Prescription for Love

Pleasant to watch, but the storyline took an unpleasant turn with Luke's unfair treatment of our heroine, purely on the word of the evil stepmother boss. Had I been Clare (and I'm sure in real life) the doctor would be told to take a hike for being so shallow.

I really enjoyed this movie - it's a modern take on Cinderella set in a hospital where the Cinderella character is a nurse, the Evil Stepmother is her boss. and the Prince is the new Doctor. Although Cinderella has been done hundreds of times before, this version worked and was fun to watch, with some cool twists with the various characters and patients at the hospital.

This is a very predictable storyline. No surprises except for how watchable Jillian Murray is. Usually a movie like this, I would have stopped watching after 5 minutes. But I couldn't take my eyes off of her the whole way. She made me cheer for a character with absolutely no depth! Even though I knew exactly what would happen, I wanted to keep watching because of her. The movie itself deserves a rating of 2 out of 10 - I've given it a 5 because of her. If that sounds like not much praise, I disagree - this could have the greatest actors or all time playing these roles and it would still be a terrible and predictable movie. I hope Jillian Murray will get a chance to play a really excellent character soon so that we can see how she does when she actually has some material to work with!

Or don't bother watching this at all. Are men shallow? Even the good ones? Maybe that is what you think and maybe the Cinderella aspect of this story is more important to you than any cliche or the very .. how do I put it nicely? Well the fact our main male protagonist seems to be unable to recognize the very woman he supposedly fell head over heels over ... And she wasn't even wearing a mask or anything.

Now that is quite the big point that almost breaks the movie ... actually maybe it does. Maybe you don't care that after that fact it is quite nicely and romantic and speaks to the heart of those who are in movies like this one. If that is the case, you normally shouldn't care either that we get a fairy tale depiction of nurses, doctors, patients and janitors (or is room cleaning person? I actually forgot the job description of one of the characters) ... the main thing to remember: Fairy tale ... are you up for that, with all its flaws or not?

It's a basic hallmark/lifetime type very predictable Romantic movie. A modern day Cinderella type story - My main gripe is that the background music plays almost constantly throughout the entire movie lol. It's quite annoying. The acting is sub par, Trevor Donovan is the only one who is actually a decent actor. Is not the worst I've seen but nowhere near the best. Worth a free watch if you are bored.
