Brennan Camacho Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.
Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
N L Some attention to detail would have paid off. Infusing a cloudy solution into patients blood would have caused an immense amount of pain because there is way too much in there and contents aren't properly dissolved. I didn't see a single patient stir from the pain. I can assure you one of those patients would have woken up in pain because they couldn't all be equally ill. They probably should have checked with an educated doctor or scientist before they made up those "solutions."Dramatically, the characters also didn't sell. Unfounded frustration and angry outbursts don't make for good viewing.
Esraa yuseff it's actually that kind of movies you watch without being engaged in, the could be a negative point, but I see it a positive one for someone who want to watch simple light movie with good story and characters. Kevin Richardson plays the rule of some jerk here, and He did really well, and the story is about Dr. Blinda who goes to a city needing a doctor to treat a spreading flue that turns out to be Cholera. she was nice sweet looking but short tempered person who tend to judge everyone. her friend Anne is a rich girl, understanding and kept her inline in terms of dealing with the citizens and helps her through out the process. Mr. Owen, a very gentle lovely person supporting them as well and showing a strong yet loving personality. the movie talks about fate, believe, god and his reasons, telling the story of someone who lost his faith when he was surrounded by sorrow and hardships.
thestormchaser319 Before I begin, I'll say that I have always been a fan of Jeanette Oak and her work. I am not however, a fan of Hallmark channel movies.(I've always thought them to be too predictable and repetitive)The Love comes Softly series is no different, except for the fact that it is set in the 1800's. The constant playing of dramatic music is irritating and the acting is far too modern for a western movie.And to be honest, it doesn't stray far from the other Love Comes Softly movies. Girl meets boy, they fall in love and get married, then have a child who repeats the same thing in the next movie. I'll admit that the plot is intriguing enough to keep you watching,and if your looking for a good family film, then this is for you.All in all this movie is your typical, feel good, western-love story.If thats your cup of tea then you will enjoy this, otherwise don't watch it.
Jay Harris Love Takes Wing is one of a series 'Love Is......' made for the Hallmark Television Channel.Now most of us know that Hallmark makes films for the entire family, similar to films from years back.The executive producer is Micheal Landon Jr.; this is the type film his late father would have made.It was written by Rachel Stuhler & adapted from the novel by Janette Oke,Lou Diamond Phillips directed capably & portrays a villainous character.Even though the setting is a small town in Missouri in the 1880's or '90's,it is not the usual type western that we know so well.The acting is very good,The following have major roles Sarah Jones, Hayley Duff, as 2 very young Doctors. Patrick Duffy as very political small town mayor. Cloris Leachman (she may be in her'80's) is excellent as the orphanage caretaker. Jordan Bridges (Grandson of Lloyd) as the blacksmith hero. I do not know the name of he actress who has the main juvenile role, She is adorable.Love Takes Wing is the sort of film that used to be on the lower half of a double bill.Nothing great just pleasant hokey entertainment.Ratings: *** (out of 4) 81 points (out of 100) IMDb 7 (out of 10)
