Movie Reviews of The Matchmaker
Movie Review: Not Very Deep
Summary: 2 Stars
I thought the plot was a little shallow. And there was a little too much profanity for me -- wasn't really necessary for this particular film in my opinion. That being said, the scenery was beautiful. We'll probably watch it in the future for the scenery, but not necessarily for the plot.Movie Review: Great movie, bad DVD
Summary: 2 Stars
I like this movie, call me sappy if you will, but the DVD is not worth it, the quality is as bad if not worse than my old VHS tape. The image is grainy and colors are distorted and there are no special features worth having.Movie Review: bad language
Summary: 2 Stars
A friend lent this movie to me & I am glad that I had not bought it. I couldn't get past the bad language to see if it was any good. Couldn't they have told this story without ever other word a curse word.Movie Review: Matchmaker: All that's missing are the Lucky Charms!
Summary: 1 Stars
I so looked forward to seeing this movie: Janeane Garofalo is one of my favorite actresses/comediennes in a romantic comedy set in Ireland. I wound up sitting uncomfortably through the entire movie. From a distance...Ireland seems beautiful (I have never been there). However, up close, the people were endowed with mean-spirited caricatures, with every negative Irish stereotype gathered in one village. Two adult(?) brothers constantly physically fighting with each other, too much drinking, bad driving, or just plain loud and silly -no one that I would care to know. It took all the romance out of romantic and funny out of comedy.
I'm thinking of a much better movie set in Ireland (sorry, can't think of the name) about a girl who gets pregnant by her father's friend. While the film was funny, it had a real sense of the people, the attitudes, and the community. Again, I'm sorry I can't remember the name of this movie, which I would recommend. I saw it on television.
As for Matchmaker? Thumbs down.
Movie Review: a movie that should not have been made
Summary: 1 Stars
I can't begin to imagine that people would think this movie was charming and funny. The language was offensive; the acting in most cases was poor; we won't even comment on the writer's lack of talent. The only thing good about it was the Irish scenery, but sadly that was not enough to bring this movie up from the depths of bad taste. "Turkey" is too good a name for it.
