All Summer Long

I think of using live scenes of the gg bridge and historic lombard street of san francisco but not actual film there is wrong. Please think of the series alcatrez and how much anger the show made for fans who went to sf and found out those locations did not exist.

This lame effort is saved by the appeal and the talents of the two stars, Autumn Reeser and Brennan Elliot. As always, their superior acting skills saved the day. They are very engaging with whomever they are paired with and it's about time they were paired together. I was not disappointed. i just wish they had been given a better vehicle worthy of their talents. And I got to say that "Admiral" character gave me the creeps for some reason. Also, a shout out to Christopher Russell, who played the romantic rival for Autumn's affection. He was her leading man in one of my very favorite Hallmark Romances, Midnight Masquerade.

I REALLY LIKED THIS MOVIE, LOVE THE BRENNAN ELLIOT & AUTUMN REESER. BUT CONSIDERING IT WAS FILMED IN CANADA, THEY SHOULD HAVE REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT THE SCENE WHERE "TIA" (AUTUMN) GOES TO SEE THE ADMIRAL AND THEY LOOK OUT THE WINDOW AT THE SHIPS. THAT SCENE IS THE ARIZONA MEMORIAL & USS MISSOURI, IN HONOLULU, HAWAII. I MEAN............REALLY.

BUT OTHER THAN THAT, LOVED THE MOVIE, MOST ALL HALLMARKS ARE GREAT, ANYWAY !!!

Trivia comments mention Mariners tickets and the film being in San Francisco, CA where the baseball team would be the Giants. Tia and her dad live in Seattle, WA based on the wide shot of The Space Needle just before she speaks to him about a leave of absence. When she was speaking with her Uncle Roland she mentioned flying down to see him, in San Francisco, based on those wide shots. Hence, Mariners season tickets for her dad in Seattle.

Good movie, good plot. Although typical Hallmark, but that's not a bad thing.

One thing I kept bumping into, Autumn Reeser looked ridiculous strutting around in the captain's uniform, no realism in her role as captain, there are some actresses who could pull off portraying a woman in a man's role, but it's not Autumn. Also there was no chemistry between Reeser and Elliottt.

In spite of the problems I noted above, great job was done by all. They managed to overcome the issues and were able to created a very watchable movie.

My advice: watch the movie, it's good family film,
