Okey so this movie isn't very convincing. The snow is fake and you know from the start that it's gonna be a happy ending. But that is what I like about it! It is just like a Disney movie in a way, you know that things might get tough in the middle but they always solve the problems in the end. I think it is.. cute! And the fake snow and the scenery is a very important part of that. And what really makes my heart melt is the cute duet by Tanya Hacheroff and Cameron Grant they play when Ronnie & Julie are sooo in love..
And sure I can see why men who need action and shooting in all movies doesnt like it but I know that I will watch this movie the day before x-mas year after year after year!

I rarely ever write reviews for movies but I feel this movie deserves a review. I love this movie, it is such a great movie. SO romantic and no, I don't mean in a teenage sort of way. Anyone at any age would find this movie romantic. Julie (Margot Finley) is so beautiful in the movie and Ronnie (Joshua Jackson) is so adorable. Willa (Alexandra Purvis) is sooo cute in this movie. She steals the show in every scene she is in and she reminds so much of my cousin who is younger then me. I love the whole figure skating part of the movie. The hockey playing part was okay, I don't particularly care for hockey, but it was alright. My favourite scene in particular was the scene when Ronnie and Julie were kissing in the snow.
One of the highlights of the movie was the song. "Something Happened to My Heart." It was one of the most beautiful romantic ballads I've ever heard. I don't understand why the singers of the song didn't become more famous. Maybe they were contracted to do the song for the movie and that was it.
In any case, this is a wonderful movie, no violence, sex or anything offensive. You can watch it with the whole family. I highly recommend it.
I give it 10/10.

The idea is not to get side tracked by indifferent reviews. A review needs to be truthful and not a journey to the past epitomizing the original, then it does not do justice to a work of art. Ronnie and Julie is a version using the Old Master's plot, but departing from the tragedy to the happy ending. That is what Dream Merchants are for. All in all, very enjoyable
This is an extremely under-rated masterpiece. It is because of this movie I wanted to learn more about Shakespeare and Romeo & Juliet. It's funny and incredibly romantic.Romeo (Josh Jackson) instead of being sad, dark, and frankly depressing; he is a witty, sweet, HOT, hokey player. Also Juliet (Margo Finley)is a cute also sweet figure skater.I completely fell in love with this movie ever since I first saw it. And girls who have even only heard of Josh Jackson, this movie will make you want to marry him and have 1000 of his babys.I pray that this comes on again so those who have not had the honor of seeing this classic will and love it to no end. Yes, this is definatly Shakespeare at his best.
According to the description, it's a modern day adaptation of romeo and juliet. Josh jackson, margot finley as romeo and juliet fall in love on the ice. While their parents are fighting for votes in the local election. The usual misunderstandings, mis-communications. Keep an eye out for teri garr as ronnie's mom, liz. Ups, downs. Not to give away any spoilers, but there's a very large departure from the original story. As i said, this is very family friendly, so a whole new ending. Shakespeare is spinning. Distributed by hallmark entertainment, so it's very, very family friendly. Sugary sweet. Every now and then they play a couple measures of the theme from the original r and j by tchaikovsky. Directed by philip spink. Modern adaptation by richard clark, larry sugar.
