Pairing Lacey Chabert - the undisputed and reigning Queen of Hallmark - with Brennan Elliott has generally been akin to hitting the mother lode for Hallmark (think the "All of My Heart" trilogy, "A Christmas Melody" and a handful of "Crossword Mystery" movies as well) and I had high hopes that "His & Hers" would continue the success that this duo has when starring opposite one another. Alas, the story of a husband and wife lawyers on either side of the divorce of a high profile reality TV couple fell flat for me. As noted, Chabert and Elliott play a married couple...but their interactions seem almost more businesslike than anything else. Would it have killed them to show some real passion? I didn't see any chemistry there, which isn't something I often say about films starring that duo.
Ultimately, one you can put down in the "Missed Opportunity" file for Hallmark.

It's not the best movie that Lacey has ever done, but I wouldn't watch it again. It was very boring at times and predictable. Halfway through it was just something on in the background while I was on my phone. I hope the next few fall movies are better.
The chemistry just wasn't there this time between Lacey and Brennan. They were great in the All of my Heart movies. I'd watch those again over this. It's almost like this movie wasn't taking itself seriously. I think being married and also lawyers wasn't the best idea. I could see one of them being a lawyer and the other one supporting them. But, yeah, not for me.

This is a very light hearted offering that almost seems like it is not taking itself seriously. I wondered at times if there was some parody, but I wasn't sure of what. Married professionals? Reality stars? I can't imagine why everyone wanted them to oppose one another in the case because it didn't seem healthy for either couple to have Dana and Mark as opposing counsel. So many things seemed even more unrealistic than you come to expect in this genre.
Chabert and Elliot did look like their characters had been married awhile, especially their kisses. They kissed like "an old married couple" with a glancing peck. Not like stories where a couple is having a first kiss and each goes in with vigor and ... tongues.
I wondered where the story was going and definitely did not see that one coming despite the clues. It didn't seem like any great highs or lows or even tension until ... Surprise!

I generally love Lacey and Brennan, but the two other divorcing characters made this unwatchable. They were too cartoonish and ridiculous.
And pushing to have a baby? I know couples are having babies at older ages, but Lacey is 42, Brennan is 49, so the baby issue didn't ring true. Viewers can tell how old these people are, stop trying to make us believe a 40+ actors is 30.
I realize Reality Stars may be over the top in their personalities, but the two in this movie farcical and bore no resemblance to real people.
Hallmark needs to use younger actors if part of the plot is about having children. Nothing about this movie was entertaining, and I couldn't make it to the end.

6.6 stars.
This movie does not feel like a Hallmark movie. The music, the interactions, the storyline, everything is different. The romance does not exist, it's a movie about a married couple. They are both hotshot lawyers in New York City. They work at different law firms. They happen to land the same case on opposite sides. This particular case might be what causes their marriage to fall apart. That's the premise.
As the case continues and things get heated, they begin to see reasons why their marriage might not be as pristine as they thought. They are both secretive and uncharacteristically evasive with each other more and more. They are both under pressure by their superiors to win the case. But someone has to lose.
The leads always have great chemistry, but it's difficult to see past this strange storyline to enjoy their quirky and familiar interactions.

Lawyers Mark (Brennan Elliott) and Dana (Lacey Chabert) are the perfect married couple until they find themselves on opposite sides of a highly public divorce case involving a warring reality show couple. The couple's clients, are combative, materialistic egomaniacs who make unreasonable demands on their lawyers. The stress impacts the happily married lawyer couple, and to help keep the viewer awake from all the boring dialogue, another element is added, Mark starts pressuring Dana that it's time to have a baby. All the tension impacts the couples happy marriage. Instead of an intriguing fun movie in the vein of ADAM'S RIB, the viewer is just plain BORED as the movie DRAGS on and on as the viewer anxiously waits for this movie to JUST COME TO AN EXPECTED END!
I love Lacey Chabert and Brennan Elliott. I particularly like them together as they have wonderful chemistry and seem to play off one another well.
The story follows two married lawyers, Dana and Mark, who are simultaneously assigned high profile clients while celebrating their own seven year anniversary. Normally, Mark handles domestic disputes and Dana handles corporate mergers, but they both end up on opposite sides of a reality tv couple's divorce (Tabby and Brett). Dana is doing a favor for her uncle Paul and initially thinks everything will be smooth sailing until it's clear neither Tabby nor Brett are going to give an inch...they also unwisely do not listen to their respective council. On the home front, not only are Dana and Mark celebrating their seventh wedding anniversary, but they are discussing the possibility of starting a family.
It was nice to see a healthy and supportive relationship as the one exhibited between Dana and Mark. They knew each other well and they treated each other with love and respect. Most importantly, they listened to one another. There was humor and love...and a fun wardrobe. I think romantics will love this Hallmark offering and I recommend it. There is some great dialogue and funny humor.

Sort of a knock off of Adam's Rib but alas not as good. Husband and wife lawyers represent dueling sides in a highly publicized divorce case. I am in the minority of Hallmark Movie fans in that I do not love Lacey Chalbert and have no investment in the perpetual coupling with Brennan Elliott. The dialogue is sappy (who would say "sustained" when toasting their anniversary? Or refer to anything in their personal life as "on the docket"?). The plot runs the predictable course - workaholic couple rediscovers their true love through trials and tribulation. It made me long for the snappy dialogue and quality acting of Adam's Rib. Is it watcheable? Yes. It is good. No.
