Hearts in the Game (TV Movie 2023)

Hearts in the Game (TV Movie 2023). Hearts in the Game: Directed by Stacey N. Harding. With Erin Cahill, Marco Grazzini, Donia Kash, Bethany Brown. Publicist Hazel has to rehab the image of MLB player Diego, who just so happens to be her former flame!

“I love Erin Cahill. At this writing, if I had to pick one rom/com star who is still active as my favorite it would be Cahill. But her last two efforts have left me disappointed. Christmas Bedtime Stories wasnu0026#39;t her fault, it was all the story. The story put her Danielle in a situation bound to hurt someone. In this movie, the story is again a problem. It has no creativity and is very predictable. The viewer holds on to hope that somehow the backstory mysteries will make it worthwhile, but that didnu0026#39;t happen for me. Meanwhile, Cahillu0026#39;s character Hazelu0026#39;s appeal is mixed. At the beginning, Hazel is a problem solver who never fails. She has the arrogance to go with it. As she and Diego spend time together, Hazel softens. By conflict time, Hazel makes a courageous decision but then becomes a wimp.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere is a secondary story about Hazel and her high school friend. This story has a nice flow but is squeezed in. It wasnu0026#39;t enough to spice up the whole.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eCahill and Marco Grazzini have chemistry but this also wasnu0026#39;t enough to raise the entire production out of the doldrums.”
