So good I'm giving this 7 stars, which I'm not sure I've ever done for a Hallmark romance. Accept for one small thing, this movie was perfect. It was mission driven "gotta learn this aerial routine in six weeks because the annual small town festival DEPENDS on it." And then there was a beautiful performance at the end. I rewound the final performance no less than five or six times and put the song Catch Me by Thomas Bergersen on my YouTube playlist. The hero and heroine looked beautiful together. The banter was funny. Nobody was annoying. The small town didn't have any of those "cute" quirks, which I usually can do without. ( I grew up in a small town and it was *nothing* like they show in these Hallmark movies.) This movie showcased a realistic small town atmosphere. There was some tension and drama with the question of whether Luna could transition from dance to aerial silks. Whether she would stay in the construction business, whether the hero would leave town and continue to tour, etc. So I guess this was also a Work vs Love romance There was a stepfather in this movie, which was a refreshing change from the widowed parent, which is the norm for a Hallmark romance. I mean there was *nothing* annoying and everything to like about this movie. There was just one little tiny thing, the sound was off during the performance of Give My Regards to Broadway so it looked like a bad lip sync performance. But otherwise I really enjoyed this romance.

From the start Bennett was somewhat cold. Luna knew how to deal with him though. I thought the car scene was sweet and realistic when he said he had a surprise for her. Loved when the prospective partners auditioned. So funny. Felt there was a lot of Luna with her family. The couple definitely needed a hug together when they danced at the festival, to warm things up before the lovely ending! Olivier Renauds facial expressions made me smile and the finale was super, especially as the music escalated and the couple climbed higher. It was a little slow in places but came together well at the end.

7.5 stars. Two VERY nice appearing lead actors are going at the aerial dancing scheme. She is a performance or modern dancer, maybe a ballerina, but hasn't practiced in some years. He is an olympian who does aerial dancing for a living. He needs a partner to perform at a local festival, because his previous partner has accepted an opportunity elsewhere. In usual Hallmark fashion, there is a happy ending. What is somewhat unusual (but not rare) about 'Love in the Air' a.k.a. 'Romance with a Twist' is that the male is super obnoxious with her at the beginning. But he's very convincing as a total jerk. She responds with a submissive attitude that might be appropriate in an orchestra acquiescing to the maestro situation, but not in real life interactions like this. Already, we see a strange bond forming, she's being too docile, but subtly flirtatious and he's overbearing and domineering, pretending to ignore her advances. It's all much too high school for me (yet strangely satisfying). This film has too few great qualities to give it a stellar rating. If not for the aerial feats that these two actors are actually performing, I'd be a bit disappointed. I don't see any stunt doubles, so thumbs up for that. Of course the lead female is lust-worthy, what a body, probably one of the best in the business. They show it off a-plenty, and that's fine, but I don't watch Hallmark for that eye candy stuff as much as the old-fashioned romance. I want good family wholesome. He is probably as handsome as she is pretty, and he has a couple of bazookas for biceps. Anyways, it was a nice viewing of two hard bodies getting their aerial dance on, but it's cheap entertainment, sort of a cop-out, like Hallmark's version of Baywatch meets aerial (with less skin).

This film had some issues, but it was fun to explore a different topic for a Hallmark romantic film and smart to use an actress with former ballet training. Premise:Luna gave up her dreaming dance to help her family out in their construction business. Her best friend is responsible for putting together an arts festival that is pairing professionals with local talent...including her brother who is a famous Olympic gymnast and now does silk Aerials for a Cirque du Soleil-like show. He gets paired with Luna, agreeing with his sister to give her one week. The two main actors were cute and the premise was did enough it was worth watching. While not my favorite Hallmark offering, I appreciate that they are trying new things.

This was a very well done movie and I am glad I watched it. The leading actors were solid in their performances. This was for me, somewhat of a departure from the usual Hallmark movies in that it was breaking new ground as two wounded souls worked together through turmoil and turbulence to prepare and then put on a performance. Being a team of just two pushed boundaries for both of them. It was interesting to watch the struggle each had. The support cast was strong but I think they could have been better introduced and strengthened. As an example, it took me more than a few minutes to figure out who was who, especially the individuals surrounding the lead female actor. There could have been more visible warmth between them not just words.

No chemistry and boring boring boring.like watching lumps of clay. The arial stuff was lame and brought nothing to the show. There was about 30 seconds of dancing, and it was like watching somebody warm up in a ballet studio. It brought nothing to the show. All around garbage really. The actors had no chemistry together at all. Nothing made you care about these characters or their story. Very pedestrian. I would not recommend wasting your time watching this movie. If you happen to be laid up with a broken leg and there's nothing else to do feel free to waste two hours of your life otherwise I just finding anything else to watch. When I read some of those great reviews, I feel like Hallmark must pay them to write such stuff because it's so not reflective of what was in the show.
