Lucky in Love

Lucky in Love touches on a theme that is true for many of us - that the perfect life we've dreamed of may not be as perfect as we think. Mira Simon (Jessica Szohr) literally has her dream life dropped in her lap - dream career, dream apartment, dream guy. At first it's exciting but the more she lives her perfect life the less perfect it becomes for her. The experience of having it all enables her to understand that her real "perfect" life may be something other than what she envisioned, yet more perfect than what she could have ever imagined.

This movie was good Jessica really nails it as the lead and the other guy was good too but I was missing the chemistry. Other side from that this movie is worth watching

After one hour of watching Lucky in Love, I turned it off. This Hallmark movie had a cute story with personable actors, but there was continual repetitive "bing-bong" music in the background playing that was louder than the speaking. Instead of this being a movie, it became a concert.

Years ago the Classic Movies only had music playing when there was a climatic or action scene, but not while people were speaking. You could hear every word clearly then. Now you have to try and listen to both the speaking and a concert at the same time. My family and I have excellent hearing, but the music is just too loud and too annoying to keep the movie on. Why does Hallmark insist on ruining all their delightful movies? Their movies were not like this years ago.

I love Hallmark's predictable, happy endings. Please keep making them without the music while the actors are speaking. Thank you.

The story is about a woman Mira, (Jessica Szohr) that works for a Technology Company, and suddenly everything that she has dreamed of comes true. She gets a promotion with a big raise, she gets to live in a fabulous townhouse, she meets the man of her dreams, but she soon realizes that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. And her life starts to unravel as her job and new boyfriend, Liam, (Ryan Kenny) start to make overwhelming demands on her, and she really doesn't enjoy her "dream life". She is so busy with work that she doesn't have time anymore to enjoy hanging out with her girlfriends. Also a male coworker, Jonah, (Ben Hollingsworth) who is her biggest ally and confidant, is in love with her but she doesn't even realize it. And as an Executive she rubs her other coworkers the wrong way leaving them unmotived. The whole premise of the movie is how can she resolve all these problems and be truely happy again.

Of course it's another predictable Hallmark script so we know how it will come out, but it sure takes a LONG TIME getting there. In the meantime, you are left with feelings of stress and anxiety waiting for it all to come to a merciful end!

Jessica Szhor of Gossip Girl plays an executive who gets a promotion upwards and meets her prince charming. However when she gets her promotion she struggles with being the boss instead of the underling and also has no place in her life for her new guy.

There is a fairly predictable story about how she can't have it all - the career and the guy. It is so impossible? What's the message anyway - you can't have both? Jessica looks prettier than in GG. Wouldn't have pegged her look for the romantic lead always though she is more the supporting best friend. But she cleans up nicely. Benjamin Hollingsworth is her good friend who is secretly in love with her. The ending is predicable.
