A Novel Romance (2015)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Simply A Masterpiece

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

I have a question: which year is now? Is it 1950? 1800 or 2016? It's not a start of a cinema. But in this movie actors simply don't know how to act. Good idea was turned down by terrible acting. Dylan Bruce looks scared all the time, afraid of something or somebody. I'm not convinced with such low acting. Charles S. Dutton also acts like in school drama - shy and scared. What's going on? Overall - boring, way too boring. The movie could be splendid but actors playing is weak. While watching the only thought was in mind: fake fake fake. Such movies you forget after less than an hour... I don't recommend to waist time. Giving 2 stars only for the theme - books.

This movie really surprised me. When I read the premise I was quite skeptical, believing that this movie would be another one of Hallmark's cheesy rom-coms (not that that's a bad thing!) but I quality of this movie was great!The lead actors were fantastic, particularly Amy Acker who delivered a great performance. I thought the writing of this movie was really great, as it didn't end in the cliché way I thought it would. I liked that the characters faced more strife and trouble in their relationship than the average Hallmark romance. 9/10 stars. You lost the last star in the finale moment. Just a teensy bit corny. Otherwise a great flick. Recommended.

First off, I have to say that this is one of my favorite Hallmark Channel movies ever, in my top 5. Amy Acker was very vulnerable in her character, but not unbelievable.Amy plays a young woman who meets a man on a flight and they become attracted to each other. She does not know that he is a bestselling author, while he has to listen to her unknowingly criticize his latest novel. She has been burned by public humiliation in a bad relationship before and his parents died at an early age, so they both are wary of trust and she vows never to date a famous person again.They date and fall in love, and in particular her three friends help her see that she shouldn't judge him based on someone else. Of course, she finds out who he really is in a very public way and she ends things. Even when he apologizes and it is clear she loves him, she refuses to be in the public eye.But in true Hallmark fashion, with a little help from her friends and his agent, they reunite and have their happy ending. This was a true pleasure to watch and a very believable portrayal of what a real relationship could be like. No doubt, it is well worth watching.

A Novel Romance with Amy Acker is a must see. All of us have been in relationships even marriages where some of what is revealed in this movie must be dealt with. I'd never heard of Amy before but if you're a fan you will love her in this film. All acting is superb but Amy's performance is stunning, yet vulnerable, beautiful, charming, witty, and sweet. A realistic love story with enchanting sweet romance that only Amy could portray but all can relate to. I must admit I've already viewed it more than once. I'm a new fan of Amy's thanks to her in this movie. Man or woman have a glass of wine sit back and enjoy the movie and then think about encounters in your past or maybe one you would like to have in the future! Fun, very sweet, very romantic and very enjoyable . . . a must see!!
