A Time to Dance

Like another reviewer said, only Corbin Bernsen and Dan acted well. What the heck happened to Jennie Garth's acting ability? And the movie just dragged and was melancholy the whole time. One of the worst Hallmark movies I've ever seen!

Had a nice storyline, but REALLY BAD ACTING, except for John Reynolds (Dan Payne) and Pops (Corbin Bernsen).

They showed emotions whereas the others, especially Abby Reynolds (Jennie Garth, who I've never been a fan of).

They sounded like they were just reading a bland script and told, "Don't show any emotion" and they didn't.

Yes, the script was predictable. It's a Hallmark movie, but they couldn't have gotten some better actors/actresses to play the parts.

Glad I didn't spend any $$$ to watch this movie. I got it from my local library.

One of the best from Hallmark movies. Rekindling a romance is one of my favorite plots both in books and movies and Karen Kingsbury is one of my favorite romance authors. the story is very emotional and a lot of couples could relate to. The two leading actors were great, Jennie Garth was so convincing, and Dan Payne is one of a few Hallmark stars that have the needed chemistry for his roles. Hallmark doesn't always get it right, but this was one of these few times they did. I watched it more than once.

This started out nicely. But after an hour of sadness and anger it was still going on. The stated theme was carried out for the entire movie until the last 3 minutes, as one reviewer mentioned. He was annoying, she was sad. Misunderstandings kept it going. Everyone would have known about this "secret" they carried; very obvious. At the final end, it's resolved. OMG. Tedious and a real downer. In spite of good advice by Pops.

This story was taken from the pages of Karen Kingsbury's book, which I have yet to read, and the premise piqued my interest, having just celebrated 25 years of marriage. Not only did the story line not disappoint, the writing, acting and directing all came together beautifully. Having seen so many couples around us not make it, and knowing first hand that marriage takes work, this felt like a real peek into a nice family's story that was quickly unraveling, even though from the outside, everything seemed perfect. The film opens showing the main couple when they were high school sweethearts, then fast-forwards 25 yrs later. As they make plans to draw up papers and begin to dissolve their union, they are surprised by their daughter's engagement. They decide to hold off telling anyone of their plans until after the wedding. A heart-felt lesson of the importance of not throwing away promises.
