Love on the Sidelines (2016) Reviews
Delightful movie. It's funny, sweet, romantic, and better than most.
I saw this charming movie at a sneak preview at the USC School of Cinema a few nights ago. Emily Kinney was present for a Q&A. She is wonderful in this movie and there's great chemistry between her and John Reardon who plays the role of Danny Holland. Emily reminds me of a young Judy Holiday and she has great comic timing. The story is about a young woman (Emily Kinney) who lands a job as a personal assistant to a slightly chauvinistic and egotistic star quarterback who is sidelined with an injury. He never had a female assistant, and she knows nothing about football. There's great banter between the two and the side characters are fun and more than the usual stereotypes. There's also a small role featuring legendary NFL quarterback, Joe Theismann (as Danny's father).
cute movie
Very cute movie! A bit more intelligent than the usual Hallmark stuff. Sparkling dialogue and good casting. At first I wasn't gonna watch it as I know nothing about football but I was delighted to find out that it was light on the spory and long on the romance! I did not know Emily Kinney before, she is adorable. And the lead male is quite handsome... I really liked the young woman who played Ava. I would like to see her star in something. Thanks for making my Saturday nite more enjoyable.
Adorable Movie
It's a guilty pleasure, but I must admit I love movies such as the ones the Hallmark and Lifetime movie channels show. "Love the on the Sidelines" was wonderful escapism; yes, the formula of girl-meets-boy, girl-and-boy-clash, girl-and-boy-discover-they-love-each-other has been done many times before, but the writing was sharp and the characters likable. The Emily Kinney character was reminiscent of a true Girl Friday character from films of the 1930s; she retains an edge about her and you believe this is a gal who knows how to take care of herself (instead of the usual victims so many TV films portray women as). I thought the movie sweet and, although you have a good idea of how it will turn out, still didn't take away from the enjoyment of it.
Classic TV Rom-Com
I found this movie while flipping through the channels. It was just what I was hoping for, an old-fashioned sweet, fun and funny rom-com, this time set in San Francisco in the colliding worlds of fashion and football. Plenty of twists and turns throughout to keep you guessing and hoping up until the end. The cast was great, including some supporting stand-outs, and it was especially enjoyable seeing former NFL star Joe Theismann in the cast. How I wish the big networks still made these, but so glad Hallmark has continued the tradition. Keep them coming, Hallmark. I've got a new dvr and 150 hours of space for more.
Delightful rom-com with sports twist (spoilers!)
3 cheers for this made-for-TV football-flavored rom-com that spikes it in the end zone... We get to see a whole different side of The Walking Dead's super-talented Emily Kinney, who plays a perky upbeat personal assistant to an earnest pro-football champ quarterback (Canadian Ken doll John Reardon) who's been sidelined with a leg injury... Alas she's an aspiring fashion designer who knows nothing about sports (but needs a job and so is willing to fake it), and so you've got some built-in nerd vs. jock friction at the outset, but since this is a Hallmark movie, you can safely predict the final resolution -- heck, it's revealed in the film's title!... The fun is getting the ball down the field, so to speak, as the writers and director have cleverly plotted and paced the arc of their romance... There's only a smattering of hardcore football footage, as most of the action takes place off the field, as he hobbles around his home/office or his sports bar hangout, but football fans will be delighted to see none other than the legendary Joe Theismann (who was famously sidelined himself with a devastating real-life leg injury) ) in a rare acting role as the hero's father... In all, a lighthearted romantic romp whose leads are easy on the eyes... Score an extra point for Kinney, a TV and Broadway vet (and accomplished singer/songwriter) , whose film career will surely get jump-started with her victorious star turn here...
