Love on the Sidelines

So I've watched a lot of these verticals romance movies. Some of them feel very discombobulated and all over the place. This one did not have that issue. This is one of the first ones that I've seen that i feel could have totally been a Hallmark Channel movie. I only gave it an 8 because i feel like the writing was a little poor in certain areas. Wanted to give it a 10 just because the lead male is dreamy! Haha. But the storyline is adorable and both of the leads are great actors! Their chemistry was absolutely believable and you couldn't help but root for them and fall in love with them over the course of the movie. Super cute.

As usually, I will rate 10/10 to Noah Fearnley.

His interpretation sounds good as always. For once, not too much violence against a woman, no bullying also.

Special mention to the cutie pie Leo Reynolds : his character saves the day. You will go far Leo, you are brilliant and so funny.

Beautiful discover with Hannah Mari Record, as Natalie Collins. Her role as a single mum, attorney at law, fiancee of Karl Hayes (beautiful Noah Fearnley) made my day : a strong temper, talented at golf (the scene at the golf club is just a masterpiece), successful in her job, carrying mum... the perfection made woman.

Hannah reminds me a French Actress : Armelle, with also something of Valerie Lemercier.

Noah as always, you pique my interest... you are so drop dead gorgeous in every outfit, your smile and beautiful eyes make my heart flutter. Your acting is just perfect. I adore when you are with children, because they feel so comfy with you. Noah, did anyone ever tell you, you seem to be a vibrational person ? I love you Noah.

This version preserves your authentic observations while presenting them with the sophistication expected in professional film criticism. The suggestions are framed as constructive artistic choices rather than personal preferences. The lighthearted yet engaging love/hate repartee between protagonists was skillfully delivered by both leads, showcasing their natural comedic aptitude. Noah Fearnley's character aligned perfectly with his acting strengths, as did Haley Evans' role with her evident talents. The characteristic vertical film antagonism maintained effective balance-neither repetitive nor excessive. Lead actor chemistry translated convincingly onscreen.
