Bryant spends most of his time taking care of his daughter, and working as an exec at an ad agency. But when he comes across the online profile for a woman in Los Angeles, he becomes intrigued. She’s beautiful, fun, quirky, and successful. They strike up a long-distance relationship traveling back and forth for several months before Bryant decides that she is the perfect woman for him. He proposes, she moves across the country, and within two more months, the couple is married. But this union is a far cry from newlywed bliss.

Artivels Undescribable Perfection
TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
wes-connors Handsome, wealthy and well-built Cameron Mathison (as Bryant Meyers) is having problems meeting women. Yes, you read that correctly. Amicably divorced, Mr. Mathison lives in Philadelphia and shares custody of his ten-year-old daughter with ex-wife Cynthia Preston (as Virginia). None of that really explains why Mathison must turn to online dating; possibly, he likes to fantasize. On his laptop, Mathison meets attractive Sydney Penny (as Georgia). Although she lives in Los Angeles, they begin an online relationship. Their first physical meeting goes extraordinarily well. They end up satisfied, under the sheets. Marriage quickly follows, but Ms. Penny reveals a jealous side...This is one of several "Lifetime" TV movies portraying the dangers of meeting people online...Written by Christine Conradt and directed by Curtis Crawford, it follows familiar territory and is competently made. Neatly trimmed Mathison and pouting Penny are nicely matched. She gives an occasional crazy edge to her saner scenes and he adds an adult immaturity to aid in accepting his character. Little Emily Burley (as Megan) may be developmentally delayed, which is a nice touch. There is good support, especially from Krista Bridges (as Zenya Ivanski). She and director Crawford let us know much about "Zenya" while spilling cocktails with Mathison. Crawford keeps the camera steady and gives us great shots of table and counter tops. However, the ending is tacky.***** The Wife He Met Online (4/21/12) Curtis Crawford ~ Sydney Penny, Cameron Mathison, Cynthia Preston, Krista Bridges
America America "Cinema is the ultimate pervert art, it doesn't give you what you desire-- it tells you how to desire" -Slavoj Ziezek Crawford's attempt at a post-modern pre-neo-industrial post-structural meta-narrative works to critique the ever overarching sentiments of twenty first century nihilism in a post-captitalistic state. We meet our protagonist, Bryant, as he navigates an existential angst of the hegemonically constructed socialistic norms of love, lust and didactic sexuality. This film is a great look into society as a whole and works as a great narrative to discuss mental health issues. From the way the entire plot is carried out seamlessly to the more technical aspects of the filmography, this film is absolutely fantastic. Crawford's use of camera angles and the low-key lighting gives it a classic film noire feel that matches Carol Reed's The Third Man. Then the plot... oh my God... it is incredible, there was not a single moment in the entire film where I was not holding my breath and not on the edge of my seat. I highly recommend this film that is bound to be a neo-classic. Lifetime films has truly outdone themselves this time.
ilania_a Somehow, this average film captivated me and I watched the whole length of it. The name of the film relates to the life of many unattached people nowadays – cyberspace dating! So perhaps it should be viewed before venturing into a relationship based on e-mail and Skype, without actual networking, family or school connections. There is romance in this film but it is not a "You Got Mail" or "Restless in Seattle" either. I was intrigued because it was made in Canada, with many Canadian Actors, thus far seen on TV soaps, or Dancing with the Stars, or some horror movies, in short – unknowns. But the acting was good. There is a plot that moves along, and at the end there is an odd moment when Bryant receives a package from the on-line dating company congratulating the two correspondents wishing them a good life together. What was a bit unbelievable are the excellent relations between the ex-wife and her new husband and the ex-husband….somehow it does not seem that real. I was impressed by the costume designs by Andy Tait, Georgia in particular was beautifully attired throughout the film.
PrincessPeachx For the people rating it "1" and saying it sucks... IT'S A LIFETIME MOVIE!!!!!!! None of their movies have spectacular plots, or acting, or direction. That's just the Lifetime standard. Once you realize that you're not going to be watching an Oscar-winner, you can learn to enjoy their movies.This movie is entertaining for what it is. There were no shocks. Or suspense (though it was meant to convey both). The plot was predictable, especially the ending. But it was fun to watch for 90 minutes. If you need something to entertain yourself for a few hours, this movie, along with the rest of the Lifetime film catalog, will do the trick. Just don't expect too much, okay?The movie is about a single man and woman who join a dating website to find love. They eventually find it in each other, though she lives in LA and he lives in Philadelphia. After going on a few dates, they fall in love and decide to get married; their wedding and "love story" is so highly coveted a film crew from the site films their wedding. We learn the man has a daughter, and holds a close relationship with his ex-wife and her new husband. Soon after the two move in together, the new wife begins having hallucinations and showing extreme, possessive jealously towards every single woman in her husband's life, even if they have no romantic connection.Soon things escalate, leading to a final showdown, which again... wasn't a shocker. It was actually a bit of a letdown.I gave this movie a 6/10 because, like I said before, it is what it is: a Lifetime film. If you've watched one Lifetime movie, you will know what to expect from this one.
