    Average in every way

    This was pretty much your standard made for TV low budget yawner. It was painfully clear that the theme of this movie was on women's empowerment as the main characters where all very independent with offish male counterparts added in out of necessity.

    The writing was bad with most characters taking on paper thin stereotypes with lines so predictable that you could watch it without sound and miss very little.

    The casting was no better with a female doctor who looked all of 22 who was to be the mother of another who looked no younger than 20 herself. Acting serious seems to be no substitute for real maturity and as a result, the doctor was almost laughable.

    In the end, all was joyous, as one must expect from this kind of bone grinder. No surprises but you could pump your fist in the air and say triumphantly that "women rule"!

    Love Finds A Home...Be It Ever So Humble, This is Heartwarming ***1/2

    Sequel to "Love Finds A Wing," this is a very nicely done film.

    In the sequel, Lillian has been adopted and it's several years later. Annie, married and pregnant, visits her fellow doctor friend,Dr. Owen, who desperately wants a baby, but seems unable to become pregnant.

    Lillian finds a love interest, an assistant to her adoptive dad, the latter has become quite overprotective.

    Patty Duke, who at 63, is starting to look her age appears as Annie's mother-in-law, a mid-wife set in her ideas. The film is of value since both Duke and Doc Owen come to understand and tolerate each other. At times, Ms. Duke looks like Irene Ryan portraying Granny Clampett in the old Beverly Hillbillies television show. Nevertheless, Duke turns in a very good performance as a spunky lady.

    The movie is also a good one as it avoids violence and ends in a way that we will be ready for part 3.

    Love Finds a Home

    On a scale of one to ten with ten being the best, this was a wonderful movie. The acting was great. The actors/actresses did a superb job. The plot was tasteful and in line with the previous 7 parts of this series. Oh how I wish we had more movies like this. Production, direction, filming were excellent. I'm only sad that I can't look forward to any more movies from this series. Thank you Hallmark, and EVERYONE who participated IN and helped make this series wonderful. Does anyone know if they are going to have a movie after this one?? I loved this movie and every other one in this series!!! I would hate to see this be the last movie!

    Casting was WAY off

    I had to come here to make sure I was seeing what I was seeing. The mom looked like the sister of the daughter. Patty Duke looks 80 here. Duff has never been able to act. This was just sloppy casting.

    8. The story of Belinda & Annie: All about the pregnancy.

    The eighth installment in the Hallmark's 'Love Comes Softly' movie series based on the book of the same name by Jannete Oke. In a sense it is the final movie, because the story won't move further towards the future in the next film. Everything halts here, only the timeline shifts prior to the first film in the remaining series. That's what I have heard, the rest of the films in the series are the prequels. Kind of interesting, but now let us talk about this film.

    Now the Lillian is a teenager who is helping her mother in the clinic, though she's not the centre of the story. Like in all the previous films, an admirer for her flash-ins from nowhere. So there is a young romance after all, but in other side of the narration a moral fight is set between the mother- in-law of Annie and Belinda. Yes, Haylie Duff has returned as Annie as I was wanted and she's pregnant. As usual how the story takes up the shape and ends is the remaining part.

    "I learned something today that they did not teach me in medical school"

    There's a line 'our children grow up, start to spreading wings'. That should have been in the previous film, but makes sense in a way for this story. That concerns the father's over protective on the Lillian case which leads a small quarrel. Surprisingly, there are no deaths like the first time ever, instead ready to welcome a new member in the family. But a little saddens about Belinda's side of the narration, whether her wish is granted or not is remains mystery. It should have been puzzled out here itself or one more film for that would have been nice, and also where Lillian takes full control in the series.

    That means, it's never going to end, but keeps going. So I'm happy the one way or the other they finished it off. And another reason is the author haven't written anymore book in the series. I have heard who read the books said the movie versions are different and it was shrunk to the half of what the book is but still worth to have a peek. Then you know there's always some people who don't like comparing the book they have loved with the movie adapted from it. I haven't read a single 'Love Comes Softly' book, but watched all the films and enjoyed them.

    Western is the least watched by me from all the genre. In that, western-dramas are very rare for me. Refreshing from the guns and horses, cops versus thieves, trains, heist, bounty hunters and the Indians. Here it ended with a good message in a calm and simple way. Especially the pregnancy and childbirth were the core topic, how those were handled at those times was demonstrated somewhat incredibly for a television movie. I think that's it from this space for now, so then let us meet with the prequels.

    7/10
