Receita para o Amor

This movie was cute. The two leads are married in real life and have natural chemistry in screen. I've seen it 3 times. It's a funny movie.

Typical Hallmark movie. The softball team practiced and played a game without getting dirty. Just saying Hallmark at least try to make it authentic looking by having dirt on the uniforms.

This had nothing over and above the usual formula. I do appreciate Hallmarks efforts towards more diversity which this one exemplifies. I found the heroine too glammed up to be relatable or realistic for a hardworking chef in a kitchen. When will Hallmark learn that tarting up their actresses like they were selling cosmetics in a department store is not the way to go. The romance was not front and center which was actually refreshing. But Ironically, I didn't find the chemistry out of the ordinary considering the two leads are married in real life. The actress reminded me of Sandra Bullock but without her appeal and the actor reminded me of Topher Grace.

I enjoyed this movie very much. The chemistry between the main actors was great. Not forced as some Hallmark movies feel. Very cute storyline and not a super mushy movie, as most Hallmatk films seem to have. I loved also that the kids in the movie are worked into the main story. Not just there to meet demographics. Also the Hispanic diversity was done great. Again, not forced as Hallmark tends to do just to meet the demographics of adding a non-small causcian cast. Sweet movie with focus on food, which I always seem to enjoy.

Roselyn Sanchez is pretty and not the most likely Chef with her flowing locks. When a real life couple acts together it's a bit distracting from the story. She and Eric Winter make a nice on screen match. And they overcome the obstacle of the real life couple thing. She adds sparkle to whatever show she is in. The competing Chef thing is very bland.
