Another day and another mediocre Reel One Entertainment TV movie, and this time it's kind of expected because production company is The Asylum. When I read page description I couldn't believe that The Asylum and Emerald City Entertainment produced it. No way, but when movie started...
Technically, my only issue was stupid background music. No, it wasn't loud like in so many other ROE TV movies, but it was mostly sameish and constant like some 80s synth pop which is obviously out of place because it is a movie about wedding. I mean it wasn't "Blade Runner" but maybe somebody at The Asylum confused this with some of their parody movies. It killed immersion in the most of scenes. It wasn't filmed in Hampton, it was shot in California so they overused stock footage which is always bad but was unnecessary as shoting location easily passed as the real one.
I don't know why, but Maddison Bullock sounded like a child in the most of the movie and it was distracting.
But what really killed this movie for me is atrocious writing. The whole movie revolves around mistaken for special guest trope. I'm always going to say it's hard to properly execute it, and this movie failed like many others. If you want to enjoy this movie you really have to shut down your brain fast because how is possible that the famous internet influencer and celebrity (Lindsey) whose father is the owner of the Fortune 500 company was mistaken for nobody (Jenna) in the age of smartphones and internet? How Jenna could be easily passed for Lindsey at security gate at rich white family gated community? How is even possible that nobody, literally nobody at estate, and there were so many guests didn't know who Lindsey is or at least check on internet? And this is just in the first 10 min of movie.
Even if you completely ignore so many absurd things, there is another elephant in the room, and this is the first time in any ROE TV movie - Jenny was Mary Sue. There is a famous song from 80s in my country which can be translated in English as "You are a perfection without flaw". Sure, she struggled about faking, but outside of her moral dilemma (at least this part was properly written), she was always perfect, and when somebody is written perfectly you simply don't care about her. I could write on and on, but it would spoil movie.
And then, in the end, there is a diversity issue. ROE TV movies mostly target urban progressive/liberal population, and there is nothing wrong with it. What is wrong is that this is another their movie where we have black/white couple or soon to be married, and yet, in the end when there is finally wedding ceremony and party, there wasn't a single black extra, it was full of whites. Daisy, a bride, is a black. How is that even possible?
Just watch 2:11 min long trailer and spend your time on watching something better.
