If you have ever watched even one Hallmark movie, you already know how this ends. But, for a change, the girlfriend is not a shrill shrew trying to make us cheer for the leading lady. She's actually played pretty realistically and you don't hate her at the end. It's also a nice change where the leading lady does what seems best for her without dumping her life for the handsome lead.
The best ending would have been for them to part company but this is Hallmark so you know that would never happen.
The leads were pretty good and (on a shallow note - those eyebrows!) the existing girlfriend wasn't bad either. The dancers they brought in for the ballet sequences were good dancers as well.
So overall, it won't make you want to put a pin through your eyes. But also pretty standard Hallmark with a little improvement.

One small step above the usual Hallmark dreck
This is about having the courage to pursue your passion and love.
"Love, their surrounded by it, their in it. Once we focus on true love then everything falls into place."-Hope.
Hope is a dance instructor struggling with the decision to apply for an assistant choreographer position in London or get a loan and buy the dance studio she teaches at. In walks wealthy investment advisor, Eric Gunderson...only they have already met. They got off to a bad start, or had a meet cute depending on your perspective, in which Mr. Gunderson was throwing his name recognition around in order to get backstage at a play. As it turns out Eric is also in a quandary trying to choose between finance and theatre (he has a dual major from college...one for him and one for his dad).
"Are you trying to Mr. Miyagi me?"-Eric
As it turns out, Eric is marrying his business partner and can't dance. Hope, the couple's dance instructor, is having to do some special lessons with a Eric alone and is being pushed to do some out of the box lessons.
"How we are perceived is how the business is perceived."-Adrianna
Through the wedding planning it becomes more and more obvious that Eric and his fiancé Adrianna like and want different things for their future.
I love the romantic piece that Hope choreographs for her audition, it was a beautiful touch.
"I wish I could take the time to do this every day. Walk the Brooklyn bridge."-Eric
Sweet romantic love story...set in New York City. Great chemistry between our leads makes this a must watch in the Hallmark catalog.
Love and dancing...what more do you need?
