7.8 stars.
I think Hallmark can't go wrong with an all star cast such as this. I guess the leads are married, and I probably knew that a while back, but I forgot. What I most enjoy about 'Love Locks' is that with the backdrop of Paris, Romijn and O'Connell provide great chemistry, fun, laughs and love. There is a lot of energy happening in this story and I have to attribute most of it to a subdued O'Connell who is bursting at the seams to give us a whole lot more than was permitted.
Lindsey and Jack are two Americans who were in Paris 20 years ago and were lost in love, but she had to return to New York to pursue her own dreams of becoming an artist and whatever other excuses the writers could concoct. Meanwhile, Jack stays in Paris and builds a life for himself there. Lindsey returns to Paris with her 18 year old daughter (not Jack's) and by coincidence Jack owns the hotel where they are staying and the love resumes right where it left off.
I enjoy 'Love Locks', it's exciting and very entertaining. There is something very sparkly about the the Parisian atmosphere and the dream of love and the abundance of artistry in this film. There are several other characters that enrich the story as well, which adds more layers and balance to the film. 'Love Locks' is rich with pleasant conversations and exciting interactions amongst the characters, involving art, fine cuisine, beautiful scenery, and growing friendships. The dialogue is intelligent and bold, and the personalities are happy and fun-loving. There is not one ounce of gloom in 'Love Locks', so this is a good pick-me-up if you need one. The acting is great, the romance is great, this movie is great!
