Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

tardusty Finally, I watched a Harlequin turned TV movie that was pretty cute and romantic!! Let me just say that I found out VERY VERY late that the Harlequin series was turned into TV movies. They had the "Shades of Love" series done in the late 80's and of course the Harlequin series for the 90's. I watched one of the Shades of Love series, and it was OK, but unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to enjoy it that much anymore. I still have two more 80's tapes coming that I ordered so who knows I might change my mind. Then I watched one of the Harlequin series (A Matter of Marriage and Broken Lullaby) which I also reviewed - they were both alright, but I wasn't really that impressed - yet. Now DIAMOND GIRL. This DVD I ordered (along with So Hard to Forget which I shall watch later this week!) because I liked the plot and I saw it got good reviews. Well, if you are a Harlequin romance lover, you like hunky men and like cute plots, then you will like Diamond Girl! First off, Regan is EXTREMELY hunky and cute. GREAT body. I thought he personified the mean sorta arrogant hero type VERY well. Claire is definitely cute in her own way and she I think the actress gave the Claire character justice. She was spunky, perky and a bit sarcastic - which was cute! A definite great match to Regan. Now Denny, the playboy brother - yup - he was perfect too. The way he talked was a bit too, smarmy or syrupy - cant find the perfect word to describe but the Denny actor definitely looked and acted the part. As for the story it was VERY cute. Just like in a romance novel ya know? There were no boring parts, and the scenery looked great. All in all I RECOMMEND this movie. If your a sappy romance lover, this one is for you!

mickeyrat77 This is actually not that bad of a movie. While certainly the script and the acting leave much to be desired, there is actually great chemistry between all of the actors. I feel bad for Dyan Cannon, who is a surprise to see in this and horribly underutilized. If you happen to catch this movie (I saw it on WE - formerly the Romance Network) plan on doing something else while you watch it - like opening a bottle of wine and working on a puzzle or something. And make sure no men are around as I doubt they'd be able to stand anymore than 5 minutes or so. The movie "Diamond Girl" is sort of like pizza rolls, so terribly bad for you and greasy, processed and cheaply made, yet you find yourself consuming the lot until the very end.

bdodom38 Not only is Jonathan Cake one of the hottest men, but he is a excellent actor. The chemistry between Joely Collins and Cake is hot and romantic. I personally love Harlequin romance novels and this movie is the answer to my prayers. I have always hoped that they would start making movies to these books, and now they have. Regan Montana is this movie is complex, sexy, charismatic, and anything you could want in a man. The movie is interesting seeing the romance that starts between Claire and Regan. The switch of couples in the end was the perfect touch to unite Reagan and Claire at last. It is also so funny to see Regan running from the things he loves, but when his brother makes him realize his true feelings Regan begs Claire to spend the rest of her life with him.

castrus I liked this movie, thought it was very cute. It's not going to win any Oscars, but I doubt that was the intent. Nice "feel good" movie. Would love to purchase it and add to my collection, but I have been unable to track it down and have not seen it aired again in over a year.
