The Veil movies are very good, mainly due to the 3 leads. But I fail to see the "10" ratings given here. It's good but not wonderful. Some great moments - I love Lacey Chabert and she was stellar in this one. Her joy over the pregnancy was lovely. But overall the movie was okay/good, not excellent. Kevin Mc's accent should just be put to rest. He's very engaging and just doesn't need that bit of "authenticity" to carry his role - we'd never miss it. Many New Englanders don't have one.

He could also use a good shampoo- sorry, I know that's petty, but it was so distracting. Stylist issues?

The plot itself was a little scattered. Loved the main story of the pregnancy, etc and the Mom and her romance, but the new boss at the Gallery (and his issues) was more of a distraction than anything else. Nice scenery and beautiful mansion. Fun to see Autumn Reeser and Allison Sweeney again.

6.7 stars.

From a glass half full perspective (quoted in this film actually), "The Wedding Veil Expectations" is a moderately below average Hallmark film. We are back to Chabert as the female lead. It's not as good as the first three, particularly the second one was my favorite. Reeser makes a movie special more so than most lead females of the Hallmark genre (I think Hallmark is its own genre). The reasons that I enjoyed the first two films, the first being a 7.5, was the mystery behind the veil, and it was the genesis of an odyssey of sorts. It was the first of its kind, pulling us into an adventure of the veil shrouded in antiquity (modern antiquity so to speak).

The second one which I rated at 7.8, featuring Reeser was abundant with wonder and mystery as she was trekking through Italy meeting the originators of the veil itself. Her journey and discovery of the provenance of the veil and the Italian family that created it, were intriguing and enjoyable.

The third installment, starring Sweeney, was a 7.2 star disappointment and was lesser than the first ones. Although it contained much of the same, it didn't fit the mold in several key aspects. Much of the mystery and discovery was absent.

This one, the fourth of the veil series, was more like the third except slower, lacking adventure, just very limited to a woman (Chabert) and her feelings about this and that. Basically, this is a film about her discovering she is pregnant. The rest of the film is about her determining how to break the news to her various family and friends; so you can see the letdown. It's not veil oriented at all. Then we are suddenly transported into a very strange and anti-climactic conclusion.

I am not eagerly anticipating the next installment in the series, in fact I was just about ready to call it quits on these films. Of course any Hallmark aficionado can attest that we cannot just watch 4 of the 6 wedding veil movies and leave it at that. I have Reeser to look forward to next, so if it fails to entertain, I'll be doubly disappointed. Ultimately, I have high hopes that the 5th installment will resurrect this down sloping trend of the third and fourth veil films.

We return to the Italian wedding veil saga. Our three college friends and art aficionados have now all married wonderful men wearing the beautiful Italian veil. (I loved how each had their own personal style and wore the veil in a slightly different way.) We head back to Boston to catch up with Avery and Peter. These two are still madly in love with Peter waking up his romantic wife (the most romantic of the three friends) with a rose each morning. They have purchased this wonderful old home that should be on a historic registry...but in the process of doing some remodeling and updating, discover leaks, cracks in the foundation, etc. To top it off Avery is putting together a new lace exhibit at the museum and has a new boss who she doesn't see eye to eye with. Can she find the perfect unforgettable moment to tell Peter they are expecting and is veil working it's magic on someone else?

I love, love, love this series. It helps that they have wonderful actors anchoring the cast, but I was happy to see the return of so many of the supporting cast. The overall story has been wonderfully done and what I truly appreciate is at its heart is this great supportive friendship between three college friends.

I can't wait to see the next two films...and I hope this is just the beginning of a long and storied Wedding Veil franchise! I highly recommend this to all fellow romantics out there.
