Deux jours pour une demande en mariage

6.4 stars.

This film has a lot of potential, but it's too frustrating for me to give it a high score. The lead female starts a web of lies that cannot be untangled. It's not a new plot, but it is tricky.

Sometimes a movie with an intricate network of half-truths and charades can be entertaining, but this one became more of a train wreck than a well oiled machine.

As the story goes, she is attempting to advance her career, but the lies are only serving to destroy it. There are too many odd interactions between her and the ex-boyfriend as well as the new boyfriend. The lawyer is somewhat of a strange city boy and the billionaire is also a strange person. None of these personalities seem to fit the characters being portrayed.

The whole movie is out of sorts and doesn't line up. The fact that the new boyfriend pretends to be someone he's not just adds insult to injury and more awkwardness to an already unbalanced story.

I felt uneasy, and wasn't enjoying the experience after a while. This film is in no way convincing and feels like it was thrown together, and the actors had to make do with a broken script.

Not a film I would recommend, but maybe you'll love it. Obviously there are some people out there that like this movie a lot, but I don't know why.

I'm not really a fan of hallmark channel but for me this film it's quite fascinate me by bringing up something new and fresh i know the script it's like another typical hallmark romance movie and the acting wasn't really that great and seems boring but can we just appreciate that hallmark for trying to added some new formula to the film? Plus i like the chemistry between steve mcqueen and poppy drayton in this movie it's just so natural and felt like a real couple what a shame that they're not.

If i can give my opinion try to change the script a little bit by adding some drama into the film instead just flat romance till the end.

Hallmark knows pretty well how to satisfy its audience. I would love to see movies like these coming regularly. The characters were so sweet and humble. Everything was so well put. And the chosen landscapes were just amazing. It was a pleasure watching this & it was worth the time.

A twist on the popular Hallmark "mistaken identity" trope featuring British actress Poppy Drayton (who is gorgeous) and Chicago Fire alum Steven R. McQueen.

I don't think McQueen and Drayton have ever starred in a Hallmark movie before. Their debut is impressive, their chemistry obvious from the very beginning. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that they're going to end up together - this is, after all, Hallmark, where happy ever afters are are a fait acompli - but it's fun watching them get there.

Beautifully shot in the picturesque Louisiana countryside, with a very good supporting cast including country music legend Kix Brooks of Brooks and Dunn fame and Mary Margaret-Humes, who I remember first seeing in Dawson's Creek. She is a solid actress and Brooks does a good job, too, even getting a chance to sing a song. Of course.

A Hallmark winner.

Loretta (Poppy Drayton) is from a small city in Louisiana, where she now works as an event planner for a lovely country hotel. Despite the place being very beautiful, there are not a great many events to plan in the area. In addition, Loretta longs for a chance to see the world and work in a large city, arranging hoity toity affairs. Therefore, in spite of a longtime boyfriend, Wayne (Steven R. McQueen), Lori makes the decision to move to LA and work with well-known planner, Amy. Wayne is miffed and semi-heartbroken. Fast forwarding two years, Loretta has risen the ranks but when her boss stiffs her for a promotion, she is hurt. By chance, an attorney crosses paths with Lori and, pretending to be her boss, Lori takes the requested job to pair the lawyer with his future pa-in-law in a rustic setting. This is because the older man likes the outdoors and won't give his blessing to his daughter marrying a sissy! What place could be better than Lori's town in Louisiana, where there is fishing, hiking, and bird-watching? That's right, Loretta takes the odd pair there. But, of course, Wayne has to pretend her name is Amy and is not very happy his ex is lying, even if its a white lie. Plus, does Loretta have any feelings for Wayne anymore? Does Wayne still have eyes for Loretta? Will the lawyer gain admiration from his grouchy future relative? This is a sweet and saucy romance from, what else, Hallmark company. It's terrific with spectacular scenery, nice scripting, and fine direction. Spring into action, fans, and bring this home.
