So ... I stupidly tried, once again, watch a Lifetime movie. Couldn't even finish it. It just was not good at all. Sad that Ryan McPartlin was in it - because I generally like him. His character was pure slime with ridiculous lines. The writing/dialog was really bad. The story stupid. Why do I even try with these movies!!!! The only reason I knew about it was that TVLine hyped it (how much were they paid???). I figured if they "endorsed" it - maybe worth watching. MY BAD. I DVRd it - watched 35 minutes of it and deleted it. I can't see that it was going to get any better ... who watches this drivel and likes it...

3 stars because dramatically, it's mediocre. The value of the film is its examination of communities living in isolation. Whether they're religious in nature, cults or formed out of a common purpose, most outsiders don't know what happens in these closed communities. The film shows many problems with these types of communities and helps educate the public on some of the abuses, crimes, lack of adequate medical care that occur there - in spite of the identity of these being marketed as pure, lawful and having an idyllic lifestyle. Although the film's identity is more of a romantic/mystery, it examines the lack of power, equality & agency for women living in this type of religious community. This film made me sad & reminded me that society needs to work hard to educate people on how to protect themselves from mental and sexual abuse.

Amish Affair (2024) is a beautifully crafted film that quietly draws you in and leaves a lasting impact. It's not your typical romance, it's layered with emotional complexity, cultural depth, and a genuine sense of respect for the Amish way of life.

The performances are heartfelt and sincere, especially from the lead actors, who bring such vulnerability and restraint to their roles. The chemistry is subtle but deeply felt, making the unfolding relationship feel both tender and forbidden in the best dramatic way.

What truly stands out is the film's sensitive handling of themes like love, duty, and personal freedom. Rather than sensationalising the story, it explores the emotional consequences of choice with grace and empathy. The cinematography is stunning, soft, natural lighting and pastoral landscapes make every frame feel like a painting.

If you're looking for a film that's moving, reflective, and rich in human emotion, Amish Affair is absolutely worth your time. A hidden gem of 2024.
