Boring
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.

Moonlight in Vermont has some charming moments, but too often the cast simply walks through scenes and delivers dialogue we've seen and heard 100 times before.Nice backdrop for the story. No performances that stand out. Lacey Chabert has some talent: It's allowed to shine through in maybe three of her dozen or so scenes. This is a poorly written/directed part for an actress capable of much more.The biggest negative is the so totally predictable story line. As soon as we're introduced to her character, and that of chef Carlo Marks, we know how the final scene will end.The overall plot had a chance: Better writing and direction might have gotten it there.
View MoreWhile I agree some reviews that this movie could have been stronger, I disagree with panning it. Do not forget that the purpose of a movie is to entertain, not always win an Academy Award. The interaction between the two principles is the usual banter, but great when you need a pick-me-up when your down. Also, the scene at the end when her father reveals a secret to Fiona is heartwarming. Watch this one when up need a good story to make you realize what is important about family and love.
View MoreI thought it was good and relative to my story here in Vermont as well. It's like I used to fit in here (when I was a child), but maybe I do and maybe I don't. Maybe I can find ways to fit in with the Vermont lifestyles, but I'm still a city girl at heart. They say you can take the girl out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the girl. But I've been city most of my life and I can live both the country and the city....in the city where I do believe I truly belong. The country is too boring. It's great for relaxation and laziness, but it doesn't have what a huge metropolitan area would have (liveliness). You definitely need transportation in a place like Vermont, otherwise you are DIW (dead in the water). How can I make this my home when it will never truly feel like where I belong? I have to find ways to live with it for now. But the movie was perfect to help me understand how to move myself in ways that develop inspirations, purpose and passion to make it home to the best of my ability. Thanks Hallmark!
View Morecheck my review here alittleofallblog.wordpress.com/2017/04/10/moonlight-in-vermont- hallmark-movie/Moonlight in Vermont has an interesting story which has been well written.The movie is funny and entertaining at all times. Not once did I want to pry my eyes away from the sizzling couple that Lacey and Carlos portray.
