20 ans à nouveau!

Bon film !

So many great reviews of this movie already, but I just had to add my 10/10 because Hallmark finally made a movie like they used to in the early days. It was NOT formulaic, but totally different, fun and sassy. A good plot with more bite than usual, some high quality writing and good direction were all brought together by great performances, especially the lead Katie Findlay. The whole thing was most enjoyable, and one can only hope the suits recognize that more like this will go some way to restoring Hallmark's tarnished image.

Incredible!!! Finally a Great Hallmark movie. Cast and concept were exceptional.............

Honestly, it was a pretty good movie all around. The writing was good, the actors were good and seemed to have chemistry together. I especially enjoyed Katie Findlay as Maggie Turner, which was written well as a funny, upbeat main character. There was a lot about this movie to get behind. However, I just can't get over one aspect of the movie, which apparently doesn't seem to bother anyone else in the reviews. When she is back as a 22 year old and trying to save the library, her and Josh resort to literally stealing papers from a briefcase, copying them, and quickly putting back in order to win the case. In no way is this remotely legal. It is not behavior to be encouraged. It isn't even that she cheated to win the case... They stole financial documents from the briefcase of the other counterparty while they were playing golf, and then dodged any questions about how they got it, easy as that. I kept waiting for this unethical strategy to backfire, and we would see that even when you're outing someone else without morals, it does not pay to stoop to having no morals yourself. And yet, that never happened. They win the case, live happily ever after, and rather than feeling guilt at cheating to win her first case, Maggie continues on to get her law degree and opens a social justice center in town. Moral of the movie: It pays to cheat, and apparently the ends always justify the means. It is too bad, because they could have easily found another way to write this that made the characters easier to cheer for than losing all their morals to save the historical space.

I almost didn't watch this as the premise sounded lame. This ended up as one of the more enjoyable Hallmark movies I've seen in a long while. Very creative. Great writing. Excellent acting, especially the lead female. The movie started out a bit slow but soon picked up and with great delivery. There is a lot of creative dialogue and the lead female (Katie Findlay) puts it forth with great variety of facial expressions and glee. This is one I will likely watch more than once.

I loved this one - Katie Findlay was so fun and witty; a nice mixup for a lead actress. I really enjoyed how throughout the storyline was unpredictable. Hope to see more of this!

This is the best Hallmark movie I have seen in years, possibly ever! I was not expecting such a great story and character development. Katie Findlay was wonderful, a perfect balance of smart, funny and kind. She had such a fantastic character to work with, I LOVED all the courtroom scenes, they felt real, it wasn't the usual Hallmark schtick, where a judge rules using human decency as the arbiter of what is the law, this character went into the courtroom and was a really good, grown up lawyer, I actually preferred her courtroom scenes to the romance, and I liked that a lot too! PLEASE Hallmark, pay C Jay Cox a lot of money to write more movies for you. He's excellent.

This is one of the best Hallmark movies! Thank you Hallmark for breaking the 'formula' and making a wonderful, real movie. The actors were incredible!

Hallmark truly stepped their game up with this movie! 10 out of 10 out of 10! Thank you for delivering a movie that above and beyond breaks the formula. Katie Findley brilliantly plays Maggie. She delivers her lines flawlessly with a sharp tongue and quick wit. ...and the ending is so good.

What did I just see? It was on the Hallmark channel but was it really a Hallmark movie? It was a time-traveling romantic comedy but that is all it had in common with the usual Hallmark. No pageant-worthy hair, wardrobe, and make-up here. Just great writing, attention to detail, talented acting, and fresh faces. We enter this rare territory zeroing in on a 37-year-old childless corporate lawyer, whose marriage is about to fail because her main priority is to make partner in her firm so she can "swim with the sharks". She is troubled about her marriage and confides to a friend that the crossroads in her life seemed to be when she worked with a childhood friend, now her unhappy husband, to try to save the local library building. After an unexpected encounter with her old boyfriend, now one of the "sharks" she yearns to swim with, she wonders if she should have chosen him rather than the humble high school teacher she is now married to and with whom she has little in common. If only she could go back in time and with her sophisticated skills and knowing what she knows now about the law, be successful in saving the building. That would certainly change everything for the better and set her life on the path it was meant to be on. I won't go into the ins and outs of what happens, because there is so much that happens both personally and professionally. The details and the authenticity make the movie complex, heartfelt, funny, and very entertaining. It is tight and action-packed. There is not a boring minute in it. No meaningless Hallmark filler or tired tent pole scenes. It borrows from many other time travel romantic comedies too numerous to list, but I was most reminded of the delightful 13 Going on 30. Needless to say, when she goes back 15 years to save the library, she also saves her marriage, her husband's career, her father's health, and turns her brother's and her best friend's lives around. It all culminates at her parent's 25th anniversary when she hits her head again and shoots back to her real life at their 40th. The acting is great all around, but the star of the show is Katie Findlay, whose looks and talent brought even more life and charm to the role that was already well-written. Had she not been cast, the movie still would have been wonderful, but she made it a 10 out of a 10. I fear she will soon be going on to bigger and better things. Sadly for Hallmarkland, I predict we will not be seeing her again on this channel.
