Mr. Manhattan

Perhaps the best GAF or Hallmark movie in a long time. Great script and great acting. The story has a variety of parallel storylines including business clients, careers, children, and romance. Great writing for dialog between kids, who were struggling lost parents, and lead actors. The child actors were charming and entertaining. The story deals with several tough realistic life issues and offers sound advice at difficult crossroads for the various challenges each of the characters are facing. The movie is set in NYC which plays an entertaining and instrumental role in the storyline, adding to the dynamic storyline.

This one had me from the beginning. This was a great film with no petty, silly moments or characters and lots of depth. I can't understand the negative comments in prior reviews. The Penavegas did a good job and the 2 kids were terrific. Even the landlady(mean old thing😊) was a great character. There was never too much time spent on negative aspects, those moments were kept moving at a good pace. There were enough obstacles to make the plot realistic and I loved the faith element ( which I did not find preachy). Just a good and uplifting movie that left me feeling satisfied. I didn't have any issue with the sound quality, so maybe that was fixed somehow.

Good evening, Just finished watching the movie. Needed a tissue. Was only familiar with part of the story. Worked BG in NYC. Was able to see myself for a second in the park scene when they were walking and back view at the baseball field. Loved watching this wonderful, real husband and wife and their portrayal. Realistic and totally believable. They are my favorites and watch all their films when they are on. Didn't realize who they were. Just saw two awesome actors who were so professional. I highly recommend seeing Mr. Manhattan! Has everything. Joy, tears, conflict and above all...faith. Very interesting how life changes when faced with a new challenge.

I don't know what movie the two negative reviewers watched, but it can't have been Mr. Manhattan. I'm a person who always has to have the CC on and I never felt the need for it once here. And although the faith element was (comparatively) quite forward, it was by no means as "in your face" as movies of this genre can be.

Cliche and predictable it may be (I didn't find it to be too much of either, myself) but sometimes you just need to watch something where everything turns out for the best and the deus ex machina character (Mr. Stonehouse in this case) doesn't pound the viewer over the head with his role. Sometimes in today's world, you just need to fill out a couple hours with a feel-good movie and this fits the bill quite nicely without being too over the top.

To say this was brutal is an understatement. The lead characters are married in real life and this most always leads to a train wreck. Acting was weak at best, storyline incredibly predictable. While watching my gf and I were saying the lines before they were actually spoken. This service asks if my review contains a spoiler. If you can't predict the outcome 10 mins into the movie, you've been living in a box. This is a heavy faith based movie which made it a little preachy (pardon the pun). Don't know why we bothered, guess it was a slow TV night. I should have watched my grass grow instead. This was a BIG miss for me.
