It seems that Reel One Entertainment is fully on single dad train. This one has widower single dad like so many Hallmark TV movies, and there is divorced single mom, too. Like so many other ROE TV movies, this one sadly suffers from various technical issues, too. There is constant background music for at least 2/3 of the movie and its loudness vary from barely tolerable to loud so you can't barely hear dialogue. It just drives you crazy. Location is obviously fake Denver - it was shot somewhere in BC, Canada, and it looks like to me Kelowna like so many other times, and to hide it, they overused stock Denver footage.

Cast was average. I would say A. O'Brien was actually good, but she couldn't save this train wreck. A. Zachar was unconvincing. Both kids were all right. The rest of the cast had stereotipical plays: fake British blonde chick, feminized male drama teacher, bad white old capitalist, black "smarter than you look" female principal, married lesbian, tough black guy... Somebody had some list and they just checked it for its sake.

The main problem of this movie is that it doesn't have any direction. I checked director, and look, she directed "A Love to Remember", another train wreck, and "A Bridesmaid in Love" (this one is at least average). Let me explain.

It starts as mediocre high school comedy which wouldn't be a problem but it was shot in you know what times so in the limited shoting time, school was a ghost town. Literally nobody. Only in the late Act II we see few other kids who are in the play, and finally in the very end of Act III there is actually life in school - parents and teachers at theater play which btw was terrible as is every other modern reinterpretation of Romeo and Juliet. At least 2/3 of the movie is light hearted comedy then finally there is some romance but it quickly evaporate into drama, and movie finish as lame comedy just how it started. In short, movie doesn't know what is it.

And as every other ROE TV movie, trailer shows the whole movie so save your valuable time.

This movie was awful. The supporting characters were annoying. They went for comedy with the over the top drama teacher and failed miserably. The work assistant seemed like she had a fake accent. Every line sounded awkward because of it.

The lead characters were slightly better, but they still spent too much of the movie interacting like snarky coworkers rather than potential romantic partners. Their kids had the most genuine interactions in the movie, so I give them credit for that.

The worst part of the movie, though, was the outstandingly obvious and insultingly out of place advertisment for chicken. The kid said the brand name, showed the package of the chicken, then put it on the table for the camera to zoom in on it. Then the four lead characters gathered around to sit and eat the chicken, while one of them described how convenient, high-quality, and healthy it was. Product placement can be acceptable, but they wrote an entire scene around this garbage. Brutal.

The PLOT is INSANE! The BULLDOG OVERLY DRAMATIC principal with the AGGRESSIVE UNDERBITE IS one of the most horrific actresses I've EVER SEEN! She'd last a Day with her attitude in a REAL school. She's Rude & insulting also demeaning . Having parents do their kids punishment is ridiculous and would never happen. The Drama Teacher ALSO WAY OVER ACTING THE whole "Gay Drama Teacher" Schtick. I can't even finish watching this one. Absolutely terrible. Oh and the Lead male & Female ALSO HORRIBLE actors. Just awful! How do these films even get made?

I watch a Lot of Rom coms and this is by far the worst one I've seen on UP OR Hallmark Channel.
