Casando com Sr. Darcy

Ryan Paevey is a good actor, but no good actor, not one- could have saved this movie. Storyline mishmash of improbable actions and reactions. No story at all. Centering it around Cindy Busby with the screechy voice and watch-me-acting vibe was such a turn-off. Just did not, could not, work.

There was no chemistry between Paevey and Busby in "Unleashing Mr. Darby", but the story revolved around him- as should have the "Marrying..."sequel-- but didn't. With Busby, the poorest of performances, the almost background existence of Darby in the script, this movie has nothing for me to applaud. (maybe that Ryan continues on with Hallmark movies, and that the others are all enjoyable and good).

For Cindy Busby fans- yes, she is a fun, nice person... and her other Hallmark movies usually have better writing which mask well. But sorry guys, she is getting worse, not pleasurable to watch at all. Hope all is well with her.

When I saw the first film I thought it was decent and good, but after watching the sequel I can honestly say I much prefer this film compared to the first film. Elizabeth and Donovan have a much better relationship and although there were still a few bumps, their love and relationship grew more stronger because of it. Aunt Violet is back and it was so annoying and wrong of her to take complete control over the wedding. In the end though, Elizabeth and Donovan got married in exactly the kind of wedding Elizabeth first imagined and in the end they finally get their long awaited happily ever after.

Loved "Unleashing Mr Darcy", and eagerly awaited this sequel. Rather disappointed. The writing was rather lame. direction was too loose. At the end of several scenes, the conversations just died. Lizzy just sits there and grins foolishly. No comeback from her or toward Aunt Violet! Frances Fisher's character lacks credibility. Aunt Violet would not have given in and accepted Lizzy so easily, even to get back into Donovan's good graces. Given her scheming in the first movie, she would have done more to squeeze Lizzy out! This conflict would have created some much needed tension among the main characters and stirred up some more interest. Also, Lizzy's(Cindy's) voice in many scenes is too loud and shrill, such as during the video call with her mother and sister Jenna.. They were giggling like a bunch of teenage schoolgirls and Lizzy's voice was almost like a screech. The only one who seems true to his character is Donovan(Ryan Paevey). At times, he looks like he is wondering what is going on and how he got there. One last criticism! For an educated man, Donovan's poor grammar in one scene is glaring! When talking to Henry in his office one evening, he states he wants the "honeymoon to be about Elizabeth and I." Any elementary school student understands "about" is a preposition and takes the objective form of what follow. i.e., He should have referred to "Elizabeth and ME." The movie did start off on a good note, literally. The dance scene on the rooftop terrace was the best in the movie. The music was romantic and their closeness reflected their love and caring. I was disappointed that there wasn't more of that tenderness and romance.

Elizabeth came off as spoilt and silly in this sequel, constantly pouting and nitpicking. Imagine having a hissy fit because your fiance didn't disclose that he was working overtime so he could take a month off to take you on a round the world honeymoon! And fussing even more because you were afraid to stand up for yourself and get the wedding that you always dreamed about. I just wished the writers would have done better with her storyline. Poor Donovan had the patience of Job in this one!

Is it just me or does anybody else find Elizabeth highly annoying?? Can someone be more whiny?? Who cares what the dress, or flowers, or cake look like? She only wants things her way. Seems like poor Darcy has no say at all! In addition there was absolutely zero chemistry between these two actors! Poor Darcy! Cut your looses and find a better girl!
