Nice seeing a different look from the typical actors,especially female lead wise however..
Hallmark has ways of turning things into clichéd or in your face messages(like drilling in a viewers head,this movie was about body positivity)instead of simply a plus-sized person in fashion versus otherwise dealing with everything along the way.
Which begs the question would Hallmark act like this,with a thin person?.. Give a plus-sized person another lead role,without only using them for their stereotype.. So feel a bit mixed,on their intentions currently.
Enjoyed the overall casting,cinematography,outfits & is worth seeing if you haven't.

Juicy Elliot proves she is more than just the supporting character she plays on Grey's Anatomy. A sweet story that focuses more on the body positivity side than it does the romance. It's a sweet and refreshing modern take on Cinderella and honestly, it took me a while to catch on to that. The ending wrapped up a tad confusing but overall this is worth the watch.
Instead of a typical, stale plot, this movie made statements without preaching, and the romance was secondary. The chemistry between the leads was not forced or cringeworthy, but easy and believable. The lead actors were so natural and really likable that the story was a pleasure to watch. The movie flowed beautifully and I sincerely hope Hallmark makes more of these types of movies.
This was a really powerful and positive and realistic story. The 2 leads were so good together. Jaicy Elliot proved herself on Grey's Anatomy and this took her to an even higher level. She's so much fun to watch and was the perfect choice for this role. Important message presented in a positive way - nothing gets in her way for long. ( obviously Hallmark had to have the "misunderstanding " between the leads at the end because it's what they do). Benjamin Hollingsworth was a sweet foil for her despite his "eligible bachelor" role. This is a keeper I'll re-watch. Don't see many of those anymore. Substance. Yes!
This was wonderful, ground-breaking, important, needed... and both thrilling and difficult for me to watch, personally.
It could've gone so wrong... and mostly I wish there was either some kind of redemption or kock-back to the antagonists that made everything so difficult along the whole way. That bit stayed dangling for me, then again that is fairy realistic.
The chemistry between the leads, the sass and truth sprouted by the heroine, the history she shared, and the sheer audacity some have trying to quash any sort of true representation in fashion.., it was all very relatable.
