Mixed feelings about this one

I did not like the tone of this story. The commoner coming in and saving the day might have been a nice story. And he does keep triumphing in almost everything he does including showing up an experienced horseman even though his only riding experience seems to only be riding a mechanical bull. That was a little too much.The son of a Duke is automatically a Lord and I think has the title Marquess. Yet the cousin constantly insults him. Would he get away with that in front of a group?The story goes about how you'd expect. The cousin who is the alternate heir becomes the villain. Two relationships develop. The potential romance is rushed because of everything else going on. The story makes a point of a potential problem there and also rushes dealing with it.The acting is OK, but not great. The dialogue is mostly bland with maybe one or two good lines.Like the movie, The Royal We, from the previous week on Hallmark, there is an epilogue where the three royal movies of March 2025 are tied together. It was clever in that one, but seemed forced and abrupt in this one.

Recommend this one good actong and fun.

I have to say this is one of the best Hallmark movies I've seen in a long time. I had to double check that it actually was a Hallmark movie. Loveable characters, some well placed humour- it's really enjoyable. Andrew Walker is excellent in this and yes, he really does his own singing. It's not a musical but there are a couple of short songs in it Love the story line.In so many of these movies the supposedly romantic closed mouth kiss in the big finale is so unnatural I sometimes wonder if the actors can tolerate each. Not the case in this one. What a pleasant change to the phony end in many others.Great show and the acting makes all the difference. Andrew Walker makes all the difference in the world to the quality of this movie.
