Where there is a new serie, there is a review, right? Well, we haven't finished When Calls the Heart yet, we're almost at the end of season 3. And then we have to wait for season 4 and 5 to come on Netflix. But we're enjoying it, at least I am, so a review seems to fit right now.
The music: Well, it is not that compelling, and the start song isn't really the best, but it is okay. By the way, the songs that play during the movie fit the scenes and everything.
The scenery: Of course, the scenery is beautiful.
Then the characters.
Elizabeth Thatcher.
Elizabeth is very...stubborn. She cares a lot about the people in Hope Valley, and loves her work: teaching. She likes romantic things and has started writing a book about Hope Valley, because she loves to write and wants to capture the sphere in Hope Valley. She doesn't care very much about her money, not if that means she can't stay in Hope Valley anymore.
Jack Thornton.
Jack is the Mountie of Hope Valley. He tries to help everyone, and he likes to do it too. He also cares a lot for the little town Hope Valley, and everyone in it(he gave up a job he wanted before, so he could stay in Hope Valley).
Abigail Stanton.
Abigail is kind of ''the mother'' of Hope Valley. If someone has problems, they go to her for help. She is an amazing cook, and opens her own little café(well, she shares it with Henry Gowen, and later with Bill). A lot of problems have come on her path, but she faces them bravely. I think she is a very strong woman(with that I mean, a strong character) and a very caring one too.
Rosemary LeVeaux.
I first didn't like her. She was standing in the way of Jack and Elizabeth and for that I didn't like her. But she saw that Jack didn't care for her anymore, not in that way at least. She is also very stubborn(like Elizabeth), very enthusiastic, and loves to help and solve problems and meddle into someone's life. But kind meddling, well-meant.
Leland Coulter.
Lee is really nice. He opens a saw mill in Hope Valley and by that gives everyone jobs and money. He loves Rosemary, and really can't say no to her. A good friend. He is that also.
Becky and Cody are the two orphans who Abigail takes into her home(first just Cody, because Becky is very sick and has to go to the hospital). Cody is sweet, but sometimes sees things the wrong way. He also awkwardly looks a lot like Kevin from Home Alone(maybe not so much in the picture, but sometimes when you're watching. Then he looks A LOT like Kevin).
Bill Avery.
Bill. I don't really like him. Not that much. But he's okay. He had an interest in Abigail, and then in Dottie. He can cook, was a Mountie, but sometimes breaks the law to catch thiefs, even when he's not allowed.
Frank Hogan.
Frank is the pastor of Hope Valley. But(secret, secret) he was a thief first. He got shot, almost died, and then changed his life for the better. He became pastor Frank Hogan(first his name was Matt Landry, but he changed it legally). He also has an interest in Abigail. I don't like him very much.
Julie Thatcher.
Julie is Elizabeth' youngest sister. She is a bit spoiled, likes to do things her own way, and believes people right away(even when they are lying and are actually an outlaw who is using her to get better).
I guess she is okay(much better than Elizabeth' oldest sister)
Clara Stanton.
No, she is not Abigail's daughter. Though she is her daughter-in-law, because Clara was married to Peter, Abigail's son. Clara is very nice, very good-willing and helpful, and she trust people quickly. I like her.
Henry Gowen.
Of course, in every show there's a bad guy(it wouldn't be the same without one, right?). But Henry Gowen is not all bad. He has a good and kind side, which he shows to Nora and Dottie. But everytime I think he is better, he does something not nice.
Charles Kensington.
(Notice that Charles and Henry Gowen have almost the same clothes. Even the hat.)
Charles, I do not like. At all! He also stands between Jack and Elizabeth, but then all the time. Very annoying. Even when Elizabeth tells him that she does not have feelings for him, except for a friend. Even though he proposes to her. Why!? And just when Jack was about to, too. Just go away, Charles!
Tom Thornton.
Tom is Jacks reckless and indifferent younger brother. He likes Julie(and she likes him), but he gets in trouble all the time. Also, his hands are a little loose, he just punches someone in the face(and then gets himself and Jack thrown out of the café, in front of Elizabeth and her sisters).His feelings for Julie though, are sincere, and he cares a lot for his brother and mother(though he sometimes is mad at them).
