duducomo-901-361481 The movie is great , funny, dramatic and it leaves you on edge every second. A thing that I really didn't like was the instant transition between scenes, it's too fast, it would have been better to give a few more seconds to the characters to end every scene, but being a very low budget movie, not a James Cameron one, I can say that the plot is very interesting. Emily Kinney is a very talented actress and this role made her shine. All her cute, shy and in the same time courageous personality was perfect for the Dany's assistant. I hope she will make more movies because this is a great start.I give it 10 for Emily Kinney and I advise you to watch it.
vulturemadam It's a guilty pleasure, but I must admit I love movies such as the ones the Hallmark and Lifetime movie channels show. "Love the on the Sidelines" was wonderful escapism; yes, the formula of girl-meets-boy, girl-and-boy-clash, girl-and-boy-discover-they-love-each-other has been done many times before, but the writing was sharp and the characters likable. The Emily Kinney character was reminiscent of a true Girl Friday character from films of the 1930s; she retains an edge about her and you believe this is a gal who knows how to take care of herself (instead of the usual victims so many TV films portray women as). I thought the movie sweet and, although you have a good idea of how it will turn out, still didn't take away from the enjoyment of it.
eladsivad-850-780625 An injured quarter back from a pro team h as to hire a new assistant..who has always been a male...someone in his entourage tells the agency...gender does not matter....girl shows up...QB NOT a happy camper...but he has no choice but to keep her....she proves pretty good...as I s a I'd Not a typical a love story..I enjoyed it The main actor and actress seem to fit the part well. And an ex football player is in the movie and plays a dad The ego of a famous person is portrayed pretty well and w h at you Would expect... Story ended well. And I wanted to see more of the st o r y T h at I s when I know I :h ave enjoyed t h e mo v I e
jerrylazar 3 cheers for this made-for-TV football-flavored rom-com that spikes it in the end zone... We get to see a whole different side of The Walking Dead's super-talented Emily Kinney, who plays a perky upbeat personal assistant to an earnest pro-football champ quarterback (Canadian Ken doll John Reardon) who's been sidelined with a leg injury... Alas she's an aspiring fashion designer who knows nothing about sports (but needs a job and so is willing to fake it), and so you've got some built-in nerd vs. jock friction at the outset, but since this is a Hallmark movie, you can safely predict the final resolution -- heck, it's revealed in the film's title!... The fun is getting the ball down the field, so to speak, as the writers and director have cleverly plotted and paced the arc of their romance... There's only a smattering of hardcore football footage, as most of the action takes place off the field, as he hobbles around his home/office or his sports bar hangout, but football fans will be delighted to see none other than the legendary Joe Theismann (who was famously sidelined himself with a devastating real-life leg injury) ) in a rare acting role as the hero's father... In all, a lighthearted romantic romp whose leads are easy on the eyes... Score an extra point for Kinney, a TV and Broadway vet (and accomplished singer/songwriter) , whose film career will surely get jump-started with her victorious star turn here...
