"Absolutely Devoted to You": Great Cast, Great Idea… What Happened? | Quick Watch

Do You Watch What I Watch? | Hallmark Movie Reviews · Aug 13, 2026 · 15m

We had HIGH hopes for this one.

Absolutely Devoted to You gave us Kimberley Sustad, Jesse Metcalfe, a healthy dose of ’90s nostalgia, AND a storyline about reuniting a former boy band. What could possibly go wrong?

Welllllll…

In this Quick Watch, we recap Hallmark’s latest and try to figure out why a movie with so much going for it left us surprisingly cold. We’re talking the story, the chemistry, the nostalgia, the missed opportunities, and, of course, handing out some GOLD and COAL along the way.

Were we too hard on this one? Or were you disappointed, too?
