Mariés malgré eux

The general story of this movie is a complete knockoff of While You Were Sleeping. It is hard to better Sandra Bullock. Yet Rhiannon Fish, whom I've never noticed before, is excellent as quirky Tenley. I happen to love quirky. She and Edward Ruttle have chemistry, mostly thanks to Fish.

The story is a bit wild even if predictable, but anything coming out of this premise is going to be a little wild. Larissa is a nice touch because the viewer knows something is up. Betsey has the confidence of someone much older, but she also adds a good element to the story.

We all want to escape reality, which is why we love to watch movies. Even though the story line is similar to 'while you were sleeping'. It is still a very good movie to watch. The female lead character is played so well. She draws you into the story with her charm, optimism and kindness. Who would not fall for Tenley. Highly recommended to all who wish to escape the harsh reality of life and be swept up by the optimistic romance. A feel good film.

Do any of you watch Hallmark??? Almost every movie is predictable in that you know right from the start that somehow these two people are going to end up together, whoever that couple is. It's the journey and imagination that makes it enjoyable. Someone said the lead actress was annoying, but I thought she was absolutely quirky adorable. Someone else said there was no chemistry, but I disagree. Yes, the premise was stolen to some degree from a Sandra Bullock movie. However what happened and how deeply she got her self into the mess and why was not the same. The only thing that bothers me, and it always bothers me in these TV romcoms, is when the two people get together finally after two hours, they kiss and the movie is abruptly over. It would be nice to see a little bit more of what happens next. Even five minutes more! But as soon as there is a kiss, the movie end. That being said, I still recommend it.

Who needs to watch the movie when the trailer gave it all away?!

I usually like these made-for-TV romantic comedies. I know that they're cheesy, but they're usually enjoyable. This one is junk. The lead female is annoying and has zero chemistry with the guy she ends up with at the end of the film. I watched the first act and decided I could not waste another hour and 15 minutes watching. I skipped straight to the last act.

Terrible script, terrible acting, terrible direction. Terrible movie. (As a Canadian, I am appalled to think that government money was likely given to this production.)
