Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Steineded How sad is this?
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
barbelyett Lucky in Love touches on a theme that is true for many of us - that the perfect life we've dreamed of may not be as perfect as we think. Mira Simon (Jessica Szohr) literally has her dream life dropped in her lap - dream career, dream apartment, dream guy. At first it's exciting but the more she lives her perfect life the less perfect it becomes for her. The experience of having it all enables her to understand that her real "perfect" life may be something other than what she envisioned, yet more perfect than what she could have ever imagined.
phd_travel Jessica Szhor of Gossip Girl plays an executive who gets a promotion upwards and meets her prince charming. However when she gets her promotion she struggles with being the boss instead of the underling and also has no place in her life for her new guy.There is a fairly predictable story about how she can't have it all - the career and the guy. It is so impossible? What's the message anyway - you can't have both? Jessica looks prettier than in GG. Wouldn't have pegged her look for the romantic lead always though she is more the supporting best friend. But she cleans up nicely. Benjamin Hollingsworth is her good friend who is secretly in love with her. The ending is predicable.
SnoopyStyle Mira Simon (Jessica Szohr) dreams of the perfect life. Her co-worker friend Jonah has a crush on her. It's April Fool's Day. Sophie tries to set her up but Mira pretends Liam as her new boyfriend. She delivers papers to a nice apartment and pranks her roommates that it's her new place. She pranks Jonah that she got a big promotion from CEO Erin Billings (Deidre Hall) and then she gets stuck in the elevator with her. Suddenly, all of her pranks come true but her new perfect life isn't quite as good as expected.This is a Hallmark movie. It's not a sin but this is so bland. It is lifeless. Jessica Szohr is a perfectly engaging lead. Jonah has the potential for a nice rom-com but he is no more than a side character. This simply lacks substance.
caseybones CONTAINS SPOILERSTypical formulaic schlock. If you couldn't foresee the ending in the first 10 minutes then you've never watched a Hallmark movie. And the intrusive bland tuneless piano music is relentless – I don't think there were more than 10 minutes in the whole movie where there was enough silence to hear the dialog.Girl is secretly loved by nerdy co-worker. Girl makes wishes (big promotion, handsome boyfriend, big house). Girl miraculously gets what she wished for (big promotion, handsome boyfriend, big house). Everything fine for 10 minutes and then everything starts to unravel (blows off friends who won't come to see her because her house is too far away, nerd leaves and takes another job, alienates team with her snotty attitude, allows handsome boyfriend to call the shots). Girl miraculously sees the light (inspires previous superior at work to become a better man, whips her team into shape and saves the day, sees new boyfriend as the shallow cad that he is, and realizes that she and the nerd were meant to be). Requisite "running through the streets because can't get a cab and arriving too late" scene followed by meeting the nerd just by chance and seeing the light. That's two hours of my life I'll never get back.
