A Royal in Paradise (2023 TV Movie)
6/10
Formulaic at best
2 May 2024
Well I don't mind a well done formulaic Hallmark style movie, this unfortunately did not meet the minimum standards. The acting was at best adequate. The set designs were a bit shoddy in parts. The scenery was gorgeous however. The plot was very predictable but also underwhelming..a mixture of about four different Royal movies. What annoyed me the most however was how the directors seemed to overlook the actors appearances. The Queen's hairstyle was shockingly unkempt. The Prince looked a bit smarmy. The the author would have known better than to wear a ballgown that showed half of her drooping bosom.

The More Love Grows (2023 TV Movie)
4/10
Yawn..fastest healing after divorce ever.
20 August 2023
I wanted to like this movie because the dog is so cute. Unfortunately the main character Helen is so annoying that I wanted something really bad to happen so she would stop being so bloody perky and show some authentic emotions. She giggles in almost every scene! Even after hearing that the dog's owner had been found. She doesn't seem to have any emotional intelligence..she is surprised by her husband leaving, that the new boyfriend had 'feelings' for her, that her daughter might have been over mothered!

The characters also seem to be thrown in and stereotypical rather than developed. The mother is intrusive , the new friend a bit 'out there', and the new boyfriend terribly supportive.

And speaking of dogs, they are not 'pack' animals...the training advice was so 1990s. They really could have used the opportunity to promote force free training techniques and best practices like microchipping.
