anaporrascarpio - 10 November 2023 Corazones malheridos "Corazones malheridos" is a romantic and dramatic film wich was directed by Elizabeth Allen Rosenbaun. This film is set in California and it was released on 29th July 2022. It tells the story of Cassie and Luke, who had married for conveniense and the only one who knows it was Frankie, a friend of both.
Cassie, who is a waiter that in her free time works a singer, met Luke , who is a marine that is about to go to Iraq. At the beginning of the story, Cassie needed money to pay her medicins to control her diabetes,She discovered that if she gets married to a marine , she won't have to pay for her medecines .At first, she told that to her Frankie but he said no because he had a girlfiend.
After that she asks for it to Luke and although he rejected her, later he accepted it because he needed money too. They ended up getting married . Will they end up falling in love , or it will continue being a lie?
The plot of this film is so exciting and interesting, everyone should watch it. The story has a great narrative pace and the central characters are smart and brave.
One criticim of this film is that it can be and is actually a little predictable. All in all, I recomend it for everyone.
sezahp - 12 August 2023 Why are so many people rating this badly? It might be because I'm young and I like myself some romance movies, realistic or not, but I actually quite enjoyed this movie.
I just watched it for the second time and I must say that my opinions didn't change a lot - although I find it a little slow paced at times and the drama comes very abruptly, I really like the way the main characters care for each other. Especially the bathroom scene and the glucose attack scene are beautiful, in my opinion.
This movie just shows the slow falling in love in a realistic way, as I see it. I feel like you don't immediately love someone, but once you care for someone on a serious level (eg. Health wise), your relationship changes. And the main couple does have this change and I like it.
Yes, the plot is pretty predictable, but sometimes I feel like that's all you need from a movie - knowing it will have a happy end, just sit back and take a two-hour break from everyday life.
I also really like Sofia Carson and Nicholas Galitzine, so I enjoyed this watch. I guess this could be recommended to people who like romance movies, music, and a happy end!
barndust - 25 November 2022 Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda - Might have saved this movie The plot had potential for a cheesy but charming romance but the writers failed miserably. The girl (I just watched the movie a few days ago and it's so forgettable I can't remember the main characters' names) is nothing short of a b---h. She's stuck on herself, dreams of being a famous singer (but she can't sing worth a flip) while she waits tables with a resentful attitude. She particularly dislikes the military. She's a feminist with BLM and pride flags draped on her apt. Balcony and at one point when she drapes a military flag (to reinforce the idea that she married her soldier for love?) you can tell she all but grinds her teeth. There is nothing nice or redeemable about her. She's a diabetic, no insurance, no money, so ends up in a marriage of convenience with the soldier who also needs the extra income to pay off his debt to a former drug dealer. So yeah, I can see how those needs might be the basis for an interesting story.
Then he deploys, they keep up the pretense. I'm not gonna lie, at the halfway point in the movie I began jumping forward in big gaps to see how it ended. Seems like they got found out after he's injured and sent home to recover; he got in trouble with the military, is getting DIShonorably discharged. She on the other hand is reveling in her glorious new singing career! Somehow at the end of the show after all their nasty backbiting (and sleeping together on a faux wedding night that gave the feel of a cheap one night stand) he's dishonorably discharged and Happy about it? The woman who wrote this script obviously despised the military, had little or no respect for the sacrifices a soldier makes. She write his character as someone with no notable patriotism, that he was only in the military for the money, and developed no patriotism in his short deployment. But it's ok to glam up her career. Nothing about this movie worked for me. It's irresponsible characterization, the fluff of a teenage girls fantasy. How anyone could like this is beyond comprehension.
thikhanhlinhtran - 9 October 2022 I don't even know why people said this is the bad movie I watched this movie as a girl who just got out of the relationship, as the person who used to live in the states, and as the person who actually wanna take a risk just to get my green card and failed, this movie actually really relatable for me. I love how the scene in this movie took. It's very dreamy and nostalgic. The music is very very good too. I love all the songs in this movie. I don't know why people said this is bad. Sadly tho.
This actually really good for someone who just got out of relationship, or if you just want to watch a film in a rain night at home. You will cry, trust me. Love.
iamjamalwhite - 13 September 2022 She was a hot mess But it got better. As a third generation career military man, they got the military stuff right. She starts as an ultra liberal California girl whose mess of a life is the government and everyone else's fault. Illegals are entitled to citizen rights. Guns are bad. Military's mission is wrong. Medical care is a right. Hating the people trying to kill you is weak. THEN she starts to see life through his eyes. Real life. They marry so her diabetic health care is covered and he can pay an old debt. Don't watch the commercial because all that is in it! We liked it. It was predictable and Hallmark with a twist but it was true to life. The military stuff was well-done. One of the better things on this channel this year. Getting crazy good reviews.
