The Love Club

5.9 stars.

Somewhere amidst a genius concoction, and a cast of potentially likable characters, stands "The Love Club". Unfortunately, I felt the need to bail out after a sassy girl and a prissy girl let a seemingly genuine guy have a thorough whipping; meanwhile another girl remained neutral and the last girl was somewhat indifferent. After all of this confusion had transpired and "The Love Club" had been devastated by the bull in a china shop that I will refer to as a dead end script and a lifeless pairing of two actors, I am spent...

What a supreme disappointment that started off so full of promise, with an original idea and four women who appeared to be up to the challenge. I lost interest as It was starting to deflate a quarter of the way in, and was totally flat by the half-way point. I stuck around simply out of curiosity to witness the inevitable derailment of one of the most wrecked stories ever given the green light by Hallmark.

The lead female is completely impossible. I have liked her in every other role she's done, so why did they have to ruin her for this? She comes off as rigid and snappy, and not a woman I'd pine for even remotely as he does. The other three women are hit and miss and I could delve into each one individually, but I don't feel like taking the extra time. I will simply add that they don't jive as a group of old friends, but rather seem forced and awkward too often, especially for women in their 30's.

And then there's the final reveal of the true pen pal, which was most unwanted and best left a mystery as I shivered in revulsion at the whole scene.

This film is rotten. WARNING: KEEP OUT!

It was boring from the very first few minutes.

It was unbelievable the story and the cast had no real relationship with each other even the friends.

It was a lie movie.

But not only that it was not interesting to watch.

The plot was awful, I kept on hoping to enjoy it even a little bit.

I think they tried to copy The Wedding Veil 👰 Series but not even close. I loved the entire Wedding Veil Series but this deserves only 1 star for trying.

These are 30 year old actresses why were they trying to act like teenagers??

They looked so bored lol

Sorry but I never hated a movie so much.

I was looking forward to this.

Don't waste your time... Just awful in every way.

This "movie" is absolutely one of the most horrible in Hallmark's history. Truly unwatchable and disgusting. The actors should feel guilty to grace this this "film" with their presence. (Talk about selling out for the Benjamins!!) Disgusting in every way. Terrible script and storyline. For instance, the hapless "fiancé" was treated as disposal, insignificant trash by the lead female actor, who was portrayed as an innocent, helpless "love"victim (I won't mention her real name for fear of permanently associating her acting career with this piece of garbage). Needless to say, the writers, producers, and actors responsible for this movie should be ashamed of themselves. PLEASE don't produce any followup films and the thought of a "Love Club" series is terrifying.

Although I was very happy to see Brittany Bristow and Marcus Rosner in the leading roles, this movie was extremely difficult to sit through and I could hardly wait for it to end. I became bored fairly early in and it was ridiculous for the Nicole character to be so upset with Josh when she, herself, was an audacious liar. With regard to the girlfriends, the Tara character was the least likable on so many levels. These actors may be talented but no one could possibly make that determination from this movie since they were shortchanged by a really bad script and direction. I plan to skip any of the other movies in this series as this was not an enjoyable experience. Hallmark, you can do better!

I have a high tolerance for Hallmark movies but this was horrid. Maybe the plot would work if the characters were middle schoolers but they are adults. You know Nicole is in trouble when one of her first lines is about wanting to find a man to complete her. Fast forward ten years and she still has the same mind set. She ends up engaged to a guy who is a caricature of the typical Hallmark bad boyfriend, which is saying something. So she sets out to find her college pen pal with whom she felt a connection by cyberstalking him then messing with the remodeling of his business. Which he finds okay because he too felt a connection. That's all in the first third of the movie. It just goes downhill from there.

There were some funny lines and I liked Josh but Nicole is so neurotic and insecure I just couldn't finish. She should be a cautionary tale, not the heroine. And this movie falls into the sexist trope that the woman can lie and scheme with impunity but let the man out one for wrong and he has to grovel for forgiveness. No thanks.
