My Review:

I wasn't expecting to like this as much as I did. This movie has just the right amount of cheesiness in it to be entertaining and distracting from the, at times, robotic lines and slightly off acting.

I haven't read the novel that this movie is based on because it's not the type of storyline I usually go for in my novels, but if it's half as entertaining as this movie then it's a keeper. Keep in mind this is coming from someone who hasn't watched a romantic movie in the last 7 years.

I loved the look to camera narration shots because it usually broke the tension by over explaining a specific storyline. The way they found to incorporate that and make me like it was fantastic.

This movie was produced by Passionflix. It's a company whose focus is to bring books to life in the form of a movie or series. It's trying to get right was so many other companies got wrong with so many books, which is amazing of them! They're slowly releasing new content and have a great lineup of future releases set. I hope Passionflix gets big enough to branch out into other book genres like paranormal romance, urban fantasy and a little bit of sci-fi.
