Marrying Mr. Darcy

Elizabeth came off as spoilt and silly in this sequel, constantly pouting and nitpicking. Imagine having a hissy fit because your fiance didn't disclose that he was working overtime so he could take a month off to take you on a round the world honeymoon! And fussing even more because you were afraid to stand up for yourself and get the wedding that you always dreamed about. I just wished the writers would have done better with her storyline. Poor Donovan had the patience of Job in this one!

When I saw the first film I thought it was decent and good, but after watching the sequel I can honestly say I much prefer this film compared to the first film. Elizabeth and Donovan have a much better relationship and although there were still a few bumps, their love and relationship grew more stronger because of it. Aunt Violet is back and it was so annoying and wrong of her to take complete control over the wedding. In the end though, Elizabeth and Donovan got married in exactly the kind of wedding Elizabeth first imagined and in the end they finally get their long awaited happily ever after.

Ryan Paevey is, maybe, one of the good motives to see this film. And his aunt. But, for many reasons, it seems not exactly enough. Maybe, being myself bachelor or seeing too many weddings preparation films ,I am not exactly entusiastic about it. But it has a poor story the expected chemistry is missing, the busy Darcy is forced and the stubborn bride is terrible. The dog and mister Paevey , for their presence are reasonable solutions for a story to superficial . So, the expected Hallmark. With the old solutions , nice dogs and some presumed twists.

Is it nice ? Maybe. It can be definesc as reasonable. And that is all.

Nice sequel to Unleashing Mr. Darcy. When the movie first started, I wondered where the dramatic tension would come from but, as the train pulled out of the station, it was a good ride. Everyone (dogs included) does a good job driving the story. One small quibble is that the locations are obviously in B.C. not NYC. But that's not surprising for Hallmark nor really a complaint.

I didn't care much for Unleashing. So I wonder why we need a sequel. Actually I thought this movie was slightly better because the acting wasn't quite so bad. But unfortunately the story line was a bit to simple. Since it was mostly about the stresses of wedding planning, it was not my cup of tea.

As I said, the acting was decent and I particularly liked the final tete a tete.
