Field Day

I loved this movie. The three main characters have great chemistry. Yes at times it can be a bit cheesy - but I think all Hallmark movies can be. I enjoyed the women navigating real life struggles. For a few hours it is nice to be taken up into a story with a happy ending. It is funny that another reviewer wished they could have the 2 hours back they put into the movie. I usually can tell right away if I am into a story. This movie came on at the perfect time for me - I so enjoyed watching the interaction of the characters. I laughed and particularly enjoy Rachel Boston . I would even like to see a sequel to this movie and see the three women have another adventure together.

I appreciated the nice try to propose more than familiar recipe of romance in Hallmark style. It is a film about friendship, motherhood, appearences, pretty realistic, decent crafted and charming for fine exploration of sensitive subjects. And for acting, not last.

The courage to reflect aspects of ordinary life, from the pijama pants to the try to be implied in daughter education in same measure than the husband, the memory of reposed husband as obstacle for happiness and as kick for new page of life, the work on social media compensanting inperfection from real life, the cake , the games, the pure friendship are just good points of this pretty surprising Hallmark who represents little more than dusty familiar Hallmark romance.

I found the Hallmark movie "Field Day" to be a sweet and funny movie, full of friendships, grieving and love. It was a nice spin on Hallmark's normalcy's. With lessons in loss and love. Love that also included seeing the special relationships that come from the love from friendships. Funny bits along the way that included life lessons. It was nice to see a movie where you have kind female friend groups. Friends that except each other for their flaws and don't give up on each other. Recognizing that If your circle is not clapping for you, find a different circle. I found the movie to be simply delightful.

All the actors are phenomenal and charming but the storyline that should have been incredible falls short on screen. The dialogue and situations are so incredibly juvenile and seems more like it was written by and for middle school aged kids. This is not an adult rom com. From the pajama pants, to the "you like me," to the kicked out of the clique, to the eavesdropping moms. It's just one childish situation after another. The actors are great and I was so looked forward to this movie, but I caught myself on several occasions checking to make sure I hadn't wandered onto the Disney channel. This one is not a golden star.

I just cringed at most of this movie. The plot and dialogue seem like a show on the Disney channel aimed at 13-year olds. The premise looked promising, but fell flat. The characters were annoying stereotypes. The love interest was okay at best. The antics were predictable and grossly unrealistic. Over all, it failed to make the viewer care about any of the characters or their relationships. There were a couple funny or thought-provoking one-liners, but far too few to make this a film i'd recommend. It failed to capture the charm of the genre. If you are absolutely bored and just want to pass the time. . .
