Branching Out

The script isn't perfect, but the general plot is good, not normal for Hallmark but a refreshing change, it's real life. Artificial insemination is a reality, kids want to know about their parents and family, if they don't get answers when they're young they'll search for them as an adult. DNA isn't just a law enforcement tool, it's available in limited ways to the public.

Well casted with Juan Pablo Di Pace, Sarah Drew and Cora Bella. The supporting cast was good, I especially enjoyed T. J.'s (Di Pace) extended family and all the different personalities. Ruby loves it (Bella) and Amelia (Drew) warms to them slowly. Beautiful filming location in Utah.

I knew that when I saw the commercial. It was a movie that I needed to watch. Even if I had to record it and watch it later. I loved that it was something a lil different than what I'm used to watching on Hallmark. DNA. It's usually just about 2 people who fall in love. But I loved the story line. Of finding out who you are and where you come from. Kids wondering where they come from. You don't see a lot of movies like this. Obviously it's Hallmark. So people fall in love. But it was more than just about 2 people. Great songs throughout the movie too. I'm hoping to find out more info on the music used in the movie. It is definitely a good watch!

Honestly, I wasn't sure what to expect after reading the movie's description, but the storyline turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The film does a great job focusing on the theme of family growth, even in the face of unexpected circumstances, and beautifully highlights how challenges can bring people closer together. While there are a few unrealistic elements-something common in most romance films-Hallmark manages to make it work, and it doesn't detract from the overall charm of the story. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and recommend it for anyone looking for a feel-good movie to enjoy and relax.

We watch a lot of Hallmark movies and enjoy them. But they are formualmatic. And if something works let it go and keep doing it. We know it will be family friendly and entertaining. Good enough.

Branching Out is typical Hallmark. But this time we find a family tree that is hidden. As the protagonist finds the Cruz family so do we. Despite Mama Cru, over acting the main characters are excellent. They are actually believable. The writing feeds Ruby's abilities which appears to be many.

The love interest actually makes sense and the problems of them being together are real.

If only the last scene wasn't so typical.

I really enjoyed this movie from start to finish.

What a great story line n wonderful characters who really looked like they were family.

It was a believable story n relationship problems felt so real.

Ruby is so cute n adorable, very talented for her age.

She was so natural n very funny too.

Loved the male character n he could really sing!

Loved the songs in this movie so many of them.

The farm setting was beautiful as well as the entire loving Cruz family.

The friend was very caring n loved her advice.

Loved how no one forced anyone to do anything but gave space to come together.

The ending was perfect 👌
