More annoying than romantic

I know why most people felt these characters had no chemistry. The entire movie was spent with the main female lead making fun of the "city slicker". She continually assigns him chores without helping him or explaining what to do to watch him fail. Amazingly he figures out how to muck stalls and milk cows with little to no instruction. The only person who helped him or was nice to him for the first half of the movie was the little girl. He must be a glutton for punishment, as he apparently falls for a girl who makes fun of him, belittles his upbringing because he's a "city boy", and patronizes him at every turn because he's new to being out in the country. That is why the romance is unbelievable. At 1:27 into the movie, she is STILL laughing at his awe of nature - and laughs at him for saying his embarrassing moment was having a client pay the lunch bill. She doesn't validate any of his feelings about his "city" experiences. Hard to buy into a love story when there's no sign of any "love". She is barely nice to him, and he falls in love with her?!? I don't thing so. This was very out of character for Hallmark. They need to fire the writers - this was an unbelievable story or at least very poorly edited. The actors seem to have no connection, but it's impossible to see any romance when she is busy smirking at his awkward attempts at ranch work and his enjoyment of country life. Once he makes his declaration of love of the ranch life and wanting to invest in her and her idea - that is the only time she seems to care about anything he does or says. The dance scene at the end of the movie is the only part that seems remotely romantic, and leaves the viewer feeling cheated out of a romance and disappointed. The story had a lot of potential, just really bad writing.

Sweet small town Montana ranch romance

This is a sweet hallmark romance between actors Erin Krakow and Ryan Paevey of When calls the Heart and General Hospital fame. Ryan Paevey plays Richard or Just Richard (no nickname...nicknamed JR),who comes to convince Sam Walker, the owner of a beautiful but indebted Montana ranch to sell to his family run development company in order for them to level it to make two luxury golf courses with a mall in the middle (why would anyone want to go to the middle of Montana for that?). Much to JR's surprise, Sam is a woman...played by Erin Krakow. Sam has her own ideas about how to save her family's ranch...involving turning it into a Dude Ranch. One problem...she doesn't know how to write up a business plan and just when you think Sam and JR are finally on the same page, his employees show up with the news that JR's company has not only purchased the mortgage for the ranch from the bank and are calling it due, but they are stealing her Dude Ranch idea as well!

Classic Hallmark City learning to appreciate the country...and Ryan Paevey not only looks good on a horse, but in cowboy duds as well.

Lighthearted and sweet with some hardworking follow through cowboy advice and scenic countryside to go along with it.

I don't know if it is truly Harvard level advice, but I liked the idea of tossing a coin and then catching it mid-air and going with what you were hoping for before it landed.

A rant about make-up. This is not really about the movie.

Erin Krakow plays a ranch woman in this movie who applies her make up like she is behind the cosmetic counter at Macy's. She brags that she gets up at 5am to do the chores. And one of those chores is getting her face on. In general I think most Hallmark actresses wear too much make-up. But at least many of the characters they play meet the public as shopkeepers, are on television, or have important jobs in big corporations where professional dress and and at least an effort to keep up appearances is part of the image you want to project.

But a woman who does physical labor all day outdoors? Who in an average day only meets her 2 employees and their little girl? Why the 3 shades of eyeshadow, lipstick, and heavy blusher? Wasn't she afraid those false eyelashes put her in danger of toppling over into a haystack? And she has the nerve to mock Ryan Peavy for his inappropriate outfits? And call him a city slicker? Look in the mirror, lady. And what's with the tops that are so tight, she looks like she's going to bust out of them any second? Again, OK for some professions, like weather-girl or presenter on ESPN, but a rancher?

We've all rolled our eyes at old-timey historical dramas where the actresses' hair and makeup remain contemporary. Come on, Hallmark. This isn't Death Valley Days or Bonanza. We know better now, don't we? Many popular Hallmark actresses are rapidly approaching or have stepped over the 40 year old mark. That is not a bad thing, unless they are dealing with circumstances more in line with a 25 year old character. All the make-up does not disguise their age, it just emphasizes that they are trying to hide something. A natural fresh face=youth, to state the obvious.

Other than that, thanks to the gorgeous scenery and Ryan Peavy, this was a fairly pleasant diversion. Erin was OK. She is a pretty good actress despite her usual mannerisms. The plot was right out of the Hallmark "save the _______ from the big corporation" playbook.
