Highly Overrated But Still Good
... View MoreBest movie ever!
... View MoreWhile it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
... View MoreI enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
... View MoreStory lacks imagination; same cookie cutter schtick Hallmark puts out..movie...after movie...after painful movie. No imagination to the tale at all. Characters were dull as ditchwater although Catherine Bell's character was also really annoying. Her acting was forced. It's annoying that the fact she's a doctor comes up in each and every #!@!*! SENTENCE.The only reprieve is the fabulous setting and view.Something that Hallmark has taken to doing that is really annoying is to avoid people from showing they are aging, they are using technology to apply a light blur to everyone's faces. Idiotic notion and insulting to both the actors and the viewing audience.
... View MoreI hope that the cast and crew had fun making this Hallmark movie, because it wasn't much fun watching it. The scenery in Fiji looked beautiful. The story was the most basic paint-by-numbers that you will ever see on the Hallmark Channel. Catherine Bell and Cameron Mathison are easy on the eyes, and John Prasida and Sarah Thamin seem to be sweet.The story was terrible. There was no conflict at all. Paul O'Brien's character is written poorly as a rival for Catherine's affections. We don't see why Catherine overworks in her ER doctor job, or why she is so attracted to working at working as a doctor in Fiji. And Fiji is such a paradise, apparently only surfers need medical attention. There isn't even the Hallmark standard misunderstanding that splits up the couple near the climax.This is a great film to have on while folding laundry or cleaning house. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery and ignore the insipid story-line.
... View MoreJessica Tucker, a widow and doctor, is trying to juggle work and family. She takes a vacation to bond with her daughter, Jessica books a stay at a resort in Fiji and strikes up a friendship with Will, the charming owner of the resort. As Jessica and Will spend more time together, she begins to relax and starts to wonder if this island paradise can give her the life - and love - she's always hoped for. I'm not going to remember this movie and you know why? because it was a horrible piece of film that was badly written and directed but also the perfomances were bad.
... View MoreFinally, a HM worth raving about, all due to the fantastic casting, especially with the leads Catherine Bell and Cameron Mathison. It is so nice to see mature actors in HM movies, but I think these two were exceptional. No acting like they were younger, as has been done before, the Jessica character was very believable as a physician as is many times with the younger HM actresses is not the case. The teenage daughter was adorable. While it was formulaic, I totally believed something like this could happen. Great all around cast and the Fijian scenery was beyond breathtaking. Well worth seeing even for a second time as I plan to do this summer evening.
