Reviews:
π "Made For You With Love" was a sweet movie, but I must say I got a little bit irritated with the girl's attitude at times. Won't say anymore because many have not watched yet. Did love her designs!" ~kitkat
π "Made for You, with Love - This was a pretty cute movie. I agree with kitkat – the lead girl, Amanda, was a bit irritating in the beginning, I was so happy when she finally lightened up. Overall, family friendly, although I want to caution - I wasn’t fond of the 2 or 3 uses of Oh My G— and a guy does dress up, just to be funny, in a bride gown. There is a sweet connection between the leads – you can really sense their attraction to one another. I also liked the story of the seamstress, Amanda, who restores vintage wedding dresses. She’s trying to date again to overcome a past bad breakup, but will she choose the guy she’s currently dating, Keith, who seems perfect, or will she choose her new friend, James – who is brutally honest and sometimes annoying, in a sweet way. James is also there for her when she needs him the most. Along the way, Amanda’s own heart may be slowly mending." ~Net

Reviews:
π "I thought Sincerely, Yours, Truly was cute. It was a little confusing at the beginning, but got better as the movie went along. Family-friendly and a nice change of pace from the so-so Hallmark movies lately. Natalie Hall is becoming a must-watch for me when she's in a movie." ~Anonymous
π "Sincerely, Yours, Truly" on the 14th was a good movie." ~kitkat
π "Sincerely, Yours Truly. Well now here's a bit of a surprise - Natalie Hall can be hit and miss with me and to be honest in the couple of movies I have seen him in Marshall Williams has been a bit insipid but both stepped up to the mark here particularly Mr Williams. He was still the boy your mother would like to see you bring home! but his character also had a slightly harder edge to it. There was a slightly slow start to the movie but once it got going it was delightful and the plot was just that little bit out of the ordinary. There was a really great feeling of connection between the leads and plenty of humour. Reallky nice ending too. It's always good when a movie you aren't expecting too much from really hits the mark. I really enjoyed this - it was refreshing and heart-warming and definitely family friendly!" ~Anonymous
π "Sincerely, Yours Truly - super cute story! Loved Natalie Hall and Marshall Williams together. It had a "In the Good Ole Summertime" (or "You've Got Mail") sort of feel to it. Very sweet romance. Family Friendly." ~Net
π "Watched Sincerly yours truly, and it's very sweet!" -Maria

Reviews:
π I am loving UP TV more and more. Watched "The Dating List" and "Change Of Heart" this weekend and loved them both. Also enjoyed "The Right Girl". "Sincerely, Yours Truly" on the 14th was a good movie. These older movies are so much better than the newer ones. Any time I see Larry Levinson mentioned on a movie, I know it will be good. Loved "The Dating List" so much I have already watched it twice. ~kitkat
π "The Dating List was pretty good. I thought it could have been better if we got to see the second romance more and I didn't care about the female boss finding love, because of that. The lead actress was very spunky and very pretty. I thought the guy friend/writer was cuter than the lead actor. I thought it was pretty funny, but I thought the part how they met and the copies were over the top. When it came to the 'reveal', I thought how he acted was horrible! That was such a huge turn off for me. However, I am going to watch it again, because I had so many distractions and overall it was a very cute movie! Family friendly as well." Misty
π "The Dating List. Super cute! Loved it! Loved the four main actors/actresses. (The guy who played the head of the publishing company also played the groom in Love is a Piece of Cake and his characters are always a little bit too bizarre and unrealistic and don't quite feel like they fit in the sweet movies.) Family friendly." ~~Jane
Hint of Love
Original Air Date: February 28, 2021
Starring: Debs Howard, Dennis Andres
Story-line: A cookbook literary agent with culinary training is tasked with helping elevate the brand of a food channel personality known for his convenience-oriented recipes. However, as the agent works with her client on a new cookbook, playfully clashing over everything from ingredients to tastes, she must choose between following the directions or following her heart.
Review:
π "Hint of Love is sort of a no go for me. I just did not like the female lead's character at all in the beginning that I sort of tuned it out. I just had it on until I could watch Relative Race." ~Misty
π "I watched Hint of Love and I can't remember details except that I did like it and I think it was family friendly. The lead actress was different but she grew on me and I ended up liking her character." ~Jane
Please note: I have not pre-screened the UPtv new movies listed above. If you'd like to post a review on whether a film is family-friendly, please share in comments.
