Amore alla moda

You just can't watch anything any than these good for the whole family movies. Great family watching no Foul language no Sex scenes no Nudity just don't get any better than this. Yes I Highly recommend this Family friendly show. James Welch Henderson Arkansas. 7/26/2022.

This movie is quite original, but some cast members' lines became too quiet / unclear at times, so I tuned out on multiple scenes. I wish Reel One Entertainment and others would make more movies about over 40s as it would allow for a wider range of storylines, and viewers will grow out of these early career settings too quickly - I'm not gonna buy them because they don't have much rewatchability / longevity. The characters in this movie aren't particularly inspiring - but I do empathise a bit as they're just trying to make the best of a chaotic world like many of us. Not the best, but not the worst of the genre.

What is with the narrative explaining everything that is happening? Did you think as an audience we aren't smart enough to follow the story. Very annoying and so not necessary.

Lighting is not balanced throughout the film. Almost every scene renders some cast members into practically different people, especially Allie and Marie. Often I could not tell if I were looking at the same people. Some cast even seemed to gain and lose substantial amounts of weight from one scene to another, while beauty varied from common to exquisite.

Too bad: because despite starting with a near-impossible plot catalyst, the script and acting are actually quite good, the characters are interesting, and the action flow holds the attention.

The lighting quality did improve as the film progressed. I would watch it again.

This is a Hallmark movie, so I expect the light vibe. I don't mind at all. But sadly, since the story is about fashion industry, I really hope they take the theme and setting seriously... which they don't. Since the blah sweatpants show up, I know it's gonna be a disaster. And my my, I hate when I'm right. Why can't they contact a fashion designer or a stylist for this movie? So we can have a proper fashion for this. Instead, I have to see ugly stuff parading here and there. And not even an edgy style. Just Amazon-bought stuff that makes me hate this movie even more. I regret watching this. Sorry~
