kmpeckham-23545 Wow! We watch Hallmark movies because they are wholesome and have happy endings. But this movie was definitely the worst Hallmark movie I've ever seen! And I've seen quite a few that weren't very good.Poor plot, poor script, poor acting. Not one surprise in the movie. Absolutely hokey! Deleted immediately.Is Hallmark hiring rookie writers that can't get a job?

NJS The actors left so many awkward moments of silence that it made me feel uncomfortable. The main characters were very cold to each other. However, I did like the interaction between Will Nash (Ryan Paevey) and Andy. I liked Ryan Paevey in Unleashing Mr. Darcy. Jen Lilly on the other hand was disappointing. She never made eye-contact, had a fake smile on her face constantly, and never really made me feel like she was sincere. Overall, a strange movie. Can't put my finger on it but it was odd and awkward. Not a lot of love going on....

Jack Vasen This is the second Hallmark premiere movie from this year's Harvest theme season that was a dud. (I record them and don't watch in the sequence they are shown.) Are they rushing them a little? The acting was stiff, especially Jen Lilly, and there was no chemistry between the leads. There was no real reason for them to bond because they weren't connecting or doing that much to connect. Perhaps it was the directing because it also seemed like scenes were laid out one after another, quick and dirty, like cards laid face up on the table, and with poor transition. Or maybe it was ticking off the list of plot devices covered. You could see the pieces for the ending being laid out neatly with no surprise whatsoever.The two scenes shown in all the teasers were incredibly stupid and contrived, especially failing to yield on the bridge.Were the pear picking details at all realistic? Maybe, but some things seemed off.Well into the movie, I was thinking, oh good, a harvest movie without a contest win to save somebody's farm or business, and then darn, they threw that in too, like another card.One small compliment for this film. Usually in these movies they show a driven type person suddenly agreeing to completely change their life-style to a slow-paced one. Yeah, that's going to work long term. In this movie, you could see that Luna was burnt out and needed a change. She seemed more like her personality type was a people pleaser who got sucked into too much, rather than someone driven to get ahead. The less driven personality showed as she obviously was enjoying the slow pace of rural life, sipping her coffee and strolling around. The motivation to change was there because of her son. And the new career she chose might be a little slower, but still promised to be a fulfilling one.I rarely say this, but this movie was a waste of time.

rebekahrox Nothing. Happens. Move on, Nothing to see here unless you are a Ryan Paevey fan, which on the strength of his charming performance in "Unleashing Mr. Darcy," I am. Jen Lilley, the actress who plays the female lead is very pretty with huge eyes. Huge. Unfortunately, her performance is distracting to the max. I might attribute this to the vapid script, but she has a smile plastered on her face throughout the movie, usually accompanied by an irritating titter. Someone should do a spread sheet on how often she completes a sentence by tittering. I doubt it was scripted. I understand her embarrassment, but she made a bad movie worse. Add to this, instead of real scenery we get fake back drops that look like they have been painted on velvet by Thomas Kinkade. I gave it a 4 due entirely to Ryan Paevey's futile efforts. Choose better next time, Dude. My patience will not last forever.
