Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

ThedevilChoose 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.

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Kim Ren Come on people... this is Hallmark... not Masterpiece Theater. It is what it is and although based on Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice, there should be NO comparison to the book or BBC series whatsoever. This is by far one of my more favorite Hallmark movies and I loved it. As with all Hallmark movies, the romance is a bit weak at best (need more kissing & groping - how could one keep their hands of Ryan Paevy). I hope they step it up a bit in the sequel, Marrying Mr Darcy, which will air on Hallmark Channel in June 2018. The lead character, Ryan Paevy (Donovan Darcy), is dishy and very easy on the eyes. If Hallmark did anything right with this show it is in casting a gorgeous hunk to play Mr Darcy. He is exactly who I picture now when I read Pride & Prejudice. Well done!

ladymustang-12160 I had heard good things about this movie, so I was looking forward to it. But this is the first Hallmark movie that I can remember where there really is nothing redeeming about it.First off, as someone who used to show dogs, their entire depiction of dog shows was just absolutely laughable. There was nothing even remotely realistic about it. There are some dogs in the ring, but then the female lead gets called in separately by number? And then leaves again and then comes back for final review? Yeah, no, that's not how it works. The so-called judge barely touches the dog. And why are there several different types of dogs in the ring at once? And no, they don't hang the ribbons around the necks of the handlers. Oh my gosh. Just no. Completely absurd.Now I've got that off my chest, this is a rare Hallmark movie where there is absolutely zero chemistry between the leads. And the story itself was so poorly crafted that it was impossible to believe these two were falling in love. They barely spent more than 5 minutes together at a time; they never really talked in any kind of depth to get to know each other; he was supposed to be the rude one, but he came across as being fairly polite while she was always rude, so why the heck would he fall in love with such a witch? Even the subplot with the privileged dad who got her fired was absurd. It started out okay with him getting her fired. I can believe the board taking the side of the rich patron over a teacher, but the idea that he would sue her was beyond stupid, and having him show up at the party was nonsensical. The man got what he wanted when he got her fired; the rest of it was just overkill and just lazy writing.I generally love Hallmark movies and can forgive a lot in them because they're usually just fun, but this one was a waste of my time. I was so disappointed in it. Just nothing unfortunately to recommend it. :(

thuperthtuff I saw a poster review regarding Lizzy's name being Scott instead of Bennett. It's Bennet. The transition from dislike to like was reading Darcy's letter. Like the book. She showed her half-like, half-dislike; actually that was my biggest annoyance, her staring off into space thinking about him then being a jerk in person. Which is nowhere near the treatment in Bride & Prejudice.This movie *does* have *some* bad acting. Because it's a cheesy Hallmark film, not because of the story-line.I have read Pride and Prejudice five times. I have seen all but three versions. Watching this the first time I didn't see too much "adaptation." Didn't see much Romeo & Juliet the first time I watched Warm Bodies, either. Watching this more than once, I saw more and more connections. Fine eyes. Terrier description vs female accomplishments. The aunt, Bingleys (Robson). Calling Lizzy a snob about Darcy's wealth. One thing in this I have yet to see in *any other adaptation*, is the number of random encounters. Accidental meets. If you've read P&P you know how many times they run into each other. Another instance, she doesn't realize she's at the Darcy Estate...so she didn't expect to see Darcy there. Ring any bells? Darcy defending her to his aunt. Georgiana raised and protected by Darcy. Darcy in a pool--which is in two adaptations, *not* in the book. Darcy talking smack while Robson is naming Lizzy's good qualities. Lots of adaptation, if you're willing to look for it.

jrfosterwt Loved the actor that played Donovan Darcy - and when he stepped from the pool in those swim shorts - all memories of the pond scene with Colin Firth's Mr. Darcy (Pride and Prejudice 1995) left my head...I didn't much care for how the leads switched places - like rotating around each other when they're interacting. I guess it was a way to show they attracted like opposite magnets that even will flip (in love) and come towards each other. Plus, I love all the dogs in the film (being a mother to 6 canines myself). And remember, with all the interpretations of Pride and Prejudice that are out there, even if you are doing it in some misguided way to show a woman how much you love her, you DO NOT list all the things wrong with her, her family, etc. before you propose to her. You love someone for themselves and IN SPITE of themselves, but list what all you think is wrong with me then act like all is well and here comes the happy ending. Expect more from yourself and the woman you're meant to be with.
