Technical failure
boriskaiser15 October 2023
This is another low budget Reel One Entertainment TV movie. Being low budget doesn't imply being bad however this one in the worst ROE tradition is a technical failure like many ROE TV movies in the past. Like so many times it was shot in Hamilton, Canada pretending to be NYC, and to hide it, they overused NYC stock footage. Audio production vary from good to outright poor, and the award for the worst audio scene takes the green house one. And then there is a music score. It's mostly bad, but the main issue is loud background music when cast talk/speak in the most scenes. It almost never stops and just drives you crazy.

I guess the cast is mostly passable. The main issue is ROE is signing for a lead role basically anybody in the last year and so. Tamara Almeida looks like a discount Autumn Reeser from Hallmark. I mean she wasn't bad, I would say she was actually the best how script was overall poor. Jake Epstein is okay but script ruined him.

Writting is just bad. First 60 min is ridiculous comedy, and then the last 30 min is drama which was pretty obvious it's going to happen. There is some romance in between, but I simply can't buy it between Sophie and Jason.

Just watch 2:23 min long trailer (for some reasons here is only posted shortened version) as it's the ROE one and for some unknown reason(s) it shows whole movie compressed, and save your valuable free time.
