Irish Wish

I enjoyed this. It made me smile. It made me laugh. The locations were beautiful and definitely made me add Ireland to my travel list.

I have always loved Lindsay as an actress- I grew up when people like her and Hilary Duff were everywhere and I loved them both (no matter how cheesy or predictable their ventures/shows/films were). She could be in a show eating cheese (something that I'm allergic too) and I'd probably still find her project charming cause she's good at what she does. Happy this made number 1 on Netflix. Watched it the first day it came out in the UK. Bring on more Lindsay projects.

Lindsay is definitely the standout in this cast, as well as her true love interest. I have no problem with a romcom being predictable, and really not sure why it's such a problem for people. I want romcoms to be feel-good and predictable because life is complicated enough. Romcoms for me are like these warm hugs, cups of soup, blankets for can snuggle under. Indeed, for most romcoms you can predict the outcome in the trailer- that was the same with Bridget Jones and other great romcoms and it's the same thing with this. There are fun twists and turns in this film of course and it's fun to see how they get to the predictable conclusion, and on some level the Irish Wish reminded me a little of 13 going on 30 (another great romcom). I enjoyed the cast - they all did great jobs in their role and I left the film with a smile on my face. I'd also be happy to watch this again which is why I thought it was a good enough job and 7/10.

It's nice to see Lindsay Lohan again, but this movie is not her best work, nor Ed Speeler's. It's mildly enjoyable if you feel like watching a mindless tropey romance, predictable and familiar. There's a love triangle, an element of magic, wedding weekend, meet-cute, caught in a rainstorm etc, so you really feel the similarities to other good romcoms from the 90s & 00s, but it definitely feels like cheaper quality.

Good parts of the film were the scenery, and that the story moved at a good pace since the movie is a standard 1h 30m. Weaknesses were in the cliche unrealistic dialogue (especially with side characters) and the lack of creativity in the story and execution. In no way a classic and I probably wouldn't rewatch it but I enjoyed it for what it was.

Yes, a thousand times. This movie is basically "Freaky Friday meets "Made of Honor" crossed with "My Best Friend's Wedding." However, it was great seeing Ayesha Curry and of course Lindsay Lohan. Jane Seymour too. Just enjoy the movie for what it is. It's actually entertaining if you don't look too much into it. I was honestly engaged enough to see how Maddie's wish turned back around into the actual situation. And even though I knew how it would turn out, I was still happy at the end. Great movie to watch with your daughters or nieces, which doesn't happen very often nowadays. Nice 80's soundtrack too.

Lindsay Lohan is a very talented actress! I love her & don't understand why she chose this movie. Here are some of the things that didn't work in the movie and what she should consider when choosing her next project: 1. Horrible costume design - really hideous outdated wardrobe for all the women especially. Those bridesmaid dresses were ill-fitting and you could see all the undergarment lines, etc. - just unprofessional costuming.

2. The script was dull with unimaginative dialogue and plot lines that just did not work at all. There was no time & development to build up the relationships to make any of them believable.

3. The hairstyles were frumpy & outdated - from another era - especially Lindsay's never ending hair length that was styled like an elementary school-aged girl.

5. The makeup on her friends looks like it was painted on like a mask and they looked like their faces were pumped up with Botox, lip filler -etc. They looked very unauthentic as real women in their late 20's to early 30's. These Hallmark-type movies have to stop either hiring or encouraging women 30-40 years old to do this to their face. These women look freakish, unreal and look clownish as if playing caricatures of themselves.

6. Weird casting with the groom's mother looking a few decades younger than her husband and having her dressed in pearls, matronly clothes and her Irish accent didn't sound Irish. Please stop giving women actresses over 40 ugly hairstyles from the 1950's - it looks stupid & it's not representative of how women 40-60 REALLY look! When will these movies stop these dumb stereotypes in casting/makeup/casting/script, etc?

The scenes of Ireland were beautiful and music was nice, though way over the top dramatic for certain scenes. With Brad Krevoy & other veterans of these types of movies on board, the movie should have been much better.

Lindsay - you're great! Keep trying and keep looking for better scripts that are worth your talent!

The story had really nice potential, but unfortunately it was wasted. A lot of things should be written better, it seems like some stories were suddenly cut, like something is missing. Some scenes really felt unnatural. We needed to see more of her relationship with her friends, especially her relationship with Emma.

Lindsay was great as always, but she was not enough to make this movie look better. Chemistry in my opinion is very important in romcom movies and she definitely had more chemistry with Ed than Alexander that is why there should have been more scenes with him.

The ending was too rushed it should have been longer and better written.
