Truly the worst movie I've ever seen in a theater

Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

We should not have seen this.Movies where a lonely piano is sounding and everyone are smiling and everything is so cute and nice are dull.We almost fell asleep.OK we should have turned this movie off but wanted to see the end. Only to read "to be continued".It will take a while before part 2 comes up in Sweden but we do not care about it any more.There are more interesting things to do like watching drying paint.

because there is NO ENDING. This is episode 1 of 2, and we have to wait until Christmas 2016 for part two. My advice...wait until Jan 2017 and watch BOTH episodes (and hope that by then, episode 2 of 2 hasn't morphed into episode 2 of 3. There is NO ENDING.

Karen Kingsbury wraps herself on the fabric of Christianity as an excuse to steal her viewers trust and good will. I will no longer play that game.

We LOVE the Hallmark movies at Christmas, but this falls far short of the quality we have come to expect. First, it spend two hours leading up to the - "to be continued". BTW that will be a year for you get to wait. Not a great Christmas present for loyal viewers.However, it would not be so bad if the first two hours were entertaining. It is the very first Hallmark movie, I wanted to fast forward and get it over. The plot was very sloooooowwwww.Next the staging was totally fake. That mansion in Seattle looked nothing like the Seattle area. And since when are trees blooming in Tennessee at Christmas? Plus, they have money to rent this daughter a house at college, but she does not have a window in her room at the mansion?Basically they took a small plot and stretched it to sell more advertising.

This movie was a profound disappointment. First, let's not call it a movie. It's really a series but one doesn't find this out until the final frame...to be continued--Christmas 2016? After resisting throwing something at the TV, I just shouted, "Are you kidding me?" What's bad about that, one might ask. Seeing series/episode 2 requires one to have some continuity from season one, something which is possible only if one can remember details from such a horrid production. Completely forgettable and worse, completely dishonest.Not only are we tricked when a conclusion is stolen, unresolved, empty, i.e. postponed for a year, but we have to suffer through such preachy dialog. Stupidly, I watched and waited for something worthy to happen. Maybe after this commercial, I told myself.The synopsis was misleading too. I reread the synopsis a dozen times, thinking someone was asleep at the keyboard, confusing it with another movie. Where's the rescue? The bookstore isn't failing, it's thriving. Go figure. Where's the hometown? Sadly, nothing will save this mess.
