Eddie James, a disgruntled actor who wants to do more than play "Mulligan the Rabbit" on a children's TV show, discovers life can change in a heartbeat when he accidentally gets into a car accident with single mother Annie Baker. In the unexpected friendship that develops between them, Eddie tries to help Annie's nearly-blind daughter Taylor get an operation to restore her sight.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The leads were NOT being good role models in the beginning. But the movie got better, so I give it a decent rating overall. My complaints are not the actors' fault. I feel that they did a good job overall,- especially the male lead. There was also one scene later where the male leads character was ill behaved which was disappointing (again, not the actor's fault). I don't understand why anyone would write a scene like that into the movie. I don't think anyone enjoyed that scene. I guess it was just to add drama into the plot, but that's like a vulgar joke, it's not a good way to do it. I did like the movie though, it gave me warm feelings overall.

I guess 8/10 seems high, but I think it's a cute B-rated movie, not "C." Anyway, full disclosure: I'm a sucker for these Hallmark movies. I look forward to them. After a grueling work week plus after-work life activities, I like coming home to relax and watch these predictable/cheesy (sometimes) movies. Accidentally in Love is one of the better movies done by Hallmark in the last several months. It's predictable, of course, but don't let that deter you. When predictability is a given, for me, it's all about the execution. The actors did great. They were funny, charming, and they played their parts well. As a fan of BH90210, but not a 'Kelly Taylor' fan, Jennie Garth was endearing as the character Annie. The guy who played Eddie was both jerky and charming in one package. Both of the kids were adorable. I just enjoyed the movie. Nothing that occurred seemed out of the realm of possibility (a problem w/some of Hallmark's latest). I'd recommend checking this out.

A wonderful picture in which we see the unusual way that a cad,so full of himself, who couldn't care less about others while attempting to stardom meets by chance a widow with a daughter going blind. How the two first meet in a traffic accident becomes absolutely hilarious, and how after disliking one another intensely, love blossoms when he finds out that her daughter is going blind.We have a great cast proving once again that a selfish man can be made to show humility when there is adversity.This is a movie for all ages, but especially it's for children and those who face adversity during their lifetimes.

This is a very pleasant romantic comedy from the Hallmark Channel, with all the trappings of a real comedy: good acting -- not only are the leads exceedingly handsome, but they are capable, and there's Marilu Henner and Fred Willard in support -- a story in which people change and some actual comedy as people fall into a pool. As Preston Sturges noted, if there is a pool, people must fall into it. Nor is it just a gag. Even the jokes serve to advance the plot.Most of the credit must go to a fine script by Peter Facinelli and Charles T. Daniels, who manage to combine some soap-opera-like plot points into the mix. However, kudos to everyone for a superior production.
