The Love Club

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.

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.

The plot of this movie was awful. It was hard to get through. The lead in the movie "Nic" was insufferable. She lied about everything but gave Josh a hard time about his lies. I did not root for them to get together. I felt Josh could do better.

Nic spent the entire movie chasing the author of some letter from 10 years prior. And like most Hallmark movies it takes to the very end for her to discover that she was wrong. I know Hallmark lost a lot of their lead actresses/actors last year. Did they also lose their writers. Hallmark 2023 has been kinda bad so far. I'm holding out hope that it will get better.

I just had to come here and check out the ratings as I watched this monstrosity of a movie. It was just horrible. One of the worst movies I've ever watched on Hallmark. Seems like they were going for a Wedding Veil vibe with the girlfriends thing. It really was a dud from the beginning. The lack of emotion boyfriend/fiance. The sloppy proposal. Her fiance was barely mentioned again during this liefest. It just got worse and worse as the movie went along. I kept hoping something would happen to redeem this movie but it never happened. The lead was upset he lied when she was the biggest liar of them all. So much deception. Just hated this movie and all the characters. The bar guy might have been the only decent one in the movie. The whole wellness studio thing was so stupid. If you want to watch a horrible movie, by all means, watch this stinker that really isn't even worthy of 1*.
