Mon amour de colo

Overall this is a slightly above-average Hallmark movies, with likable characters, great scenery (with British Columbia standing in for Northern Oregon), some nice scenes of the camp and its buildings & grounds, and no annoying supporting characters (except for Shoreman, who was supposed to be the heavy).

I only wish they had shown more of the actors who played the younger versions of the adult characters, but alas they are only seen for the first few minutes of the film. A few more scenes of them together, especially of the two leads, would have fleshed things out a little more.

The younger actors did a good job in playing the characters as teenagers. Overall, the film would have been better served by showing the chemistry between the leads was really genuine had they had more screen time.

Bonjour,

The said Goof: (The actress who plays Zoe as a teenager is taller than the actress who plays the character as an adult) is not a goof.

At 8-12 years old, girls are often taller than boys.

At ±15 years old, girls stop growing up. Feminine hormones result.

At ±15 years old, boys continue to grow up until ±19 years old.

Voilà ! This is why Luke is taller at 30 years old.

Merci de votre attention,

TO FILL THE SPACES : A boy and a girl fall in love during summer camp and promise to stay in touch, but they don't. Fifteen years later they meet again in the same camp under very different circumstances. What will happen to the camp and will they try again?

Look, the movie didn't change my life. It didn't have a story line that blew my mind, and the acting isn't genius. With that said, I still gave it 5 stars because I thought it worth watching. It wasn't bad and it is a good movie to watch if you don't want a movie that is all about explosions, manipulation, and all the other garbage. Good, wholesome, and the actors are cute and fun to watch. If you like Hallmark movies you will like this one. James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 1/13/2021

This Hallmark Channel TV movie about two kids who had a summer camp romance and in some ways moved on, but in other ways did not is a pretty good romantic comedy for the channel. It is strengthened by some nice photography of the woods-and-lake scenery around the camp and by a change from the usual way that the characters are handled. Like most of them, he's a bit goofy, but successful in the world with a wide streak of philanthropy that leads him to rescue the failing camp where he first met her; she is trying to buy the property for development, but is not the usual brittle-but-ready-to-fall damsel that populates most of these Hallmark romcoms.

The plot line, including the message that we must accept our pasts and not move on, but build from them, is fairly well foreshadowed early on, but it's all very pleasantly executed and if you have any taste for this sort of movie, you'll have a fine time.
