Disparitions suspectes

All I can say is this is dumb, dumb, dumb.

I was one of the gullible who wasted two hours of my life watching this move.

The plot has so many holes, it would seem to be written as a class project in a 3rd grade class.

The acting is mundane.

I laughed at how simplistic this whole thing was.

I watch Hallmark quite a bit and this is the very worst "movie" (if you can call it that without laughing) that they have ever aired.

If I ever see the group in My Gal Sunday come back as another lame movie, or heaven forbid as a series, I will avoid it at all costs.

Completely unbelievable and sophomoric.

What in the world was Hallmark thinking when they televised this?

Interest plot with excellent execution. Well written and well played.

This is the whole of my review, but in order to post it, I must fill out the requisite number of characters.

Hmmm still over four hundred characters to go. Obviously the designers of this method of review collection have never adopted the concept of short and sweet. They prefer a verbose display unrated characters to make the review seem more pertinent by great collects of verbose.

Still one hundred twenty six character required to submit my review. I hope to satisfy the requirements without resorting to adding a cardinal countdown.

OMG! I can't believe this movie didn't cost me an arm an a leg to watch! The writing, acting, and the incredibly 'who done it' plot was an impeccably crafted piece of creative writing! Of course, and I do mean, OF COURSE all the above was a bald-face lie!

This cinematic exercise in flusing movie production money down the toilet places second to the waste I felt watching the cast miserably attempt some assemblage of believability but falling short in EVERY scene. Hallmark should be ashamed!! This movie had all the makings of a Saturday morning teenager crime drama; however, I really don't mean to undercut the enjoyment factor of Nancy Drew by suggesting this movie deserves to be associated with such quality company because, well, it doesn't - not even remotely!!

Oscar? In their dreams!

The good: Cameron Mathison and a mystery that doesn't feature a murder. The bad: most of the rest. While the actors were fine in their roles, they weren't given much with which to work. The preposterous plot is worthy of a Cussler novel, which means it's convoluted at best when squeezed into a hour. Factual errors were at least one per segment. The editing in of unnecessary and unrelated flashbacks tended to make things confusing. It's quite obvious why this did not become a series.

Personally have no bias against the Hallmark murder/crime mysteries, as there are some decent ones out there (whether part of their numerous mystery series or not). Cameron Mathison is nearly always watchable and more, even in the films of his that are not good. Hallmark's Movies and Mysteries block has always varied every year and expectations actually weren't high for the first 2014 Hallmark Movies and Mysteries film 'My Gal Sunday', with it sounding so far fetched.

My low expectations were not only met with the execution 'My Gal Sunday' but it managed to be worse than expected. Even Mathison can't save this. 2014 did see some good Hallmark films like 'A Ring By Spring', but also some real stinkers. Of which 'My Gal Sunday' is one of them and one of the worst of them. There are also some good Hallmark Movies and Mysteries films, though more the films with more serious themes and family dilemmas than the crime mystery ones, but 'My Gal Sunday' again is among the worst.

The only good thing about it is the scenery, which is very nice.

Sadly pretty much wasted by some really chaotic and self-indulgent camera work and drab lighting. Matthison looks ill at ease and his performance is lifeless, while Rachel Blanchard tries too hard and started to irritate later on. The chemistry between them is completely bland and found their initial scenes forced. The rest of the performances are a mix of ham overdose and mailing it in in silly stereotypical roles. The direction is unfocused and lacks energy.

Really disliked all the characters, ones with no personality, very vague at best motivations and who behave so outrageously. Especially the responsible. Furthermore, the script is both mundane and contrived, with everything feeling flat and unnatural. The cheese is also too much. The premise is very far fetched and beyond stupid to begin with and the story is wildly implausible and silly with no energy or tension.

As well as very dully paced, what would have solved that problem actually would have been having less of the flashbacks. They were not really needed actually, confused the structure and a few were irrelevant. The ending is beyond insulting and makes one feel like their IQ has been lowered, that is a terrible thing to feel watching something.

In summary, really bad. 2/10.
