Avis à la une
Unfortunately, the execution was anything but. Really do have to agree with everybody that has said that 'Ms Matched' is terrible and has almost nothing to recommend it. Personally have seen worse films overall, but as far as Hallmark films it is somewhere in the bottom end. It is definitely too one of their worst from 2016 and the worst June Weddings film from that year. Have liked Alexa PenaVega elsewhere but this is not a good representation of her or anybody else involved.
'Ms Matched's' least bad aspects are the production values and Shawn Roberts. The production values, especially the scenery are quite attractive.
Roberts, despite being an unusual choice for a love interest and maybe could have played the role softer, does inject some charm and charisma.
PenaVega is however completely flat as a character that is very sketchily developed (never rising above typical Hallmark cliche) and dull in personality. She and Roberts are hopelessly mismatched, do agree that they have nothing in common and the development of their very under-utilised romance is non existent to the extreme, they wouldn't even be believable as acquaintances. Neither of the two characters are interesting or likeable, with the film really overdoing Roberts' character's cluelessness. The supporting cast were clearly under-directed and act as if they had no idea how to play their roles, which to be honest gives them practically nothing to work with.
Furthermore, the direction is barely routine and is often static and aimless. The music is used too much and is too loud, also badly lacking in variety. The script is very stilted and is filled to the brim with the pongiest of cheese, cavity inducing sugary sentiment and dreariness, there is no wit or spark or anything emotional. There is no charm or heart in the storytelling, and the film badly suffers from the over the top lack of realism. Very little makes sense here, especially in the final act. Worst of all is the very rushed and sudden out of the blue-like complete 180 of an ending, which feels like an over convenient cheat.
Concluding, not worth bothering with. 2/10.
