Opération romance

Can't remember the last time I saw a movie this bad, but I'll try to be charitable.

I thought the cast did the best job they could with the awful script they were given. Whoever did the score seemed like they were trying to sabotage what little atmosphere each of the scenes had. Got a few laughs, although not for the right reasons.

On the plus side, I guess the camera person had steady hands?

Why would a person, in support of a community garden, think that the benefits to the community come close to being more important than affordable housing. Shelter vs. The benefits of mental well-being of working the soil. A nonstarter for me. Next, an engaged couple so divergent on family & location vs job opportunities should not have left this insurmountable divergence till 2 days before the wedding to disengage. Or are they simply stupid? If being with friends & family/location is more important than being with an ambitious partner, than a few dates should point out the incompatibility of the relationship. Again, stupid?? The bridesmaid & groomsman did not concentrate on the issues separating the couple, but on rekindling the couple's spark. Not smart!! Concentrate on the dealbreakers early and new relationships can be nipped in the bud.

My wife and I love the B grade Rom com movies like this but this one actually surpassed our expectations by quite a bit! Good writing, really well acted and very very sweet! Good chemistry between the main characters and certainly a level above what you would expect from this kind of Movie. It's still a basic Rom com it's not up to the A-grade level of Notting Hill, Love Actually or anything like that, but it was really nice and well worth a watch. At the start we just thought it was going to be another standard Rom com and we just decided to watch it and see, but it turned out to be quite a bit better than we expected.

First of all, the garden story was already done in True Love Blooms. Secondly, the leading lady was annoyingly determined to hate this guy, even though he was very nice to her. And, thirdly, the other couple's problem just goes to show that you two need to be on the same page about your future, long before you get engaged.

This movie is fine, especially considering filmed during the pandemic, but two things make it less rewatchable for me: 1) the plot is a mix of too many others I watch a lot 2) whilst I do like the relaxed feel to many scenes, it is sometimes shattered with upbeat pop tracks.
