There's a delicious irony that a movie from Hallmark, a channel not necessarily known for originality in its output, would produce a film largely centered around assembly line production. And this one is no exception - overworked corporate female, hunky small-town single dad, fish out of water storyline, break-up to make-up last quarter... I'm learning that the main component of reviewing a Hallmark movie is your engagement with its lead characters. And I must say, Gubelmann and Penny (sounds like an accounting firm) are appealing if not overly memorable. I was getting major Kristin Chenoweth and Luke Wilson vibes from their performances here. Yes, it's as substantial as a Peeps Marshmallow bunny, and yes, you'll be able to predict everything that happens after the first 15 minutes. But I can't say I wasn't entertained, and there's lots of chocolate, which doesn't hurt. You'll forget its existence by Memorial Day, but you'll have a reasonably good time.
