The Heiress and the Handyman

To the person saying they watched 30 mins, if you don't watch a full movie, don't rate it. You didn't give it long enough to have a fair viewpoint. I thought it was sweet, loved Gillian & the movie had vibes of Harvest Moon but less comedy. I was happy to see fall included instead of just a movie set at any time of year included as a fall into love movie (I know it's on the app, but it will be on linear soon). Corey brings his A game in anything he does, & Jodie did well, although I think there needed to be more characters included earlier on. I like the tie-in at the end that I won't spoil. I think a little more comedy would've worked better for this one, but overall it was a pleasant, wholesome watch, that I enjoyed. This was clearly an acquisition but it's a fun watch. The animals & fall vibes are the winner, so if you're in the mood for an easy lighthearted comfort watch, definitely give it a go.

I have to say I love the fall movies because there's so few of them. I was excited for this one because Jodie isn't in too many anymore and like most, I grew up with her. I'm a hallmark regular so I know what to expect. Very rarely now am I pleasantly surprised with a movie. I know what to expected, I know all the story lines and know they're just a comfort for 2 hours. This one was so boring. Absolutely nothing about this entertained me. The wig they made Jodie/June wear was AWFUL! How can you allow it to be used when it's so obviously horrible? Come on yall. I don't know if they started out hoping this would be as good as Harvest Moon from a few years ago but it didn't even compare. I had more hope..

Someone please tell Jodie Sweetin shellac hairspray went out of style with Woodstock '69. Her hair wouldn't move in a hurricane or tornado. She pretty and talented but I just stop looking at her hair. It is just so unnatural. I love all Hallmark movies and have seen her previous ones. Sorry this is too short to post; but someone needs to tell her. I know Hallmark can do better, and this was just sloppy. I enjoy both of these actors, but this was ridiculous. The lack of chemistry was present, and her overacting was full-on cringe. The quality of this movie was horrendous. And please TURN DOWN THE "BACKGROUND" MUSIC.

I love Hallmark movies. Even the not so good ones. Jodie is my least favorite actress and I usually skip hers. But I really like Corey so I thought I'd give it a try. It was the worst I've seen. First, the wig. Why???? It was so distracting. Jodie is a pretty woman but that wig was the worst. Second, absolutely no character development at all. This could have been a better movie. It seemed just rushed. Hallmark, you can do so much better. This should not be the movie you use to try to advertise the new Hallmark plus. I have my sweatshirt ready so please do not disappoint me for the Fall and Winter season.

5.4 stars.

Oh, the humanity! Sweetin is off and for her that's not unusual, but way off this time. I rarely finish a movie that is under six stars, this is no exception. I made it to 30 minutes or so. There are so many things wrong with the presentation, I wasn't able to focus on the narrative at all. The simplistic and laughable way that the lead female character is portrayed is, well for lack of better words, laughable. The lead male role is as good as can be for what he has to work with. The script is terrible. I was so disappointed in this film, no wonder it's already been released on Hallmark Network and yet the official release date isn't for another 2+ weeks? Does that make sense? No. The only thing that makes sense is that the producers and the Network realize this movie is a flop, and they want to get it out of the way, brush it aside, hope it's soon forgotten....ugh.
