Movie #1952 "Palm Springs" (hulu movie) This movie was just okay to me. It "jumped the shark" about halfway through for me. Disclaimer: I am not a fan of the Groundhog Day idea in a film --- where for some reason the main actors are replaying one day over and over --- If I find out that's the premise of the film, I usually dodge it. However, along came the movie "In Time" Will Rachel MacAdams and Bill Nighy, and that one was so well done to me. It made sense, or at least I could follow it much better than others (I also like "Back to the Future" but it was made so you wouldn't get lost! that one was easy) But this one? I couldn't take a test on it ----- I kept asking Dave : now why did that happen? After asking quite a few questions on the rules of this time traveling, I just gave up. And I found I enjoyed the picture a tad more. So that's my advice to you. Don't find the holes in the process (and there are many, I think) and just "go with the flow," and you probably will find yourself laughing at some of the situations. Or at least enjoying the film more. I didn't find either main character endearing to me at all so I never was drawn into their relationship --- and I am a huge Hallmark fan, so that says I usually buy into many relationships I see on the screen. That's the major reason I would give the film a 3 out of 5. I think I'd recommend it to movie watchers who esp. liked "Groundhog Day" ---
