My wife and I watched this movie a few weeks ago as the Hallmark Channel was "celebrating Summer" or something like that. This movie started at 11:00 at night, so I could only watch about 30 minutes of it. My wife watched a bit more than 30 minutes of it, but she didn't watch the ending because it was on pretty late. When you have things to do early in the morning, sometimes you just can't stay up and watch "Summer in the City" in its entirety. For the part I watched, I gave the movie 8 thumbs down. However, my wife gave the movie (which she watched a little more of than me) 10 thumbs up. So that leaves a final rating of two thumbs up between my wife and me.
This movie was about a woman who is running a small town Ohio clothing store when Vivica A. Fox, who runs a large Manhattan clothing store, inexplicably hires the small-town girl to run her big-city store. It then became a question of "Will she make it in the Big City?" That question was posed by me to my wife several times throughout the parts of this movie that I watched. My wife charitably fielded this question from me over and over again and always responded "Well, I don't know....." Eventually the main character started to make it in the Big City, so my question of "Will she make it in the Big City?" turned into me proclaiming to my wife "She's making it in the big city!" I assume that there was some kind of conflict, resolution, and romance in this movie, but I didn't stay up to watch it. My wife didn't watch the ending either, so we both assume that the main character died, probably when a piece of the Empire State Building broke off and crushed her head.
