I didn't like Christmas in Connecticut so why did I watch this even worse film with the same promise? Our female lead is a cringey, unlikable drunk. She's just awful! Her character supposedly grew up on a farm but she can't tell the difference between a cow and a bull, she can't ride a horse and she freaks out over a spider. Ugh! The gay couple is completely over the top and cliche. And speaking of cliches, the writers even threw in a horrible shopping montage. The writing is tragic and the acting is SO overdone, it reminds me of a really bad high school play. The relationship between our two leads is completely forced and ridiculous. "Romantic comedy'? HA! There is nothing romantic nor comedic about this film! It's just uncomfortable slapstick stupidity. But the most disappointing and saddest part of this horribly crafted film is that the basis of the storyline is that are female lead needs to save her mother's farm. A farm that her mother poured her heart and soul into after the death of her husband. So the fact that our female lead hates the farm, had nothing to do with the farm and shares no affection for it is just a really heartbreaking underlying tone.
