Flawed but still not bad
The obligatory antagonism between the leads at the beginning was annoying with little wittiness. Both characters were unnecessarily rude bordering on cringe-worthy. Some of the acting was less than stellar, especially stiff delivery by the leads. Even the ending was stiff.On the other hand, while you could tell that Melody Nosipho Niemann is pretty young, she was still cute. The story isn’t bad, albeit still not stellar. The contest idea (with promotions hinging on the outcome) is not new, but I liked the giant Gingerbread house idea. One thing I always like to see in a Rom-coms is a lot of screen time focusing on the leads rather than other circumstances and this movie does that. I just wish their chemistry was a little more exciting.
Many reviewers on this page gave reviews and ratings that made me expect something much worse. I almost gave up on it after the annoying start. But while I probably won’t look forward to watching this again (which really tells me how much I like most movies), I don’t think it deserves so many horrible ratings.
It just doesn’t work
It’s not really the fault of the leads, it’s the attempt to pretend the pregnancy doesn’t exist. This isn’t as bad as Jen Lilley in: Paris, Wine and Romance 2019 (she looked like a small child in large adult clothes), but it’s close. Trying to hide the pregnancy with clothes, never works. And I think the actors are too aware of the pregnancy, so they come off a bit stiff and uncomfortable.Now, if they would incorporate the pregnancy into the movie, that could work. Yes, I am suggesting a pregnant woman finds love with a man who is not the father of her child. Perhaps she is divorced or widowed, she doesn’t have to be… “loose”. 😀 In that story, the actors could feel more natural because they wouldn’t be trying to pretend there is no baby, while trying to not squish the baby when they hug/kiss. :D.
