Un automne à deux

I mean that as in the romance aspect of the movie. The scenery was beautiful and there was a lot of potential for heart in this film, but the romance didn't seem to fully manifest on screen. I couldn't tell if it was a chemistry thing or if it was the writing.

The acting was believable for the most part and I really liked the grandfather character. He was one of the stronger parts of the film and had you feeling for him throughout the duration of the movie.

I love fall movies because I don't have seasons so I love escaping to them in movies. For that reason and the grandfather I give it a 7.

The scenery in this movie was beautiful! I watched it from the viewpoint of the grandfather because I'm more of that age. I must say that I sympathized with him. It's tough when you get to a point in your life when you have to think about giving up your home, your business, your life that you've had. It's also tough having to admit you can't do all the things you used to without some help. So it made me a little emotional. But like every Hallmark movie, it had a happy ending. I hope to be able to visit a place like pumpkin everything someday. It really bought the feel of fall into the my living room.

This was loosely based on a book. And when I say loosely let, I mean it was nearly unrecognizable. The two main conflicts from the book, not in the movie. Instead they take the sweet relationship between Amy and her grandfather and make them have the conflict for the movie. In the book, Kit wants to turn their childhood home into an inn. Not in the movie despite it seeming very Hallmark. The main character was unbearable where not even the talented Taylor Cole could save her. It could have been so much better but it was just blah. It was also disappointing. It also success was the fall colors was beautiful and Corey Sievers nice to look at.

Hallmark gives us this story of a successful Philadelphia writer who returns to her hometown for a visit when her grandfather suffers an injury. She is pleasantly surprised that many of the traditions continue, and she also reconnects with the best friend she left behind years ago.

Taylor Cole plays the main character, Amy, who discovers that her former friend Kit (Corey Sevier) now works in her grandfather's store. There is little to no chemistry between them at first, and the story meanders between various of Amy's interests and concerns, including her job, which has impending responsibilities. But the narrative picks up, and the final minutes of the film are totally engaging.

One of the best aspects of the film is the depiction of the autumnal colors of nature. You can practically smell the season and the pumpkin spice flavorings of everything. It is very immersive.

Taylor Cole is , perhaps, the most beautiful Hallmark movies actress. Yet, after a couple of corny, but entertaining movies in 2016, Hallmark has been unable to provide her with scripts with sufficient drama or substance. Here, again, she appears in a rather dull movie that moves very slow, filled with lengthy conversations, going from the inane to the barely relevant. There is very little action in the about ninety minutes production. In the absence of realistic conflicts or drama, the films stretches over the limits whatever little it has. So, we have a grouchy grandfather, far too rude and obstinate to capture any empathy and a writer, Amy, with the absurd situation of been prevented by her job from living or staying at home, as she desires. If there is an occupation that does not demands to stay away from home, it's precisely the one of a writer! A writer does not need to be locked in a city to promote her books!

The rest of the story is the reunion of Amy with her schooldays friend, or old flame, after years of neglect. This is, possibly, the least original theme in romantic TV movies and is handled in no original way.

Taylor Cole and Cory Sevier are not enough to salvage the show.

The movie does have some gentle moments, is family-friendly and wants to be uplifting, as in old Hallmark tradition. It is a pity that it is not engaging enough to make it real entertainment or deserve a higher score, in my view.
