Crappy film

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I loved every minute of this movie even though I am WAY beyond the romantic stage of life. The dialog was great (closed caption necessary), all the characters were attractive and believable. I would like to meet every one of them. Love can be (probably must be) confusing and unsettling, especially to those who have loved and lost. In a way this movie is a textbook on maintaining personal integrity and a consistent purpose as the waves of emotion crash in, through betrayal, imagined and real, through misunderstandings and mistakes, through the intruding challenges of everyday life (well, maybe some of it was not "everyday").

This is a great movie, and any girl that is not married can relate to it. Even if you are married you will probably still enjoy it. The guys are adorable and of course frustrating (typical). The quotes are great--good writing. Marry Me is not predictable like a lot of Lifetime movies can be. After watching Part 1 I could not wait to watch Part 2 to find out what happens. The four hours go by really fast. You will enjoy this movie. As for her family not being oriental she explains she was adopted more than once. No where in this movie did she come off as selfish. She knows what she wants, and refuses to settle. Last I checked that was a good thing.

First of all, I don't think I'm going to be able to stand watching the whole movie just to find out who she marries--the whole movie feels a little shallow to me, other than being a foster parent to the young girl--probably put in the movie to make her seem less shallow? But one thing seems strange--she's the only oriental in the family? No mention of being adopted or did I perhaps miss that? I figured at first after seeing her mother (Annie Potts I believe? I always love her in whatever she does), that the father would be oriental. Just seems a little strange and something that is pretty noticeable to remain unexplained. And I guess I don't care enough to find out who she marries--Justified just came on and I've been wanting to check it out. It has to have more substance.

And coming from me, that's saying something bc Lifetime movies in the last 8-9 years have been ridiculous with all the man=hating, sex, death (oh excuse me MURDER) movies. I used to watch Lifetime in college, but now I don't even bother except for Frasier reruns. But I digress.I saw the preview for this on Hallmark (I think) and as a fan of LL's from back in the Ally McBeal days, and this movie seemed light and fun, so I made plans to tune in. I was verrry pleasantly surprised! The writing was great, the actors were great (very rare that not a single character irritates me), and it was just a great miniseries to watch.From the previews, I thought it was going to be fantasy-based, but it wasn't. One thing I liked about this romance is that they acknowledged that everything was happening fast. One thing I hate about TV movies/romcoms is that everything usually happens in less than a week, so it just seems weird, but even though this one probably took place in 3 months, that fact was lampshaded enough...and then... SPOILER.....Lucy's character still waited a year to get married. So you can imagine that whichever of the guys she married, she still took the time to get to know him. Another pleasant surprise was that, it was only 50/50 percent predictable. I had my #1 guy, but I honestly thought they were going to switch it up...so I was somewhat on the edge of my seat. This could become a Lifetime classic, and I prefer movies like this one and The 12 Men of Christmas to all the killing movies they show.P.S. If I may have a shallow moment: I really loved Lucy's wardrobe! Whomever styled her did a fantastic job.
