Lune de miel en solo

They actually filmed this at that castle and it was so beautiful. I didn't know that until I see where they filmed it on this IMDb page. I thought it might have been just a backdrop for visual affect, but it was real. I've never seen such a pretty castle, but I hear Ireland is gorgeously green. The movie was cute, but average for me. I still liked it because it's Hallmark and these kind of movies will never get a poor rating from me because they are about love, which is me! I've seen this movie in the past as well, so I remembered it. It's worth one watch.

It only got stars at all because of the scenery.

Absolutely no chemistry between the leading characters. Acting is wooden. Plot is the same as 90% of the Hallmark series involving a high-powered company executive, a much-loved salt of the earth type who has an adorable child and a dead wife/husband, a fiancé/fiancée who is a total smarmy creep, and a sudden epiphany by the leading man/woman about true love and what matters in life. A waste of time when you know exactly what the ending will be in the first 10 minutes of the movie.

Doesn't Hallmark have any other formula to follow? Time for a whole new writing staff!

I was disappointed with this movie. The storyline was a typical love story formula, but I expected that so that was okay. What I did not care for was Nicollette Sheridan's acting ability, or lack of ability. She had no depth and displayed but two moods, mad and happy. She was unable to portray deeper feelings which led me to not empathizing with her character. Considering Greg Wise can endear himself with a raise of an eyebrow, I sat there wondering "why did they match up these two actors?" At the same time, I held out hope that it could be salvaged with a spark igniting between them. But, here was the real disappointment: the two actors lacked chemistry between each other...and in a love story, the right chemistry is crucial in making the formula work.

If you've read my reviews, you've seen that one of my first lines of criticism for this type of Rom/com is overused cliché plot devices. This movie may have a couple (OK the leads start off with the obligatory antagonism), but I didn't notice because many of the plot devices are different, even unique. I can't think of a honeymoon-for-one story. There are some interesting developments later in the movie also. The story kept moving just enough to hold me.

I'm not a fan of Nicollette Sheridan, and her character early on was such I had doubts I was going to like Eve at any point. But of course, at some point the arrogant rich boss persona softened. Her meeting Kathleen, Katie Bannon (interesting that IMDb has no information on her other than this movie), was a good start, and their relationship did a lot for the movie. I'm guessing that her accent isn't fake and she certainly is a charming representation of an Irish pre-teen.

Did Sheridan and Greg Wise have chemistry? I really didn't see much.

There were a few laughs here and there, many of which inspired by Eve's clumsiness.

The music was slightly distracting, but I didn't have trouble hearing conversation. The music doesn't affect my rating.

I absolutely loved, loved, loved this movie!!!!! The characters were so sweet and great for each other, and were such naturals, you couldn't help but love them both!!!!!! . This warm hearted, land loving man from Ireland ends up sweeping Eve Parker off her feet and as they are beginning to fall in love, her ex-fiancé shows up in Ireland to try to win her back, to no avail. Her heart is won over by this chivalrous fun-loving man who wants to save the land. He was great, she was great; his heart was big,subtle, and she couldn't help but falling in love with him. I loved the theme, the scenery was great,it was fun loving, romantic, and funny. Both their roles were funny at times; these two characters just became so good for each other with big hearts and that sweet something special! They were absolutely, definitely my favorite characters on Hallmark, it had a lot of spunk!!! I would so love to see them together in another good movie!
