Re: the wedding vow rehearsal, I don't know what they do in Ireland, but in the US it's typical to have a wedding rehearsal 1-2 days before the wedding. But we generally don't rehearse the vows. The rehearsal is more about getting the processional and recessional right -- who goes first, who sits/stands where, etc. Essentially it's scene blocking. The wedding party and parents usually go out to dinner afterwards, and the groom's family picks up the tab for the dinner.

@@jswa1225 How terrifying! Hopefully you figured it out as you went along. I was first down the aisle at my sister's wedding. I remember when the organist started playing the processional, EVERYBODY in the church turned around and was looking at me. For a super introvert like me, it was a nightmare come true! I wound up not getting married myself, but that experience made me swear that no way would I have a church ceremony -- it'd be courthouse all the way!

Talk about stretching things out. We’d never really do the dinner the night before, drink would be taken, it would get late and no one would turn up the next morning. Bridal party needs to be chilling at home in their PJs.

HOLLYWOOD: We're gonna make a movie about the Irish! IRISH PEOPLE: 🤦 IRISH FILMMAKERS: No, WE'RE going to make a movie about the Irish. EVERYBODY: 👏👏👏👏

This movie idea of Irish is soooooo bad. The Irish dancing in the pub with the fiddle and the plaid shirts and the berets. Come on!!!

You should definitely do more reviews 😂😂 I am totes here for it!

I think Saint Brigid is this movie's version of the Hallmark Christmas Movie Santa Clause character

When my husband suggested we watch it, I said, "Sure. It'll be awful, but we like Lindsay Lohan." I stand by that. (Honestly, the bit that pissed me off the most was the representation of Brigid. Making a firey goddess into a goofy pixie had me chipping my teeth.)

This review is hysterical. I haven't watched this movie and have no intention to but I did watch the trailer and was just glad they didn't have Lindsay put on a bad Irish accent. That doesn't seem to be the case with the other actors 😆The part with Brigid looks like an abomination 🤣

I love your critique of the film....and i also love the way you say film! All the best Claire!

It looks like a car crash, but I'm happy for Lohan's return and that's why I watched her Xmas movie and will probably give this one a go too. I mean, it can't be worse than Wild Mountain Thyme (Dornan and Blunt) - I didn't even make it through the first 20 minutes of that. I think Irish Wish is one of those tongue in cheek romance films that knows its hammy. If nothing else, I'll just enjoy the backdrop of Ireland and how walkable the counties are 😆

The St. Brigid fairy is wearing Pakistani/Indian salwar kameez, so that just makes it sooooo much better.

Great review Clare! As a Southerner, I totally get the accent gripe. Just as I get the scenes that aren't possible in real life. I'm originally from Washington, DC, and it always makes me crazy to see the limo (it's always a limo) in one scene crossing Memorial Bridge, and in the very next scene it's passing in front of the Capitol building from the WRONG DIRECTION TO HAVE COME FROM MEMORIAL BRIDGE. OH, and they're always heading for someplace on Capitol Hill, despite having just past the Capitol, which is ON Capitol Hill. I mean....seriously. Can the filmmakers really not do 5 lousy minutes of research to get things right? Anyway. Rant off, and good blessings to you, Alex, Millie and the baby to be.

They're shaky on the geography of the island next door too sometimes. Kevin Costner, as Robin of Lockesley, makes landfall at the white cliffs of Dover, and tells Morgan Freeman they'll be at his father's house by nightfall. In Nottingham. On foot. I mean it's nearly four hours *by car*.

I've watched this review at least 10 times now. Brilliant roasting. I could go for more movie reviews like this, especially which Irish films you actually like.

I haven't seen it but I'm not surprised. 😂 I am happy Lindsay seems to be doing better on a personal level though. The industry must live in some sort of alternate universe. They don't even portray our own country, people and life accurately. I have no high expectations when it comes to foreign people and places. I'm just shocked they included Brigid (even if it was inaccurate) instead of their typical leprechaun dressed all in green. They're really branching out. 😂

They do the same with us Scots too 😂 And anything with Lyndsay Lohan in it is bound to be shit! 😂

I was blissfully unaware of this 'movie', and see I wasn't missing out on anything lol. Cheesy weak sauce with that formulaic hallmark style, and what's with the silly Irish stereotypes? I'm American, so wouldn't notice, but I'm glad you pointed out they just got up and walked to county Clare😂

Loved this!

My favorite film shot in Ireland is War of the Buttons.

I'm never watching another film...until you review it. 🤗

You should've had MC do a cameo to set the record straight on what the festival in Laois is called. I've learned that if an Irish woman says to you, "I just want to talk", you should run, run away as fast as you can!

@@lostcarpark I never found it silly but it did seem a bit odd because my mother was the only person I knew who pronounced it that way.

100% agree with all your comments, I just wish I had seen this before I got talked into watching it on March 16th :(

Ha! I watched it on St Patrick's Day as I was sick and couldn't go dance with my friends. Needed a little bit of a home fix. Yes, it was BAD, right up there with Halle Berry's Catwoman, but honestly what did we expect? I just love the scenery. Same reason I watched PS I Love You when it came out. Brigid definitely needs a new stylist!

Loved your review, Clare! It is unfortunate that she didn't catch a Lilac bus from the Knock airport. They missed a chance to do Maeve Binchy proud. Big miss IMHO in a film about writers. 😂😂😂

I just WISH you had made this BEFORE my wife wanted me to watch this with her… although I took a great nap during that time.

Well, at least no-one burst into a spontaneous version of 'How are Things in Glocca Morra?'

That's for watching it for us. At least there is nice views of the country side in it from what I see here.

You got it right, Clisare! This is a Hallmark movie made for Americans and (any remaining) Lindsay Lohan fans. The only reason for the mother to be in the film is so they could hire Jane Seymour, who has been crazy popular in the states forever, and shoot all her scenes in half a day. Note she's apparently always at her desk or just a head on FaceTime. I'm sure she was well paid for her cameo appearance. Seymour's name does lend credibility to a Hallmark, er, Netflix movie. Sorry you had to endure the bad accent parade, Claire. The producers obviously didn't think Americans can tell the difference between an Irish, English or Welsh accent. That's why they produce junk like Irish Wish.

A lot of people think that people from New Orleans have a deep, southern accent, but we don't. The make-up of that port city gives it a dialect that sounds more like Brooklyn-ese. I was in a play where I was an Irish cop. I played him with a heavy brogue, and then I realized he was born in America and likely wouldn't have a brogue. I kept it anyway. It was funnier. 😉

There are alot of good Irish movies and documentaries on Prime.

I'm Irish and had zero intention of watching this Yank flavoured Paddywhackery! Wait, a big green 60's bus with lovely green seats ... now I'm kinda getting into it ... I tried watching the sponsors ad but I lost interest very quickly and made a cuppa coffee instead ... I've met Saint Bridget so many times when I'm out on rural walks, I usually greet her with "Alright there Bridie, what's the story? Out pickin' mushrooms as usual ye fookin' animal?" ... Mayo looks a lot like Enniskerry, County Wicklow (because it is, I think all towns in "Irish" movies are Enniskerry to be honest) ...

"Wildlife photographer" 1. Not with that camera. 2. How is a sheep shearing event wildlife? Also, where were they flying to Knock from? Lourdes? Great review. Glad I don't have to watch the film.

"I just want to talk" she says as she breaks out a cricket bat. "Just a casual chat" (starts practice swinging). "I just have a few questions" (swings at a nearby American tourist's kneecaps).
