Dream Wedding

Before I address the quality of the movie, I'd like to let Darlene-Steve know that you did NOT hear what you think. The only thing that comes close to that, and what you must have misheard, is when Jesse says, "You'd have a fake name, of course! Raoul Credenza." Get your mind out of the gutter! (I'm teasing you - but no, he said nothing shocking.)

This movie was a disappointment, but never have I seen a whole string of reviewers give a movie with Jesse Hutch a "1" rating. I may be awfully cynical, but I'm going to come right out and say it: Are a bunch of people from a rival channel on here giving a bunch of "1" reviews?? Just wondering.

As to the movie, itself, the plot is a little outlandish, the writing isn't the best, it's really too unrealistic - but this can apply to many of these romances. I'm wondering if it was the director. Some of the actors - especially the insufferable sister! - play their roles as if they were in a farce. ("Haul Out the Holly" actually was a farce and - if you understood what a farce is - it was wonderful, hilarious, and the over-the-top acting was a natural fit for that movie.)

Wedding Dreams, however, is not supposed to be a farce! Jesse is a splendid actor, and he seemed so subdued in this movie that I felt he was somewhat embarrassed. He probably knew it wasn't going well. The sister overacted terribly, and the actor playing Raoul did somewhat, as well. (Again, I question the direction.) I admit, the movie is especially hard to watch at first. It improves after the annoying sister disappears from the movie for a while.

This movie will never make the "A" list, and honestly it barely makes the "C" list (Okay, maybe a "D.") But a whole bunch of "1" ratings? That seems very strange. To put it in perspective, I usually rate a movie at least a 6, and often an 8 or more. I'm giving it a 5, and if I were in a worse mood than I am I might have gone for a 4. But a 1? I don't believe that's accurate or fair for this effort.

That said, it really won't hurt you if you skip this one, unless - as I do - you just love to watch Jesse Hutch perform in almost anything.

Great American, what are you doing. As another reviewer said this movie is terrible. From the beginning it made no sense. Horrible story line, bad production, bad acting, yes just plain bad. I can't believe Jesse Hutch would do such a crappy movie. If Bill Abbott wants to win over viewers from Hallmark, this is not the way to do it. I was so confused thinking I missed something so I watched it for a second time. Yes I was correct it I really an amateur piece of crap movie. Please my friends do not waste your time on this "movie"? This is going to set back Great American a lot, you can't compete with Hallmark by putting out products like this.

Great America "Family"is anti-family. They seem to hire Hallmark writers who only know a few plots. As with most Hallmark movies, this one is based on a lie. Megan is getting married but enters her non-dating sister Kate in a Dream Wedding contest. Kate agrees to the lie so Megan can have fun. Before the first commercial break you will HATE Megan and despise Kate. The wedding vendors spend a lot of time and money to help Kate plan her fake wedding. This lie is hurtful to them. But I guess people don't matter to GAF. I'm sorry, but this is definitely not the way I want to raise my family. I don't care how it ends. A lie is a lie. Let's find a new family network.

Let me see: what is the opposite of "uplifting"? You need a dictionary of synonyms to qualify this production and meet the 600 words minimum requirement. A real review would be an inexcusable waste of time, second only to the time wasted watching the movie. Gross, uninspired, juvenile, idiotic, insipid, offensive, amoral, irritating, farcical, amateurish, senseless, plain stupid, misdirected, purposeless, buffoonish, demencial, inane, unreasonable, illogical, inconsistent, demeaning, are some of the adjectives that come to mind. Perhaps, one should add atrocious. I have heartily embraced GAC, expecting a paladin of clean, constructive, family friendly productions. With stuff as this, I do not see where they are heading. About the single positive reviewer, who wonders what kind of lives all others live, one must comment he/she just defined him/herself. This world is beautiful because we all are so different!

I was looking forward to one of your premier movies. Boy was I disappointed ! I have been a big supporter of GAC and very happy about competition with hallmark. If this is any indication of what the other movies will be Hallmark has nothing to worry. This rom com was not funny not romantic and absolutely not good. The leads have no chemistry, the first 15 minutes was agony with the stupid premise. The supporting characters were terrible. It seems this movie was made in 15 minutes. I don't understand why GAC would put this garbage out. The actors are decent the wedding idea though not original was fine. Who ever wrote this movie and or directed it should not be working at GAC Sign a value supporter but only if you guys and gals improve the quality.
