Easter Under Wraps (2019 TV Movie)
6/10
Predictable Plot, but Good Movie
22 April 2023
Warning: Spoilers
In almost every hallmark movie, a problem arises between the romantic leads. And then one of them, or both, overreact to the situation & storm off. But of course they make up at the end. This time I feel that the male character, Bryan, had every right to be hurt and angry.

The female character, Erin, posed undercover at one of her family's chocolate factories, with the name Veronica. Her dad wanted to find out how smoothly the automated machines were running as well as any other hiccups. Since Erin had never been the face of the company, it made since that she'd go as a new employee, undercover. I understand she had to lie about her name, resume, & life while she was doing the job. However, when she and Bryan started becoming closer & it got personal, the truth should've been told. Erin even met his daughter!!

Instead, she convinced Bryan to work with her on a project to show the board. So here are Veronica aka Erin and Bryan presenting this project to a room of corporate who are now ALL IN ON it. They all know that Veronica is really Erin. When Bryan learns the truth on his own, he feels betrayed. And the fact that the board let him pitch a project with her, made him feel foolish. Erin needed to tell him sooner. Predictably, you can guess how it turns out for them though.

On a hallmark movie scale of 1-10, this is a six. First off, it's an Easter movie! I'm not sure I've ever seen one prior to this, aside from faith based. The acting from everyone is really good! They all play off of each other very well. And I just like the vibe of the locations: headquarters, factory, small town. My favorite thing about the movie is a coworker (Carter) of Erin at headquarters. He comes off as someone who might go behind your back, but turns out to be a good person. He's just really passionate about his job! Overall, this was definitely worth watching, at least once.
