Gah! This movie was missing the romance and lighthearted feel I desperately wanted tonight. Here’s a quick recap and my two cents 😉
Quick Recap
Cynical Dean Chase is a local investigative reporter who outs people making false claims. He’s assigned to create a fluff piece on Cupids; magic chocolates help people find love. Unfortunately, he ruins his chances when he insults the owner, Lucy.
My Two Cents
If you read my blog somewhat regularly, then you’ll know I love movies with a bit of magic. So I was excited for this movie, because it seemed like it would be similar to A Kismet Christmas and the kismet cookies.
But this movie didn’t bring about the same feelings. There seemed to be more sadness. Lucy’s mom having lost her husband and Lucy in general seemed sad. Don’t worry though, because there’s a happily ever after.
Even with the happily ever after, I’m torn on this movie. I liked the magic of the chocolates, but the movie couldn’t keep my attention. I found myself gravitating to my book instead.
Maybe I’ll try this movie again tomorrow and see if it has greater appeal. In the mean time, I might search out Love, Romance & Chocolate for the millionth time. After all, who doesn’t mind a movie with accents, chocolate, and Lacey Chabert?
