Film yang bagus!

I thought this was a precious movie. The main characters had amazing chemistry. Kallie is a genuine character who I couldn't help but cheer for throughout the movie. Job well done!

I definitely liked the idea of the movie. It was fun to try to figure out the mystery. I thought the lead female was extremely likable and very believable, as were two of her suitors. To not make this a spoiler, the suitor that was last on the list had absolutely zero chemistry with her. He was on screen more than the other two, and his range emotionally was very narrow. There were about five separate moments where I almost grabbed the clicker to turn it off, but I did want to see how to mystery resolved itself. I feel bad for the main actress, because if they had an actor that had some sort of believability, the movie would've been much more enjoyable.

Horses? Check. Goats? Check. Small town feel? Check. What's not to love about a rural setting? 14 Love Letters is a nice story about opening up to love. And the language and romance are clean. The pacing of the movie's first half is a bit slow, but you can think of it as relaxing. In the second half, the story gains momentum. We don't get any exposition dump up front -- rather, it's up to us to piece together the context from the characters' dialogue. I like it when movies do this. Sure, you're playing catchup in a first viewing. But the reward is that successive viewings feel more natural.

Beautiful filming location, someplace in Canada. Interesting plot but sadly it's not that great a film. The pace is very slow for a 90 minute film, script and direction problems. Supporting cast weren't remarkable. Franco LoPresti was much better in the "Story of Love". Manufacturing food and skin care products at home can be problematic, it was portrayed here like it's very simple. If you're desperate, give it a try.

Another reviewer characterized this movie as slow. That's fair, but I was actually OK with the slower pace which matched the pace of the ranch life depicted. And lots of pleasant scenery complimented the generally pleasant characters. But I didn't buy the "conflict" that inexplicably drove the budding lovers apart. It seemed forced. Another reviewer insightfully noted that "manufacturing food and skin care products at home can be problematic." That's true, and Hallmark is notorious for making movies in which economic and regulatory realities are blatantly ignored, as they were again here (did anyone work at the farm or the ranch besides Kallie and Jackson?) Also, and it's admittedly a minor point, but if Mr. Fisher was like a "second father" to Jackson, why does Jackson call him "Mr. Fisher"? I thought the movie was mostly pleasant (though not great) and it was refreshing, and surprising, to watch a Hallmark movie with multiple suitors without any of them being easy to dismiss caricatures. I could see Kallie ending up with any one of them. Also, one of the best and most surprising things about the movie was the music. There were several very good songs by Roxy & The Underground Soul Sound. I also liked other songs by Campbell and Johnston's Black Market Band and The Redhill Valleys (thanks Shazam!) But one of the WORST parts of the movie was when the "journalist", in a mean spirited fit of jealousy initiated an extraordinarily awkward, inexplicable, and cringeworthy moment. Which was then quickly followed by some VERY unflattering moments that portrayed Kallie as a VERY selfish and self involved person with no empathy or understanding. Fortunately, there was a nice follow up scene where everything was explained in a satisfying way. Final thought: when the annoying trope of the "almost kiss" occurred, the phrase Goatus Interruptus came to mind.

I've never seen these two main actors in anything and I was very excited to see that they were very good. The chemistry between them was electricity. Beautiful warm and romantic story.

The chemistry between the actors was amazing. The story was very good Heck yes I will highly recommend it Very good movie. James Welch Henderson Arkansas 8/4/2022.
