Under a Lover's Moon

Romantic TV movies don't need to be pretentious or deep, but they do have to amuse you and make you feel better at the end. This one doesn't do either.

The lead actress is plain awful. Her character (Ava) is annoying from the very first minute. Not quirky, not relatable, just annoying. Self-obsessed, judgemental, dominant, childish, superficial, neurotic.

The supporting characters aren't much better. Really no idea why the two guys (Brett and Kyle) are fighting over her except for stupid masculine pride or testosterone maybe. Run, boys, run!

Examples of the very poor writing: she falls asleep on a airbed in the swimmingpool. She falls over and doesn't seem to wake up or try to get out of the pool. Not believable at all. Both male leads are trying to build the highest pile of sand in a contest and the winner gets to take her out. Really? And due to a misunderstanding Ava and Brett broke up when they were in high school, but apparently he didn't bother to clear that up when they got back together and got engaged.

It's filled with cliches. Usually that's quite acceptable - there are only so many ways to tell a love story - but somehow that irritated me in this movie.

Not worth your time, unless you want to get annoyed.

How this movie ever made it to TV is beyond me. The lead was the most annoying person ever and she never improved! Wanting the ex to apologise, not listening To his reason for calling of the wedding, but then why did she not understand why he called off the wedding. She's an absolute nutcase!

Curious what resort was the setting for this!?

Really not worth watching! Lead actress was beyond annoying!

Concept was Stupid, actors were horrific, UP TV should do better! No way was this any good, can't accept a guy leaving a girl at the alter and being forgiven, and the lists by the bride were asinine!

The female character is a control freak who gets dumped by her high school sweetheart just before getting married. He (but not me) thinks he made a mistake and travels towards their former honeymoon destination in order to Change her mind. I considered giving a 5 but refrained from that impulse given that it's ending offers some hope for future improvement.
