    Bit meh

    I haven't read the book, but love a good romcom so gave it a go.

    It's just alright. The male main character's acting is a bit wooden, female was cheesy but ok, but there wasn't really that much chemistry between the leads. There were some parts that definitely had potential.

    I couldn't decide if Dean was supposed to be a good guy that we were secretly supposed to really like or if he was the creepy friend next door.

    The ex-boyfriend was too quick to feel any dramatic effect in my opinion.

    An ok watch for a lazy morning but going by other reviews seems I probably would have loved it more had I read the book first.

    Grandma would be totally into it

    I have many thoughts:

    With that said: second watch? I'm more into it. It helps that I really like this book and series and have read over a dozen of the author's books. It's cute and the Mercedes/Kate and Lindsay actors are spot on and they do seem like they've been friends for ages. The actor playing Miles is very good-looking and was a good cast. I think with a different accent and maybe a little more direction or line-reading, there's more to be had there. The actor playing Sam stole the show with his background faces in the bar. I was laughing so hard.

    So much of the dialogue is directly from the book and it's great. If you haven't read "Wait With Me" and you like cute romcoms, I highly recommend it.

    When I first watched this movie, I tore it apart in my mind. There were some shots I would have not lingered on so much and some scenes I would have preferred were shot differently. I daresay that the love scenes in the movie would have been better to be all foreplay with very few full body shots. I'm not saying fade to black, but the angles that the scenes were shot at could have been tweaked. The bad ADR DID take me out of it. Additionally, the song playing over the motorcycle ride does not fit the vibe of the scene and is too loud over the rest of the sound.

    The actor playing Dean was miscast or mis-styled. I don't know if it's the hair or the beard or the glasses, but there's something that's not quite right with Dean's style. Maybe we'll have another movie in the series with opportunity for improvement.

    In all: We have a 7 because it's cute and sweet if we don't worry about the love scenes. We want more/better angles, better styling on the men, and just a bit more polish on everything.

    Great romance, could have had even more spice

    This is the spicy romance novel Wait with Me by Amy Daws brought to life by Passionflix, who handled it with their usual care and attention to detail/dialogue!

    The acting was great and the on screen chemistry between Madison Lawlor and Andrew Biernat was off the chart thanks to some great casting and delicate directing.

    The story is about Kate an author who writes erotic romance under the pen name Mercedes Lee Loveless. She still technically lives with her ex-boyfriend, who is away for the summer, because she does not want to give up her house which is situated next door to her best friend Lyndsey and in the neighborhood of her other best friend Dean.

    With her breakup house having bad mojo, Kate has been unable to finish her next book...enter Tire Depot where like writing magic she gets her groove back and is incredibly productive in their "comfort center" with free pastries and coffee. She sneaks in for weeks working on her novel and eventually meets the hot mechanic Miles. These two unlikely friends strike up a friendship that becomes friends with benefits. The problem, Miles isn't ready for a relationship and thanks to his lying ex is very distrustful of women who lie...and Kate, while trying to fly under the radar at Tire depot, introduced herself as her pen name Mercedes and is trying to bravado her way through being a girl who is ok with casual sex.

    The romantic story was great and these two had chemistry for days...the only thing I would have liked more of was spice. Don't get me wrong, it has spice...I just wanted more. Otherwise no complaints. I know I will be watching it again and I can't wait to see what Passionflix is going to turn out next!

    Highly recommend to romantics and friends of romantic fiction...you'll love it!

    Casting was spot on!

    The only reason I didn't give Wait With Me a 10/10 was because there were a couple times where the music overpowered the dialogue. Specifically, during what author Amy Daws likes to call the spicy scenes. I could tell Kate and Miles were murmuring sweet dirty nothings to each other but I couldn't hear them. Other than that, I was thrilled how true to the book the movie was. As my title says, the casting was spot on and the chemistry between Madison Lawlor and Andrew Beirnot was perfect, as was the friendship between Kate and Lynsey. I've read all the books in the series except Dean's story (getting there) and I hope that Next In Line will be next in line for us fans!

    One of PF's Best

    Totally unpopular opinion but as an avid PF original subscriber I've watched every movie and show- and I find (with the exception of the earliest movies) anything directed by Tosca herself is just tough to watch. A couple take exception here but in general they feel slow moving, forced acting and I just don't fully enjoy them.

    As I watched Wait With Me I was shocked how much I was loving the movie, then I looked it up and realized Musk didn't direct this, ding ding ding.

    I truly don't say this to be mean, it's just a preferred style of directing - with the exception of Resisting Roots, which is also not directed by Musk herself (but woof that was a rough one to get through and I've worried more would go this direction- tho admittedly I think casting had more to do with the issues for that movie)- and Tosca doesn't hit the mark for me. This one just WORKED. The style, the cast, the flow- it was pure enjoyment from the get. Also a fabulous book- so that helps!

    I haven't reviewed a lot of these movies because honestly I have a love hate relationship with a few as of late... (pls bring back the early days of Hollywood Dirt, Afterburn and Matchmaker's Playbook!!) but this one was worth a rave! Thanks for this PF. Now, can we get the rest of the books? There's a thousand Gabriel.. I'm just asking for 2 or 3 of Amy's now!!
