30 jours pour se marier

It's a bad enough premise to begin with. Offensive actually, especially when combined with all the other misogyny. But this movie is the closest copy to another movie that I have ever seen without actually being a remake. It's actually closer than some remakes. Almost every significant plot point is the same.

The girl scouts were the best part of this movie and they brought out a few good laughs.

Sadly for me, I kind of liked Karissa Lee Staples and her relationship with Peter Mooney. It's too bad the woman really needs about 5 years of counseling before she's allowed out in public. And he family needs help too.

If you can get past the stinky premise, either one of these movies is OK, but not both.

PS I don't know if I was clear above that my biggest complaint about the movie is the misogyny and the cruelty, mostly early in the movie. The Bet is not just insulting to women (general) and the woman (Melanie), but the way his boss engineers it and persists with it is even worse. And the attitude of ownership by the third fiancée adds to it even more.

The fact that the movie is such a copy of the other one(s) is even worse given how insulting the premise was in the first place. The fact that my rating is as high as it is says a little about how much I enjoyed the interaction between the leads, oh and the girl scouts.

Lifetime recycling Hallmark's scripts from movies they released in 2012. About 50% of the dialog is word for word from "A bride for christmas". Too bad, it's a good cast, which could have been good with a original script. Still needs mentioning until change happens, it's lacking in diversity, both ethnicity and sexual orientation. In "A bride for christmas" at least the sister was gay.

The only good thing about this very predictable movie is how attractive Peter Mooney is, worth watching just for his beautiful face and great arms. Some of the lines and the plot are so unbelievable I can't imagine how it even passed the editor's room.

I adored this movie! It reminds us how love should be and why finding the person to spend the rest of our lives with is done with the heart, not the head! And it all starts with a bet!

Likeable characters, believeable acting, and a story line that was not overly dramatic or ridiculous. A pleasant hour-and-a-half spent; at the end of which, I was smiling and satisfied. I loved the fact that the sister character was not the stereotypical rom-com "best-friend." She was every bit as pretty and likeable as the main character (Mel).
