Love in the city

The misses likes the sordid side of the Lifetime movie, when I dive in I prefer the pleasant side of the Hallmark movies. We got not too far into this and I had to let the misses know that, sadly, this was Hallmark-bound even if the Lifetime logo was bottom right. Christenson does an attractive and believable turn in these sort of things and the other actors were pretty solid, at least Hallmark-style. Is Lifetime realizing that pleasant can sometimes beat unpleasant? I don't know but this sure seemed to be on the wrong channel.

Primarily. I think everybody who gave it a good review must have confused it with another film Secondarily.

I watched it in a UK Channel Five crime series screened in the matinee slot. After fifty minutes of tedium. I was still waiting for the murder. It never happened.

Instead I was bombarded by inane vacuous philosophical yawp. Spoken by wooden characters. Who firmly believed we live forever and can have everything.

Oh dear. Are some people in for a rude awakening ? One hundred years ago. Only a short time relatively. Our forebears felt they were lucky to be alive, valued each day given to them and counted their blessings. No matter how terrible any of their lives might have appeared. They just thanked God for it and never complained this stupid film seems to perpetrate a myth which if believed will inevitably result in impressionable souls being seduced by a total fiction If you live in the real world as I do. Ignore this fairy tale.

No! No psycho. This was actually a romcom. I agree with another reviewer. I thought I had accidentally recorded a Hallmark movie. I hate Hallmark movies. But this was a pretty good movie. Normal, if you know what I mean. I kept waiting for someone to become all psycho but it never happened. It was about love, marriage, friendship and adultery, without a psycho.

The cast is good. Everyone's character is believable. The acting is above average. The storyline is a little slow but it keeps you entertained.

Why on earth did sweet, wholesome Alice (Erika Christensen) think she could become one of the shiny people. She couldn't see Joe (Antonio Cupo) for who he really is. It took her so long to figure it out. How could she not have known Harry's (Andy Favreau) feelings. It was obvious throughout the entire movie. The movie ended happily. It was a hallmark movie moment.

This was one part Lifetime and one part Hallmark. It was a great mix between the two. I wish there were more like this one.

This film was ok but having read the info I thought it was going to be a tense, mild-thriller type movie about a controlling husband. I waited for him to become this controlling psycho... And waited... And waited. He controls her to a point but not as much as I was expecting. All in all, bit of a dull movie. Great ending but slightly boring and nothing really happens.
