Amor Eterno

This charming romance story is based on a mystical or fantasy premise. A woman in a coma dreams about being married to a man she later meets who turns out to exactly fit the man in the dream. It is a bit of a different premise which is refreshing. It also has a flavor of a few movies about people whose real life marriage is interrupted while they wake up in a world where they never married that person but get a chance to see how both lives turned out otherwise. (A slightly different take on it is the 2000 movie Family Man where the man wakes up and is suddenly married with family to the woman he long ago left behind. An even different take on a similar theme is Sliding Doors which follows two parallel universe versions of a woman's life based on one version where she missed making a connection and one where she didn't miss it.) If you didn't guess, I like this kind of stuff.

The two leads have obvious chemistry and those actors do a fine job. We get to see the relationship develop in a realistic way. The two main characters are totally likeable and if anything they are both a little too perfect.

I agree with another reviewer in that I was totally annoyed by her parents, but fortunately those scenes are relatively small. There is also a rival girlfriend which I thought was done just about right.

Yes it's predictable, but that doesn't make the ending any less heartwarming.

Have been on a Hallmark film roll for a few years now, first for a while just watching the Christmas films but started watching and reviewing films from the other seasonal blocks late last year. 'Timeless Love' is one of the Hallmark Movies and Mysteries films and had a great alluring premise that's a little different to usual. One of the best premises of that year's Hallmark Movies and Mysteries films. Am not hugely familiar with most of the cast, the most familiar name is Brant Daugherty who has been watchable in what has been seen of his.

'Timeless Love' was very well done on the whole. Is it a masterpiece or perfect? No. Does it live up to its premise? Yes and delivers even more. Is it one of the better Hallmark Movies and Mysteries films from that year? Again yes, it was a variable year for that block but more often than not watchable and 'Timeless Love' certainly for me hit more than it missed. As far as the Hallmark Movies and Mysteries films go, or at least the ones seen recently, it's one of the better ones.

Starting with what isn't perfect, it did for my tastes end too tidily.

Do agree with those too regarding the unsympathetic portrayal of the parents, which took away from the charm at times.

Rachel Skarsten gives a deeply committed and heartfelt performance that is something of a revelation at her best. Daugherty supports her very sympathetically and really liked their understated but very charming chemistry. The supporting cast all play their parts well and the characters on the whole were interesting and easy to relate to, not many overblown character flaws or over-perfection. The script doesn't take itself too seriously while treating a serious subject with respect.

On the whole, the story is immensely charming and has a light hearted-ness at times and a poignancy often. There is even a mysterious surreal quality that was quite striking and something not seen a lot with Hallmark. The mystery element is always intriguing and isn't unrealistic or dull. 'Timeless Love' is attractively photographed with lovely scenery, confidently directed and the scoring doesn't come over as too loud or too constant.

Concluding, very well done. 8/10.

I loved this movie. The story is captivating and exudes hope, love and goodness. Megan, the main character is beautifully portrayed by Rachel equally matched by the leading man, Thomas. I loved it so much that I watched it twice. Multiple meanings may stir your imagination such as your fate is determined.. The cinematography amplifies the glistening scenery. The soundtrack swirls around repetitively grasping the emotions and not letting go of the hopeful theme. One might say it's a contrived story but that's truly secondary to the enjoyment it gives.

For a rainy sunday afternoon this isn't bad. The storyline is pretty original, which gave it an extra star, the acting was good and it had a nice feel. Schmaltzy yet enjoyable.

Wasn't sure if we would enjoy this. The deeper we got in the movie the better and better it got. A great story, though it started off kind of dark. Great chemistry between the two leads.

Yea, really enjoyed it.
