Ghosts of Girlfriends Past

 

Connor Mead has a problem with love and it scares him to death to settle down and commit to one woman and one relationship.  The word PLAYER suits him just fine.  He claims he doesn't believe in love but he loves Jenny. The beginning of movie has him surrounded with women wearing lingerie.

He keeps on waving good-bye to them. There's no stability in his life. His beliefs come from somewhere and it's his uncle  Wayne. Before Connor became a womanizer his uncle played the cards before Connor existed. He wasted time playing women and taught Connor to  do the same.

It's amazing how his brother invited him to his wedding. His brother Paul is marrying Sandra and he received him with loving arms. Connor doesn't believe marriage is necessary.  It's amazing ing how they're brothers. They ask him to give a speech and he's annoyed by it.

He makes a pass at an older woman and didn't think it was rude. He sees his first love there and Jenny knows him well...Unfortunately Connor's the guy that broke her heart. So much she knows he shouldn't be there. 

Uncle Wayne shows up and  says he wasted time living the way he did and doesn't want Connor to do the same. He's that put out or get out type of guy. Women have been cheated on and then dumped by this guy, and what he did to Jenny wasn't cool.

The funny scene is when all of Connor's ex-girlfriends show up to remind him of the wrong things he's done. Some said he brought shame to their family and others never seen him again. Cause and effect is so important in this movie.

Well, Connor sees Jenny talking to another guy and he gets jealous. His lost opportunity sinks him on the inside. He is guided by three ghosts including Allison. It all began when he was a kid and he gains a new perspective on how to treat women. It's more of some kid of game that hurts them first before they hurt me.  There's people who behave that way because they were hurt by somebody else.

Paul tells his soon to be wife h cheated when they weren't that serious. Connor gets involved and wrong things were said. Of course he's going to defend his brother. However, it wasn't the right time.

Things get tricky when Connor destroys his kid brother's wedding cake. Things begin to get worse in the real world and he's asked his brother to leave because he wasn't happy to be there so he needs to leave. Connor goes to get things back on track and leaves to stop the mess he created.

He sees the future and doesn't like it. So he learns the wedding is off and he goes speed driving in the snow to stop her from leaving. He helps her understand Paul loves her. And they get married.

Connor and Jenny reconcile and find themselves dancing in the snow. A beautiful ending for decades of missing each other. And I believe some romantic scenes were great and others were strange. So I believe this film is worthy of three 🌟 🌟 🌟.
