Then Came You

Not a great plot. Not a great script. Not great acting. But the scenery is incredible. Treat it as a travelogue for Scotland.

I liked the story line and of course the scenery was gorgeous. He has great charm and was amusing, but their chemistry was not really there and the scenes with the crass humor and mild profanity were unexpected and off putting for me. I had higher expectations for this than it delivered. It was just ok, seen worse and also much better.

...I have to be honest, so here we go. The best part of the movie is the castle and the scenery. It is Scotland so it is beautiful and breathtaking and the castle is perfection, and I've seen quite a few. The second best part is Craig Ferguson. He is gorgeous and funny and he is delightful in everything he does. Ford Kiernan is great, although he doesn't really get a proper chance to shine in this movie. Here is the hard part. Kathie Lee Gifford was absolutely awful. I mean bad. I used to watch 'Regis & Kathie Lee' and loved it, but it was like she walked off that stage and right into this movie, as herself, not an actress. I feel bad because I believe that she is a lovely person in real life, and strives to bring joy wherever she is, but it doesn't mean that she can act. It was truly painful to watch most of the time, but the scenery made it worth most of the pain. She almost wrecked the entire thing. It's a nice but very Hallmark-y movie. Unless you adore those silly movies, then you probably won't like this one. Very American and not enough Scottish for me. Sorry Kathie Lee.

Scenery was outstanding, Scotland is so beautiful. The movie, written by KLG, was terrible. A romantic movie with one kiss in the whole movie? Not realistic. Craig Ferguson, the male lead, did a good job but, KLG, the female lead, cannot act. It was uncomfortable to watch her realizing her acting hasn't improved with age.

If I watch a romantic film, I want to feel something. This was a fairly pretty formulaic second chance type romance (widow who loved husband moving on with life) He and she start off finding each other annoying and irritating and it goes from there. Even at the high point (as always in romance - there is that darkest hour is just before dawn moment) I just didn't care. Zero feels. Zero romance. Decent acting from Mr. Ferguson but Ms. Gifford - well, an actress she is not. As mentioned by others - fabulous scenery.
