At Midnight

Okay guys. When you choose this movie to watch, and other movies like it, you have to understand what kind of ride you're going on. You don't get in line for the goliath at Six Flags if you want a calm nice relaxing afternoon theme park ride. In the same way you don't put on "at midnight" if you're looking for awards caliber, cinema changing content. So you have to calibrate yourself to what you're choosing to watch. All that said, it was a super cute, intentionally cheesy, funny, romantic comedy that kept me and my fiancée, laughing and smiling and giving each other cheesy giggles from beginning to end. So If you don't have a giant, self-important, film-snob stick up your a**, I think you'll Enjoy this movie a lot.

I highly recommend this. It's obvious this isn't a movie made for the theater and I can't rate it at those standards. It was a higher level of of a Lifetime/Hallmark movie.

This movie had a great storyline, acting was great, the Chemistry worked really good between actors and characters, and the it wasn't hoky. Definitely a feel good movie.

Diego did very well as a Hotel employee, and like always made it a fun movie. He doesn't' get the credit he deserves, hopefully they'll start casting him in larger budget blockbusters. Monica also did a great job, wasn't familiar with her work but was very impressed.

The dialogue was absolutely terrible. I mean, some of the writing was trying to be self-aware but was actually just cringeworthy. But the poor writing mixed with the mediocre acting actually had me laughing out loud throughout the entire film. The lines are so shocking that I physically could not believe it was in the movie. It was pretty fun in that regard. The plot is as generic as one could expect. Monica Barbaro was actually pretty solid in this film. I think she has a ton of potential in a film that was actually attempting to be good. Overall, I would not recommend At Midnight unless you are interested in laughing at its absurdity.

Score: 33% Verdict: Bad (but fun)

It was not Hallmark cringe but it was not remarkable either. I found that the storyline was too simple, like imagine you can skip whole parts of the film without missing anything. It lacked that special something. Also the thing between them, it all came together so fast. You couldn't tell when did they fell in love or what? Which is not good for a rom com. The actors were fine and the leads fitted. Not in a way that they would get you shipping them though. And that's also not good for a rom com. I wouldn't watch it again but go ahead and watch if you have a couple of hours to spare and want to relax.

Super hero movie star, Sophie Wilder, catches her co-star-boyfriend cheating on her and has to finish making their current film on location in Mexico. Her agent, in a true conflict of interest who represents both of them, convinces Sophie not to let anyone know that her and Adam have broken up until after the filming wraps.

Stressed, but trying to make the most of it Sophie meets the assistant manager of the hotel, Alejandro. The two develop feelings for each other that they both must hide.

Lots of Spanish language in this film...which I loved and a slow burn romance that seemed fairly healthy. I think open minded romantics will enjoy this film. There were several great supporting characters that brought both the comedy and some of the more serious topics to light (like Alejandro's family).

The big surprise for me was the actor playing Alejandro, Diego Boneta. He was wonderful and reminded me of a Latin Michael Bublé.
