden in this one This movie felt like they were not really there, just kinda "let's do another Hallmark movie". Their "romance" was not believable, no sparks, nothing. I frequently found myself checking my phone as it was boring. I'm sorry Trevor but I want to see you playing something else now. 4 stars for the scenery.

Trevor Donovan's character seemed to be made the weak one. The chemistry with Kayla was lacking and stressed. Same with her unattractive sister and the unconfident "doctor". I am a skier and was really looking forward to a competitive, romantic banter with this Hallmark movie. Beautiful scenery though!!!
