typical romantic comedy

Katie McCarty and Chris Riggi were entertaining to watch here and the twist halfway through the story almost makes it feel like you're watching two different movies.

It's quite generic and cheap on the laughs, exactly what you'd expect by watching the trailer. More of Jordan James Smith and Eric West would have been nice.

The script and plot were a bit corny. But overall it was heartfelt and had some really funny lines.

Just for avoiding

This is not one of the worst Reel One Entertainment TV movies, but one of the worst movies I ever watched. I'll start with a good things because there are barely any.

Audio production was suprisingly good which is rare for ROE TV movie, and that's too bad as was wasted. Another good thing is that kid (Sophia VanDette) wasn't ruined by excessive makeup like in some other ROE TV movies, and accidentaly she is the only likeable person in the whole movie, too - all right, Ben with a really limited screen time was ok, too. And they actually used real Twitter and not a parody social network.

This movie has absolutely the worst makeup on the whole female cast in any ROE TV movie and I watched them over hundred. Every actress in the vast majority of movie looked like a clown. Maybe they did that on purpose because all of them were horrible as persons so I guess it's symbolic. It takes place in California, but it was shot in Kentucky, and it was both a mess and hilarious - just read goof section which I added.

This is I think 6th ROE TV movie in 2023 season about single dad with obligatory acting your intellectual age trope. The whole movie can be simply described as a convoluted mess. Even after a week I still can't wrap my mind about what I watched. Then I checked writer and, oh boy, it's Chris Woodley, the same writer of "Write Place, Write Time" which is, you guess, another convoluted mess, but at least in that movie is Kaitlyn Leeb.

Just watch trailer as it shows everything anyway and save your free time for something better.

Trivia
They used Twitter in the movie for posting social network status and news and not fictional or parody social network like in the almost every other Reel One Entertainment TV movie.

Goofs
The movie takes place in California. Tara Holmes lives in San Francisco but in Act II she moved to the country side where Joe Wright and his daughter live. Initially, Tara found out on laptop that he lives in Pacifian, fictional town in California, but that town's ZIP code is 94911 which is San Rafael, CA. To further mess thing up, around half of the movie it was shown on Twitter that Tara is actually in Pleasant Hill, CA where Joe lives. To bolster this, movie shows several times stock footage of Pleasant Hill. So where Joe lives in the end? In reality, movie was shot in Kentucky.
