Two Tickets to Paradise

Another storyline from Hallmark I haven't seen before.

Also another Hallmark movie where I couldn't guess the ending. Watched till the end.

Great scenery-loved the location. Got the true island feel.

Ryan Paevey brought his usual natural approach to his character while Ashley Williams seemed a bit over the top in some scenes.

Chemistry had more a friend vibe than romantic.

Also enjoyed the scenes with the newly married gay couple. I'm friends with people like that couple. They're fun to be around. Thank you, Hallmark for including them.

And lastly, Hallmark has to give Ryan Paevey a sequel movie or show starring his character in this movie.

Everything about this movie (with the exception of the condensed 1.5hr shrink of a good story for advertisements added).

Story, actors, director, setting -all were quite perfect. Have not truly enjoyed the comedy, the great chemistry between all the actors, the real enjoyment watching a good full length movie can bring. Hallmark is not known for this-but all is good here... Caveat again:, It was too short.

Ryan and Ashley clicked. Their comedic timing was perfect . Their supporting cast was perfect as well... enjoyable to connect with, "real" people .

Fans calling for a sequel are serious. This is the best "feel good" movie I have seen in years... We fans need: More surfing, snorkeling, and the beauty of Hawaii.

Loved it. Please repeat the good feels.

I looked forward to this movie. Ashley Williams always brings something special to the screen in energy and joy. Ryan Paevey is also always a sure thing. The premise of both-stood-up and go-on-the-honeymoon-anyway sounded like a good one. Even a little unusual. And for the most part, my expectations were met with a but.

Near the end someone says something like "I'm not sure what I think about that." Well that's how I feel about the messages the characters were saying toward the end of the movie. These Hallmark movies and their clones have messages. They may not always be deeply profound, but there are messages. In this movie, I think they were confused and possibly even contradictory.

There was chemistry between Williams and Paevey. But there were some little disconnects also, intentional ones. There were a lot of funny lines and situations. There was a lot of breathtaking scenery.

I Tweeted during the movie: Dear Hallmarkchannel, please make text messages bigger, at least twice as big. Hannah was laughing at a series of them and I never got the joke because even with rewind and pause, I couldn't read them all. That is so frustrating.

Perhaps next time I watch this in a year or so, it will make more sense, but despite some good fun, the feeling I was left with was confusion.

Hannah Holt (Ashley Williams) and Josh Wyatt (Ryan Paevey) are both dumped on their wedding days. They happen to meet soon after and are thrust together by coincidences time and again until they coincidentally find themselves staying at the same Hawaiian hotel. Having shared the same fate, they commiserate. The chemistry between these two is good, and individually the two characters are very likable.

Since this is a Hallmark romance, the eventual ending is no surprise, but the journey getting there is filled with spectacular Hawaiian scenery and lighthearted fun.

Watch for Kimee Balmilero who plays the part of the spunky hotel employee, Kailani, adding energy to her scenes and serving as an unofficial Hawaiian ambassador. The island of Oahu looks so inviting. Anyone for shave ice?

Fun Summer Nights movie with a great cast dynamic -definitely thought Ashley and Ryan had a fun and enjoyable chemistry. I wouldn't mind seeing both of them together again in future Hallmark movies.
