Wow! Such a good movie.
Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
View MoreI think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
View MoreJust to start off, I LOVE the Hallmark channel. It's on in my house 90% of the time only because I have to share the tv with my family. With that said, I hated this movie. You have a girl who is HAPPY with her life, never complained about needing money then meets a rich, pompous ass who ends up being ashamed of her when he finds out she was a waitress. He belittles her, treats her like crap but she says, "there's something about him". Really?! After yelling at her, one visit with flowers is all it took for her to forgive him for treating her like Sh**. What I don't understand is why push her to "choose one thing" if she was genuinely happy with all her TALENTS. Then her best friend accuses her of quitting everything. If she was that type (quitter) she wouldn't have all those different types of jobs now would she??? Then of course at the end she ends up being good enough for him to win her back only because she became "successful". He offended her so much that she decided to follow his advice and choose the one thing. Horrible
View MoreI'm not usually a big fan of chick flicks, but I'm always open to any movie that looks good and I have to admit that this movie was very entertaining from beginning to end. Good acting, great actors, and very realistic. It wasn't like those movies that the things that happen would never happen in real life, but only in a Hallmark movie. Great plot. Lacey Chabert and Ryan Merriman did an excellent job. I highly recommend it to anybody, both men and women.
View MoreDecided to watch this on my lazy Saturday afternoon. I don't really watch many hallmark movies but there wasn't anything on HBO I wanted to watch. This movie surprised me. It kept me interested the whole time. I really enjoyed it!I didn't actually realize this movie was a modern day Cinderella when watching this which was good for me. Wasn't too cheesy!The 2 leads had great chemistry and I loved the matchmaking secretary. The best friends in the movie were pretty believable. Great casting!This movie was adorable. I would for sure buy it if I came across it in a sales bin at like walmart, video warehouse, or best buy.
View MoreCount me as a girl who enjoys these Hallmark movies. They are what Lifetime was before it became the man-bashing/sort of sleazy channel is currently is. Anyway, I was very excited to see this movie's preview bc I like Lacey, I recognized Ryan as the kid from that movie w/Michelle Pfeiffer, and we're all around the same age (26-28). Aside from that, the story looked interesting enough and sometimes you just need an easy movie to watch w/a pizza and beverage. Anyway, I found the story to be easy to believe in terms of development. My criticism of two of Hallmark's other recent movies (Flower Girl and Wishing Well) was that the bond btwn the two leads wasn't well developed. But that's not the case in Elevator Girl. They meet in the elevator, the secretary initiates the second meeting,and then they take off from there. It was obvious that they had been dating at least a month. So that's good.Liked how Rosemary did everything she could to hook them up after she saw how into Libby Jonathan was. That was a nice play on the fairy godmother w/o making it a fantasy tale. It was a great move not making the "big blonde" really the other woman like we're so used to seeing. Usually the blonde is a b---- and although Cynthia made one not so nice comment re: Libby, it wasn't the standard vicious "I'm better than you." I also liked how Libby, the free-spirit of the movie, at the end made the decision to combine all her talents together. A lot of times w/these movies, it's the free-spirit who's ALWAYS right and the more anal retentive person always has to change. That usually bugs me bc sometimes the free-spirits ARE all over the map (Libby was) and that's not always a good characteristic.The only thing I didn't like was the cheesy music at the very end when everything was in slow motion. The two leads were young, so they could've chosen a better song.Well done. I give it a B
