Serendipity
Can once in a lifetime happen twice? Well yes, if you force it.
Beckinsale! Cusack! SATC alumni Moynihan & Corbett! Eugene Levy!!! Honestly a pretty decent cast for the time, in a movie about love at first sight, and then being a total and absolute jerk to the people you’re with in order to find that fateful one again
Is it a Christmas movie? Well, Hallmark aired it in the midst of the holiday movies, so, I guess so 🤷🏻♀️
Def’n of serendipity: luck that takes the form of finding valuable or pleasant things that are not looked for. THEY SPEND THE MOVIE LOOKING FOR EACH OTHER.
I know Lars is supposed to be a little much, but the cultural appropriation and LGBTQ jokes aren’t great. Movie shows it’s age there for sure.
Pour one out for Bridget Moynahan who finds herself in the same position again and again? Serendipity, SATC… art imitating life?
The flowing scarves and floating tissue paper in a room filled with burning candles during the Lars proposal scene makes me anxious AF.
Hap-Hap-Happiest Scene:
Eugene Levy provides some good comedy and my ultra sweet tooth and I would love to actually go to Serendipity 3
Wait! Why do I recognize that person?
Kate Beckinsale - you know her from every man’s fantasy.
SCORE: 5/10

The romance between a New Yorker and a British woman is short-lived as they let fate determine if they are meant to be together. Years later, they hope that destiny reunites them.
