For some unknown reason, I wasn't expecting much from this movie, but it's good! Whilst obviously not entirely original, some different little plot turns later on kept me interested and of course the scenery is great. There's just the right amount of music to emphasise mood without drowning the dialogue. Best of all, it's nice to see an all-age friendly film where the youngsters have fun in constructive not silly ways.

The scenery on an island off the coast of Georgia is really beautiful. It's more prettily filmed than some Hallmark movies. The interiors are attractive and color co-ordinated. The beach is attractive. The story is fairly predictable. A divorced single mom of 2 kids moves into a summer rental so her kids can go to camp. Her neighbor is at first glance a bachelor who enjoys surfing and partying and has a cute dog - not the family type. But of course he turns out to have more substance than that. He turns out to be nice to the kids and is well off and does good things. I love Amanda Righetti since the O.C. and she is pretty here though her hair dark color is a bit severe for her. Peter Porte plays the guy and hd is fine but flashes his pearly whites a bit too often. One flaw of the story is she is so uptight about her kids I can't see why he would be interested in her.

I started this movie without reading the plot or anything, I just knew it was Peter Porte (Baby Daddy) and summer. I'm gonna be honest: the movie it's nothing out of the ordinary, typical Hallmark. But if you enjoy these type of movies, you'll definitely like this. What I liked the most was the summer vibe (it's winter where I live and I miss it) and let's say i'm a sucker for romance. I found myself grinning more than once. The movie as a whole was good, a few details here and there that we can let go. The chemistry was good. The children were adorable. I personally believe that Lucas was very charming and Jenna wasn't that uptight, that's what moms should be like. This is the perfect movie to watch in the evening or at night with a big glass of soda or ice cream under the fan, with the whole family.

If a local high school held a contest where the student could write a screenplay and be voted on by a class full of their peers, and the prize was seeing their work on the big screen, I imagine it would look exactly like Love on the Shore. Amanda Righetti plays Jenna, a humorless, controlling, super-uptight mother to two annoying children. Peter Porte plays the good-looking neighbor (Lucas) without a care in the world and seems to only be looking for a good time. Neither character is likable, but they are sure pretty. Throughout the movie, you wonder why one is supposed to fall in love with the other and don't even realize they do until the very end when they kiss. Then again, maybe they're just friends because I'm not convinced he was even into women. If you want an idea of the riveting dialogue, here is a sample. Lucas: Hey, bud. I'm sorry I let you down. That was my bad. I can usually find something cute in everything I watch. Not this. Took me three days to get through the entire thing. Don't recommend.

I fell in "like" with Amanda Righetti's soft-spoken, yet tough-as-nails, acting abilities when she was a cast member on The Mentalist. Peter Porte, however, is just a tad to pretty. And they really had only a forced chemistry. Why didn't they rent a house with their best friends? That made zero sense. Why rent a beach house and expect quiet work hours? Unrealistic! Why didn't Lucas take the investors to the big event at the Camp to show them a bit of the Camp experience instead of going out drinking? Why would anyone who was interested in investing in KIDS prefer to go out partying instead of going to see the kids? Additionally, Tybee Island is a stone's throw from where I grew up. So, Hallmark, take note of several incorrect script and location and costume items: 1) it's the "beach" never the "shore" 2) Tybee has an historic lighthouse, you missed an opportunity to showcase it. The puny, rundown one you showed was an affront to southeasterners. 3) in the summer, it is NEVER EVER chilly. She wouldn't have wanted or need a cardigan for a walk on the beach or an out door dinner. 4) speaking of hot and humid, her long thick hair would not behave survived out of a ponytail or braid - it would be sticking to her neck and face all day long. 5) another reviewer mentioned this: no Savannah? Are you kidding? She's a teen fiction writer! Of course she would visit Savannah. So would the summer camp! Home of the Girl Scouts!

'Love at the Shore' is the first 2017 Summer Nights film, which somehow managed to be seen after the other films in the Summer Nights block from that year. Did actually like the idea of the film and have seen the leads elsewhere and liked them, Peter Porte being the more familiar one to me. Hallmark did make some good films in 2017 (such as 'The Birthday Wish' and 'The Perfect Catch'), and overall, but that year was very hit and miss for them (when it missed it really did). While not one of the worst of the misfires, 'Love at the Shore' could have been much better. It could have been a nice, relatable if done right film, but the character writing of the female lead significantly let the film down. The 2017 Summer Nights block in general was rather mediocre, with the only watchable effort being 'Summer in the Vineyard' in my respectful view. 'Love at the Shore' is probably somewhere in the middle of the batch, though the Summer Nights films from that year geerally are quite close together in quality. It's not all bad. It does look lovely and is one of the better looking 2017 Summer Nights films. Especially the scenery, which is gorgeous and is every bit as prettily filmed. The music isn't exceptional, but isn't discordant and is pleasant. Porte does decently with what he is given and is quite likeable and the kids are charming. Righetti makes a valiant effort in her role and has some winning moments, but she can also try too hard in the more melodramatic moments. Also thought that the film went well overboard on the overblown character flaws for her character, where she came over as too disproportionately controlling (i.e. That really over the top reaction to learning of the coaching) and quite cold. There are moments of nice chemistry between her and Porte, but it could have done with more development and generally could have been warmer if it had toned down the controlling. Most of the characters didn't connect with me other than the children, and this was a scenario where rooting for the characters was somewhat necessary to me. The script is awkward sounding and is quite trite, not much substance here despite the subject. Wouldn't have minded the big amount of predictability that the story had, from the countless story and character cliches, but it was very difficult to overlook when the story also suffered from being dully paced, not particularly realistic and at times quite thin. The direction is workmanlike at best. Concluding, pretty mediocre but not a complete loss. 4/10.
