Made for Each Other

I don't usually like Hallmark movies, cause they're usually boring and uninteresting. But this one is different. It's funnier than the rest of Hallmark rom-coms, and it's not as rigid as other Hallmark dramas. The idea is very unique, using Golem as a medium in rom-com. Cause from what I've learned about Golems, that's not how they're made. And that's certainly not how they look like. But I guess we can be a little more versatile in its application? But I'm rambling now. Back to the movie, it's well delivered, well acted, and not to mention has a great moral value for everyone about love : it's not about perfection, it's about what you need.

7.8 stars.

I really like the lead actress in "Made for Each Other" and I really hope to see more of her in the future. She needs to become a Hallmark regular for sure. In this story she plays a sculptor who is down on her confidence due to several rejections of her works to be accepted more widely in the art community. She has fashioned a beautiful man sculpture, and she wishes so fervently that he was real that he actually comes to life, and is the perfect man. She has had difficulties dating men, because she is very picky, artsy, cynical, and sarcastic...all traits that might send any suitor running for the door. She happens to fall for a comedian while she's fallen for her sculpted golem man. You have to watch it to understand, because while this might be confusing, it's what transpires in this intriguing film.

Chemistry is amazing, the acting is amazing, the variety of characters are all well rehearsed and work very well together. This is almost a must see. I love the comedy fun interactions between the leads and the golem is a funny genius dud. Again, you have to see it to understand. Lovely and original take on Pygmalion they say. I suppose it is circuitously so.

This movie was hilariously bad. It seems like the makers of this movie understood the idea of hilariously bad movies because a lot of other Hallmark movies are just cheesy bad or painfully cheesy bad. I honestly laughed out loud many times while watching this. And not during the stand up comedy sets, oh boy those were painful. Lots of overacting. Her sister's fiancee for example. And that ending was really something else. A lot of people are complaining about Teryl Rotherys' character but I thought she was very funny. And last but not least, Clay was the star of this movie. I need a sequel but with him as the main character.

This film is really charming! Rachel, the lead character, is very relatable. She brings her statue of "the perfect man" to life, like Pygmalion with Galatea. The two guys interested in her were extremely different, but both appealing in their way. Clay is a giant puppy. I love that his name is Clay! David has an edge in just the right way.

The story has the perfect message overall. I laughed all through the ending. An excellent romcom for Hallmark.

The side characters were well-rounded and specific. I enjoyed the fun Jewish details. This is a great movie to cuddle on the couch with and enjoy!

This thinly disguised remake of the 2011 Hallmark film "Holly's Holiday" gives a Jewish AND gender twist to the Pygmalion story, and manages to mangle every aspect of it despite some deft humor. It has an edgier feel than most Hallmark offerings in places, but completely blows it with one of the stupidest, most unbelievable, badly staged endings in Hallmark history. When will Hallmark learn that the public airing of the romantic finale in front of a fawning audience is a real turn off? No doubt die hard fans of the channel will laud it to the skies, but more sane observers will wonder why they watched it at all.
