Just for the Summer (2020 TV Movie)
An enjoyable romance
20 February 2021
This sweet entertaining tale is better than most lightweight movie romances. The onscreen love match works particularly well because Brant Daugherty (as Jason Humphrey) is quirky, awkward and definitely funny in his pursuit of Hayley Sales (as Pen Campbell), a highly desirable budding author. Formerly a couple in their adolescent years they went their separate ways. One summer though, both coincidentally return to their hometown and meet up again. The charm of the story is compounded by their two mischievous well meaning but meddling grandmothers who match-make at every opportunity. The chemistry between Jason and Pen is believable as it would not be a stretch if they were a couple in real life. Jan and Pen decide to form a pact fooling their grandmas that they are dating to ease the pressure. The run time is perfect, the script is realistic, and the support cast lend credence to the story. It's enjoyable to watch.
