Un deseo irlandés

The story had really nice potential, but unfortunately it was wasted. A lot of things should be written better, it seems like some stories were suddenly cut, like something is missing. Some scenes really felt unnatural. We needed to see more of her relationship with her friends, especially her relationship with Emma.

Lindsay was great as always, but she was not enough to make this movie look better. Chemistry in my opinion is very important in romcom movies and she definitely had more chemistry with Ed than Alexander that is why there should have been more scenes with him.

The ending was too rushed it should have been longer and better written.

Lindsay Lohan is a very talented actress! I love her & don't understand why she chose this movie. Here are some of the things that didn't work in the movie and what she should consider when choosing her next project: 1. Horrible costume design - really hideous outdated wardrobe for all the women especially. Those bridesmaid dresses were ill-fitting and you could see all the undergarment lines, etc. - just unprofessional costuming.

2. The script was dull with unimaginative dialogue and plot lines that just did not work at all. There was no time & development to build up the relationships to make any of them believable.

3. The hairstyles were frumpy & outdated - from another era - especially Lindsay's never ending hair length that was styled like an elementary school-aged girl.

5. The makeup on her friends looks like it was painted on like a mask and they looked like their faces were pumped up with Botox, lip filler -etc. They looked very unauthentic as real women in their late 20's to early 30's. These Hallmark-type movies have to stop either hiring or encouraging women 30-40 years old to do this to their face. These women look freakish, unreal and look clownish as if playing caricatures of themselves.

6. Weird casting with the groom's mother looking a few decades younger than her husband and having her dressed in pearls, matronly clothes and her Irish accent didn't sound Irish. Please stop giving women actresses over 40 ugly hairstyles from the 1950's - it looks stupid & it's not representative of how women 40-60 REALLY look! When will these movies stop these dumb stereotypes in casting/makeup/casting/script, etc?

The scenes of Ireland were beautiful and music was nice, though way over the top dramatic for certain scenes. With Brad Krevoy & other veterans of these types of movies on board, the movie should have been much better.

Lindsay - you're great! Keep trying and keep looking for better scripts that are worth your talent!

The idea is cute enough (nothing new, but sweet). However, the acting sounds like a high school play. There is zero chemistry between any of the romantic partners. The plot doesn't build, it's just dropped in your lap. When the equivalent of the fairy godmother shows up it's as cheesy as a made-for-TV Disney movie. I can't figure out what happened to LL. Her face is different, her voice is different. She doesn't have her sweet quirkiness. If I didn't know it was her, I would have no idea this was the same actress from Mean Girls and. Freaky Friday. I realize that we all grow up, but her acting was flat in this film.

Yes, a thousand times. This movie is basically "Freaky Friday meets "Made of Honor" crossed with "My Best Friend's Wedding." However, it was great seeing Ayesha Curry and of course Lindsay Lohan. Jane Seymour too. Just enjoy the movie for what it is. It's actually entertaining if you don't look too much into it. I was honestly engaged enough to see how Maddie's wish turned back around into the actual situation. And even though I knew how it would turn out, I was still happy at the end. Great movie to watch with your daughters or nieces, which doesn't happen very often nowadays. Nice 80's soundtrack too.

For reference, I'm a 63-year-old straight male. I enjoy chick-flicks more than a lot of women do, it seems, and I enjoyed this one. I'm not sure if the folks who gave this under 5 stars simply have it out for Lindsay Lohan or were expecting something other than what the film wanted to be - a feel-good rom-com suited for all ages.

I know Ms. Lohan has gone through some difficult times, but I don't know that her acting was ever the problem, and I think her acting is quite good here. I found her character very appealing, as were all the characters really (well, maybe except for the author's mother, but the actress played that role well). I found the acting to be just fine across the board, and while the film wasn't a gut-buster, there were a few moments that made me laugh out loud. And the film was far less 'sappy' than many of its genre. Obviously the storyline wasn't realistic, but it also obviously wasn't supposed to be.

I've been to Ireland and the cinematography has me wanting to return.

If you're in the mood for something lite with attractive scenery and music as well as a decent storyline and performances (even if we all know what's coming), I think this will fit the bill nicely.
