Moriah's Lighthouse

watch later

I'm ok with the actresses French accent, which worked ok for me. The actress, R. L., is at least from the Quebec, Canada, so maybe she has some French Canadian accent exposure.

This movie did not follow the customary hallmark romcom, thankfully. Beautiful scenery, wonderful leads and supporting actors, lots of French (though tiny translations), a surprise subplot, with a possibility for a sequel: this is a town that would be very involved in the couple's wedding, should they decide. ("They" could be the town!)

Cannot get through the movie because of her ridiculous french accent! Hallmark please, edit your actors and your movies better. I am so disappointed. Beautiful scenery. I was so excited to see this one.

Non, non, non....this is one to skip!!! I just could not handle that fake accent and such an implausible story line. The other reviews go more into detail. Beautiful scenery, and with some tweaks it could have been a sweet story.

The scenery was incredible. I had to check that indeed it was filmed in France, and not somewhere in Canada. I was relieved it was. I like these two, two of my favorites but they didn't sell this very well. It seemed forced. Her French accent was horrible. At one time she was painting furniture with a brush and I was thinking that should be stained, with a rag. And then in another scene, she WAS staining it with a rag. The production wasn't the best. But, I enjoyed it, wish I could have rewarded it with higher rating.

This one misses the mark on almost every occasion. The actors' didn't maintain their French accents consistently. The attempts at comedy fell flat. The main conflict (Moriah getting upset that a house she doesn't own is being renovated) is lame. The French Resistance storyline shoehorned in made no sense. I sensed zero chemistry between Luke and Rachel. Just a mess of a movie, unfortunately.

The fact that when the lead lady is screaming and crying her "French English" accent literally doesn't exist is hilarious. The chemistry isn't believable. If the location is France, why is everyone speaking English with the French accent? I know they are doing it just for the movie, and it's only Hallmark, but it's still frustrating.

Loved this little Hallmark Movie. It's fun when they are different and this was, especially featuring the gorgeous scenery from the Brittany France area where it was filmed. Peope are questioning Rachelle Lefevre's accent. She may not be from France, but she was born and raised in Montreal Quebec, so is very french, albeit Canadian French. Gorgeous lady. Luke MacFarlane is one of the most handsome leading men Hallmark has.
