It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

This is another one of these movies where the leading male has no backbone. Is this what the media industry sees leading males as such "MUSH"? Is this what the Western male has become in the eyes of the entertainment industry? Are there no real men left in the writers, producers and directors in the world of movies? Or at least some real men that can influence their perception.I am not talking about men who beat their wives into submission. I mean, men with passion, feelings of other attributes that women can appreciate. Take this jerk of a husband. If his wife went out and slept with his uncle and the rest of the men in the nearby village? I wouldn't blame her. The only thing I would frown upon her is, why did she ever marry the fool?his guy has no clue on how to satisfy a woman. Can you blame his first wife for telling him to go screw his uncle? As for the second wife, well she was more forgiving but he didn't deserve her either. Another waste of time movie. Even my wife said she would have left me if I acted this way.

Predictable, but extremely humorous. There was absolutely fine chemistry existing between Roma Downey and Tim Matheson here.Putting the soon to be divorced couple in a Robinson Crusoe like atmosphere really hit the top. Perhaps, we see the realization that a couple needs quiet time together in order to work things out.Otherwise, the scenes dealing with the vacation, arranged by the family who don't know about their separation, are quite humorous.The film also invariably proves that love conquers all.The magistrate was great. Apparently, he saw that the 20 year married couple had potential and he worked feverishly for a reconciliation.A light, heart-warming film. It shows a couple that lost touch with each other due to their immersion in work. This time out film really works.

SECOND HONEYMOON (2001) (TV) is extremely similar to BORROWED HEARTS (1997) (TV). Both have Roma Downey as the leading lady. Both have a mysterious Mexican man (Antonio in SECOND, Javier Del Campo in BORROWED), who is much more than he seems, playing the busy matchmaker. Both try to tell a heartwarming light comic/romantic "mature boy gets mature girl" tale.There are some differences. BORROWED HEARTS takes place in the cold north during winter/Christmas. SECOND HONEYMOON takes place in the warm tropics affording some eye candy scenes with a daytime bikini beach dance teacher and one at night showing a very curvy Congo dance party.SECOND HONEYMOON, unfortunately, tones down the charm, and plays up the conflict and comedy. Too bad. Tim Matheson and Roma Downey might have caught fire given enough music and romance. BORROWED HEARTS is a much more solid production. If in the mood for cute light romance, BORROWED HEARTS is the better of the two.

I thought that a former television movie that Roma Downey did, Borrowed Hearts, was wonderful, so I decided to watch this one. Obviously she doesn't try to make these films alike. Roma's character spent almost the whole movie crying! I don't see why she even cared about keeping her marriage with her husband. He'd scream at her and she'd start crying. That was the concept of the whole movie. Roma appeared to be trying hard to make the movie a success, but that apparently didn't happen. It had good ratings, but it might make some of her fans from her former movies stop watching them. It's obvious that some of Roma is capable of making good movies, but this wasn't one of them.
