Fidanzati per sbaglio

I think people are expecting too much from movies these days. We're all too spoiled with these multimillion-dollar films. This was clearly an ultra low budget movie. They didn't have a big production and they also didn't have a very interesting plotline. The movie was super poorly written and horribly directed. It was exactly what you would expect from your average film school grad student which is exactly what a movie with a low budget can afford. want great acting and awesome cinematography? then don't watch cheap hallmark tv movies! duh. And yes, as everyone has already said it - the acting was just stupid. But when you have such basic production, terrible script, and boring storyline even the big hollywood stars won't be able to do much with it. i watched this just because i am a filmmaker and i was curious to see some low budget movies and i have to say - i feel like they did what they could with what they had.

The story was fine. Actors fine. Too bad all the females looked like they were being strangled by giant necklaces. Worst costuming I've ever seen for one of these made for TV romances. The huge clunky home party jewelry paired with ill fitting tacky clothes was massively distracting. Young women in their early 20s do not dress like 45 year divorcees on a cruise. I don't care about high fashion or trendy clothing at all so for me to notice how incredibly bad it was is saying something. It would have looked better if the costumer got everything at Target.

What is this? I have never watched a Hallmark movie so poorly written. So poorly acted. So poorly directed. So poorly cast! Were they looking for the cheapest cast they could find? Even the wardrobe department sucks. The clothes and jewelry are pathetic.

Fourteen minutes on and I was already cringing at every word said in the movie. The female lead is not attractive not did she have any likable characteristics. The male leaf is the only actor that has any talent. The story line is laughable. Don't waste your time or your money.

I think the lead male is Matthew Bomer in a few years. He will make the perfect Hallmark Male for a lifetime of sappy romantic movies. (And I mean that with all respect)

Some of the acting is solidly ACTING. It makes me feel like the director must have been holding an acting class and said, "For extra credit, I want you all to come and be in my movie!".

(Is that wrong?). 😁

It's a cute, predictable movie about a down on her luck aspiring actress pretending that a Hollywood star actor is her boyfriend to impress her friends from high school at her best friend's wedding. The Hollywood star finds out about it and goes along with the lie since he has to cover up for a simplistic problem he's in and you already knows how the movie ends. The two leads are pretty good actors in a very simplistic plot with no stakes and manufactured drama resolved within minutes of occurring. There is no real conflict in this movie. However, the cast was good and they did the best with the small budget they were given. This movie is very generic but if you want to waste an hour and a half on a movie, it's a good movie to simply watch to waste the time.
