My Best Friend's Bouquet was boring from the beginning to the end. We made it all the way through though, The cast was boring, and unless the interaction and chemistry were written to be the way they ALL portrayed it, and I mean all, there was no chemistry. We didn't recognize any of the characters and the one character who had a little pizazz wasn't the lead character. I have a difficult time reviewing poor films and giving the appropriate rating, that being said I easily could have given a lower rating. The story line was OK, but the way it was written just didn't come out believable and enjoyable. I'm not trashing this movie, just found it boring and uninspiring.

I truly enjoyed this movie. Even though you could pretty much tell how it was going to end, it was the story lines leading up to it.

I really liked this movie. The story kept my interest. I didn't once get bored. The characters were fun.

This was a bright spot in increasingly dull Hallmark offerings. This was mostly due to the lead actress, Chaley Rose. She was very cute and a good actress with a good delivery. I also liked the three friends and particularly the story of the one with the managing mother-in-law who wanted the fancy wedding. I'm glad that the Hallmark movies are getting more diverse, but this was a diversity explosion. It went a little overboard and wasn't realistic.

The story was OK but the female lead was so subdued, she came off as over medicated, no energy or emotion. The issue was highlighted by the good job the rest of the cast did. Prepare to be lulled

Josie is charming and annoying at the same time as a hopeless romantic. I think Chaley Rose was a great choice for her. There were a couple times I thought that if they used the line about "The bouquet knows" one more time I would scream. They did and I didn't. I loved Josie when she epitomized what's good about being an optimistic romantic. Obviously, part of the plot was that she sometimes went overboard. But even so, I think she makes an implicit case that more of us should appreciate a little more romance in the world. The lore of the bouquet gives a slightly different take to what comes down to a few of the well used plot devices like the best friends who don't realize they are really in love, or one of the leads has a job offer far away. Athena's mother-in-law (to be) is a nice variation on the controlling m-i-l . Usually this stereotype starts out overbearing and blindly self-centered but suddenly changes to sweet and loving. In this case we can see almost from the beginning that she isn't exactly sure of herself either, but she's trying. Note to Directors - Please make phone text messages large enough for people of all ages to be able to read. In this movie, they were almost large enough, but the worst problem was coming out of the last commercial, the G rating symbol covered a large part of a key text.

I was pleasantly surprised. Jaime Callica was outstanding. A real natural. His charm came through the screen. I've seen him in other Hallmark movies. He should definitely get some leading roles. He would be awesome!!
