Un fidanzato per mamma

The story is a take on the common one where a child wants a boyfriend for mom. In this case there is a department store wish contest and Lily wins. Zach was the creator of the contest and sticks close to Emma during the early dating process. There is a brief meet-cute with no antagonistic period between the leads. Also thankfully there is no series of awkward dates which are usually more stupid than funny. There is really only one suitor via the contest setup. He seems charming, even perfect other than being obsessed with his cell phone. "Camera eats first."

Lilly and Emma are exceptionally close as mother and adopted daughter. Lilly is a bright and an appealing 10 year old and seems older. This is another case where the kid and the romantic opposite form a great relationship.

It is pretty obvious where the story going, but how that will play out isn't as obvious. That's done nicely.

The acting is good especially the mom/daughter relationship. The dialogue is good. There is good chemistry amongst the three playing Lilly, Emma, and Zach.

I liked the performance of. Jeannane Goossen ( against large and pretty fake- forced smile ), the decent use of so familiar letter of child for good of her parent, the ironic perspective about obsession of selfies and the not so bad portrait of Zach created by Zach Smadu. In rest , a perfect Ken -like created in decent - pretty forced, in few moments, by Anthony Bewlz,nice try for reasonable. Lily by Ai Barett and, maybe the good point of film, Connie Manfredi as Brit.

In essence, just enough for a film of genre, easy, superficial, cheesy and sweet to diabet dose.

Nothing original or real touching, predictable at whole and few some amusing moments.
