Paging Mr. Darcy (2024 TV Movie)
3/10
Yet another terrible result of when Hallmark tries Jane Austen
6 February 2024
Warning: Spoilers
The best part about this movie is Will Kemp acting as a Mr Darcy for a Jane Austen convention. That is really charming and he pulls off the aloofness, the outfit, and is so believable as a guy playing Mr Darcy.

The rest is cringe. Mallory's character is so unlikable and rude, to the point where you don't care about her. The sister side plot: super annoying. The actress playing the sister, she played her so over the top, and irritating!!

While Mallory and Will COULD have been a great screen couple, the writing is unfortunately terrible. Plus, she's just so nasty to him. When they kiss at the end, you don't even believe it, nor are you wanting for it to happen.

I hate it when Hallmark tries to re-do something classic, or put their own spin on something that's already perfect. This is another example of that. Just don't waste your time.
