Lovewrecked

I saw it at the 1st Annual Dominican Republic Int'l Film Festival at the Sun Village Resort in Puerto Plata (as already stated, this is the location where it was filmed). I thought it was pretty good. The version they showed us was still in a rough cut stage.

It is most definitely a movie for fans of Amanda. I'm not a big fan but I like her acting style and her "cuteness factor." I would recommend the movie to anyone looking for a light hearted youthful sort of teeny-Hopper movie.

As for the filming location, I would recommend Sun Village to anyone looking for a great Caribbean Vacation. :) Best, Dan

I liked this movie. Yeah, the story line is pretty unrealistic and ridicilous, but it had some good laughs, and it left me feeling good. Amanda Bynes is charming in this role, the location is gorgeous., the end was kind of sloppy but overall this movie was good fun.

I saw the updated Shakespeare/de-Vere play "She's the Man", and saw the trailer for this flick. I'd been wanting to rent it at Blockbuster because it looked like it might be worth a chuckle or two. So there I am in the local Safeway, buying some cereal and milk when I spot the "Love Wrecked" DVD on the impulse rack for three bucks. I'm thinking there's a reason it's $3 (American), but I'm also thinking "Meh, how bad could it be?" I mean, it's got to have at least a couple laughs in it, right? Right?

Err... I grinned here and there, but, well, maybe it's just the dude in me, I'm not sure, because I really like the romantic comedy genre, but this film seemed to fall a little flat. The direction was okay. It could have been better, but it is what it is. The acting for the genre is actually fine. But the story premise wasn't played out to its fullest.

I mean, this had the potential to be a really hilarious film, but the gags and story just seemed to plod along from one superficial "chicks fighting over dude" joke to the next.

I don't know. Maybe I'm being too unfair to the film. I'm not sure I could've done a better job with the script at hand. Then again, I probably wouldn't do any worse.

At least I only paid a few bucks for a copy. If you must watch it, borrow it from a friend, or check out the libraries copy.

I wouldn't say this movie changed my life or anything, but it was very cute and romantic. I also enjoyed seeing "Carlton" from the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. I think that this is the first time I've seen him in something other than that show. Amanda Bynes is absolutely adorable in this film. She is slowly becoming one of my favorite young actresses. Jamie-Lynn Sigler is great as well. This movie had a "Disney Channel" feel to it. I thought it was like something that you would see that would have the tag "Disney Channel Original movie." However, the movie was entertaining and I really did enjoy it. I would recommend it to anyone who was in the market for a sweet lighthearted film.

This movie was shallow and very, very predictable. Even if it's been a very long time since I watched this movie, I'd forgotten most of the scenes, but I could already predict what the ending would be during the first 2 minutes of the movie! It was just so obvious. Watch the first two minutes, I dare you, and you'll know who Jenny's going to be ending up with.

Love Wrecked revolves around Jenny (Amanda Bynes) who is utterly in love with rockstar, Jason Masters. Her dreams are made when her idol checks in the resort that she works in. Thanks to some situations, she manages to get the both of them alone together, stranded in an island. The thing is, they're not really alone. Jenny found out that the "marooned island" that they're on, is actually connected to the resort! And mayhem occurs.

Seeing Amanda Bynes in this movie, reminded me of her in "She's the Man", "The Amanda Show" and "What a Girl wants". If you think about it, her character is all the same. A goofy teenager who does weird faces. Sort of like Jim Carrey, only younger and not as good. I'm just saying here. I don't know if that means she's a good actress or if she's just good in acting like a "goofy teenager".

I did have a few laughs. I liked the competition that Jenny and Alexis had. Aaand, that's about it. Maybe my rating was too harsh, but that's the truth. Not the best film out there. Very predictable. There's not much of a storyline here. But hey, if you just want to have a quick fun flick, this movie could be it.
