Sounds like a great idea for a movie right? Unfortunately this tirade of a movie projects hypocrisy in a way that will make even the most devoted Christian squirm. The bland acting and bleached dialog couldn't be saved by its seasoned actors and for not of the setting and atmospheric tone it could have been a real disaster. With a plot trying to wage war on the viewers emotions is not the best way to engage, considering the theme of this movie. Unlikable characters and hard-core religious zealots with mental health problems doesn't equal a great viewing experience. Thought I had found a diamond in the rough, turns out, no diamonds here.

Well, actually a place for misfits, quick hook ups, dreamers and now schemers! This documentary held true to its narrative and focused on the hopes and dreams of love told by our three lovely participants and how they were deceived by our charismatic, handsome and did i mention RICH protagonist. Now it is hard to feel sorry for these ladies, due to the choices they made. They are all seasoned in the art of internet and everyone knows well of the scammers that overload our phones, emails and personal meetings on a daily basis. Their false sense of love clouded their vision is the defense? Simon did a bad thing yes by his deception, however the women were seeking more than love as well. Simon waved shiny things in front of them and they bit down hard. A little to hard that cost them their future savings. The documentary was like an American Greed episode, but it lacked the other side of the coin. A back ground on our Simon fellow and his past scams, along with the real truth and the fault of these women who had an agenda of their own and expectations that did not include Love at first sight. Greed speaks loud and clear here on both sides. Moral of the story, love doesn't come in the form of money and scammers come in all shapes and sizes.
