Casamento por Internet

For the people rating it "1" and saying it sucks... IT'S A LIFETIME MOVIE!!!!!!! None of their movies have spectacular plots, or acting, or direction. That's just the Lifetime standard. Once you realize that you're not going to be watching an Oscar-winner, you can learn to enjoy their movies.

This movie is entertaining for what it is. There were no shocks. Or suspense (though it was meant to convey both). The plot was predictable, especially the ending. But it was fun to watch for 90 minutes. If you need something to entertain yourself for a few hours, this movie, along with the rest of the Lifetime film catalog, will do the trick. Just don't expect too much, okay?

The movie is about a single man and woman who join a dating website to find love. They eventually find it in each other, though she lives in LA and he lives in Philadelphia. After going on a few dates, they fall in love and decide to get married; their wedding and "love story" is so highly coveted a film crew from the site films their wedding. We learn the man has a daughter, and holds a close relationship with his ex-wife and her new husband. Soon after the two move in together, the new wife begins having hallucinations and showing extreme, possessive jealously towards every single woman in her husband's life, even if they have no romantic connection.

Soon things escalate, leading to a final showdown, which again... wasn't a shocker. It was actually a bit of a letdown.

I gave this movie a 6/10 because, like I said before, it is what it is: a Lifetime film. If you've watched one Lifetime movie, you will know what to expect from this one.

I'm not going to go into a huge explanation of what the movie was about & waste your time like some other reviews because you can just watch the trailer or google what it's about. Why people explain what the movie is about is beyond me. Just why...

Movie was pretty good! Sat down with a group of friends & we all enjoyed it. Everyone did a great job in this movie with the exception of the young daughter, she just sucked. Wasn't really a mystery type movie but still held our attention & was pretty good. We were all waiting for everyone to figure out what we already knew! There's another movie similar to this one "The husband she met online". If u like this one check it out!

Came home tired from teaching and caught this one on a rainy night. Normally, I lose interest in LMN movies because they're usually fluff with no substance (the nanny ones are especially lame). This one was different. It held my interest. The husband was very likeable and like the other reviewer on here, I was actually rooting for the villainess (excellent performance by Ms. Penny). Usually the villains or the 'obsessed' antagonists in these kinds of movies are one-note but Georgia is a complex character. Another reason why I rooted for her is that I hated the ex wife. I thought she a mousy brat, I can see why the husband dumped her. Worth a watch on a boring Sunday or late at night.

Somehow, this average film captivated me and I watched the whole length of it. The name of the film relates to the life of many unattached people nowadays – cyberspace dating! So perhaps it should be viewed before venturing into a relationship based on e-mail and Skype, without actual networking, family or school connections. There is romance in this film but it is not a "You Got Mail" or "Restless in Seattle" either.

I was intrigued because it was made in Canada, with many Canadian Actors, thus far seen on TV soaps, or Dancing with the Stars, or some horror movies, in short – unknowns. But the acting was good. There is a plot that moves along, and at the end there is an odd moment when Bryant receives a package from the on-line dating company congratulating the two correspondents wishing them a good life together. What was a bit unbelievable are the excellent relations between the ex-wife and her new husband and the ex-husband….somehow it does not seem that real. I was impressed by the costume designs by Andy Tait, Georgia in particular was beautifully attired throughout the film.

Handsome, wealthy and well-built Cameron Mathison (as Bryant Meyers) is having problems meeting women. Yes, you read that correctly. Amicably divorced, Mr. Mathison lives in Philadelphia and shares custody of his ten-year-old daughter with ex-wife Cynthia Preston (as Virginia). None of that really explains why Mathison must turn to online dating; possibly, he likes to fantasize. On his laptop, Mathison meets attractive Sydney Penny (as Georgia). Although she lives in Los Angeles, they begin an online relationship. Their first physical meeting goes extraordinarily well. They end up satisfied, under the sheets. Marriage quickly follows, but Ms. Penny reveals a jealous side...

This is one of several "Lifetime" TV movies portraying the dangers of meeting people online...

Written by Christine Conradt and directed by Curtis Crawford, it follows familiar territory and is competently made. Neatly trimmed Mathison and pouting Penny are nicely matched. She gives an occasional crazy edge to her saner scenes and he adds an adult immaturity to aid in accepting his character. Little Emily Burley (as Megan) may be developmentally delayed, which is a nice touch. There is good support, especially from Krista Bridges (as Zenya Ivanski). She and director Crawford let us know much about "Zenya" while spilling cocktails with Mathison. Crawford keeps the camera steady and gives us great shots of table and counter tops. However, the ending is tacky.
