angie_4-2 I saw this quite by chance last week - June 2008 on TV and taped some of it. I thought it was fabulous. I just loved it from start to finish so much so that I have now bought both the DVD and VHS from Amazon. I just wanted to time travel back and be right there with them. A wonderful story from start to finish especially since the 1700's has always been a favourite time - my first stop if I had a time machine. I doubt if I would come back to the (21st century) again. The story was charming and the chemistry between them all was magical. Such charming gentlemen and who would not wish to be in their company. Magic! I cannot wait to receive the DVD and VHS tape.

naeemaisa If you love period films, especially romances, then you'll love this. The scenery is beautiful, the romance fraught with difficulties and dangers, and yet extremely sweet. It is amusing, and yet informative, being as how it's based on true events in Ireland. There is also a nice bit of swash and buckle going on, always a great addition to films of this type. The film has a great storyline, and has been well put together. I can't think of a single negative thing to say about it. All of the actors play their part well, and are well suited to their roles, right down to the bad guy we love to hate. This film is definitely numbered among my favourites.

A Laws The 'Abduction Club', you soon realize, is a group of young men who abduct the woman they wish to marry in order to charm them & propose.This unique storyline provides a captivating follow-up of events. And in a turn of fortune, leads you away from the predictable.It's a lot lighter than your average period drama, & quick moving, with a twist. The two main characters compliment each others roles to provide a comical duo, & keep you entertained until the end.I didn't know what to expect when i began watching, but was in for a pleasant surprise. Although parts were foreseeable, it was still an enjoyable film.

mrdudekinns the idea behind the film is a good one at that, but the film isnt. an interesting premise is predictably translated with not even any enjoyable young cast unable to sell it. the film is below average which if trying something new would gain respect for being daring , but it was unorignal, never breathing life into an old tale. i would at least like to someone try something new even if they fail it would make a change!4
