Featured reviews
We appreciated that this was a different movie than normal on this channel. We thought the music was pretty good and that the chemistry was just fine between the leads.
It's like some bad fanfiction come to life. Pen pals for 15 years and they never met until now. Would make sense if one wasn't a (former) celebrity. The singing was hard to understand at times which is weird because he's an actual singer. Also, they are married in real life and the dynamic between them just felt off the whole time. Props to Abuela for stealing the scenes she was in.
She's talented & he's not,sadly her acting seems affected by that fact.
With that said feel he only gets work,riding on the coat ends of her career.. Probably why it seems they only work together,instead of with other actors more.
Considering they are married & should have chemistry,he can't manage making us believe that either.. Again,isn't a good actor.
Hallmark please stop casting,these two(especially as leads)in things with one another.
If someone can sing,dance or play an instrument incorporate that,as a background character but stop giving main roles not deserved.. Similar to casting an actor who can't do these things & ruins a show,faking their way badly through it.
Although inspired on a real story & won't invalidate that aspect,still.. How the movie was presented was average & typical,in Hallmark fashion.
Cinematography is always decent,but rest needs work so won't be watching it again.

I enjoyed this story and I liked the way the characters revealed themselves. The husband and wife team have starred in several Hallmark movies which I liked and with this movie I was far from disappointed. There was at least one review that lambasted the male lead. My take is that he did a very credible job and his voice was solid too.
Unlike other reviewers, I thought this was a sweet story and I enjoyed watching it. All of the main actors seemed to be enjoying themselves. I especially enjoyed the dancing Abuela. The film has a light humorous aspect. I thought that the married in real-life couple did a good job of showing their deep friendship and love for each other.
