My Christmas Fiancé

Despite of the negative reviews most gave, this movie has substance. It delivered a message that people are more important than money and you must be independent of your own thoughts and life and not worry about others. Two unlikely people discovered that and through a plot to appease others discovered love for themselves. This movie was charming. Hallmark or Lifetime couldn't have done a better. The main characters were notable. I must say that the actress that played the nemesis was dull, overall the actors were interesting it for yourself and you will be pleasantly surprised. It is charming!

I like the cheesy "I need a fiance/fiancee for a holiday" plot line. My favorite one is "My Fake Fiance" with Melissa Joan Hart. I like watching two people come up with this terrible idea for convenience, but end up falling in love for real. This movie, unfortunately, falls flat. The acting is wooden, the setting feels inauthentic, the writing is terrible and where is the character development? There's one character who just kind of appears to suddenly have all this knowledge about one of the MCs. How? Why? Don't know. What seemed like a good idea on paper, doesn't translate to the screen. Don't waste your time with this one, go watch a better hallmarkish type of movie instead.

This is one of the most ridiculous movies I have tried to watch. The plot is choppy and acting is not great to say the least. Nothing in this film felt relatable. This is no hallmark or lifetime Christmas special that's cheesy yet heartwarming. It appears as if the developers of this film gave us the bare minimum of what it takes to produce a romantic family style holiday movie, but everything in between was very lacking. The characters are not dynamic and they have no real background and we sort of don't get to know who these people are throughout the entire film. This is just bad, bad writing with horrible acting. I usually expect very little from this sort of genre, but this film didn't even give me that.

Did I roll my eyes several times? Yes. Did the ending make sense? No. Did it transcend the Christmas romance genre? Absolutely not. Actually, the romance kind of took a backseat to the restaurant story, probably to the movie's benefit. I mostly liked the cast of characters, and while little screen time was given to the budding romance, there was some good chemistry at the few moments it was given. I do wish they had given the two a couple more scenes together before the pivotal moment to make the resolution more believable.

I wouldn't go out of my way to watch this, but if this is what you're in the mood for, it'll pass the time pleasantly.

This movie was very nicely made and enjoyable if you like the genre. The story was simple and already seen many times but the way is edited and the locations made me feel I can watch it again. This movie is something different from the thousand movies hallmark produce every year where everything is the same (even the poster). It's smooth and funny. I appreciated the Italian cast and I love their accent. I already knew the end, cause, c'mon is a rom-com but the way to get there was cute and sweet. Denise Richards was very funny and the female character was one of my fav in my childhood years. And then, Italy. The most Romantic place in the world.
