The movie is just splendid! it has all you need for a romantic movie, the only thing that i "didn't like" was that the subject was "used" already or you know what will happened when you seen him that he goes in that dangerous mission. Any way its super romantic!both actors are beautiful. The title is perfect.I really want to see a second part of this movie something where we can see they're family , they're second love plus the love of Bill Fitzgerald's daughter or something , the place where the film was made is wonderful as well.The location is so romantic ... this film it has all what it needs to be a perfect romantic movie
Ok, so this movie is kind of hokey. But I still loved it. Janine Turner is beautiful, the Irish guy was a real dish and most charming. It's not deep, it didn't make me think. But for me, it was entertaining and fun. I've watched it several times.

Home in Toronto on a chilly early spring afternoon. Came across the film while browsing on YouTube and decided to give it a go. (TBH when I saw the on-screen pic I thought it was Robson Green. But not disappointed by Paudge Behan's contribution!)
Okay. It's formulaic but not a bad way to spend 90 minutes. You pretty well know how the plot's going to unfold never mind end but the performances are passable and the locales are lovely.
Heck, it's Barbara Taylor Bradford. What would you expect? It's no "A Woman of Substance" but that's okay.
IDK if I'd watch it again but not unhappy I found it. 👍👍

The love story is the usual: woman ,caught in commitment at
home, finds "true" love on trip to Venice and then Dublin. Fionella
Flanagan as the true love's Mother is wonderful as always. But
the photography of Venice is breathtaking. I could not believe how
beautiful all the well known scenes of Venice,plus some areas I
had never seen, were presented. I'd give it a 7 based on the photography.. She merits a 6 for acting,
he merits a 6.5 with Irish accent. Story: does she or doesn't she? Wait and see. This story is based on a book by Barbara Bradford. It is a romance
and will be appreciated more by women than the average man, but
there are a few romantic men out there, thank goodness,

I didn't read the book. Only saw the movie the day before yesterday. And I liked it!!! It's just a thing were I can think of the whole day. Fall in love wanted to marry then find some one better. Sounds a little bit stupid but I'm a dreamer. I love movies like this and I hope others too. Actually I like Paudge Behan he's so cute. And he plays very good. And you Jay I don't get it. Why are you watching a movie you just don't like?? Only to give bad comments. Or cause you really aren't interested in this movie. Well maybe I get my answer a day. But people it's a very good movie and what Jay finds I don't care. I hope you are going to watch it too!! Bye bye kisses Deborah
