Married by Mistake

Usually really enjoy all Hallmark movies, looking at them purely as entertainment. Usually the plot or lack therof doesn't bother me. Unfortunately this movie was a big swing and a miss. Way too formulaic, was simplistic and easy to figure out as soon as she had met Rhys and he turned out to be Nate's brother. There were absolutely no surprises, in fact the only way that they could've pulled it out of the toilet was if the Nate and Riley characters had ended up together. Huge disappointment and waste of time. The grandmother, Faye was well cast and we did enjoy her character. Also, the turtle was an interesting pet. That said, still a huge waste of time.

2023 should not have this. This movie has multiple cliches that are so obvious and unnecessary. First, the Hangover incident and yes, a wedding at Las Vegas. Then a secret successful main act who owns a chain of business...and of course the black sheep of the family (a brother) who meets the girl accidentally. And who said a 'Maria' has to have a daughter and be homeless? This movie should have given Nate a happily ever after with Riley after all he was a gentleman and the ex was already 'engaged'. And the punch by the brother for expressing himself was so unwarranted. This was a Hallmark movie gone wrong.

The positive? This movie has a good looking cast. The negative? Every single thing else. I really really hoped for the best (in spite of my instincts) but it was just so so bad. The storyline is insanely ridiculous and outrageous. There is nothing remotely believable in it other than student loans being expensive and some workers have it really hard. I don't know how they signed off on the plot because it's a really hard sell, well except for the eye candy I guess. Bottomline: If you're looking for something to escape reality and just pass time then this movie will serve that but if you want a meaningful movie that'd stay with you then skip.

I was so much disappointed with this movie, it started on a good note but the story turned way around to what I was hoping to see, one of the worst stories really in my watch history... Am even pissed that I had to watch it because it is so annoying. I really hoped the story would be in such a way that Riley ends up with Nate but that didn't happen, I am really disappointed by this🙁 What is even more annoying is the fact that Nate shows a little bit of interest in Riley but then there is no chemistry at all towards the end. Not even a little chemistry to show they are married, I just wanted Riley to end up with Nate, maybe the story would have been better.
