  This movie is an incredible story about a woman who learns to follow her heart. The story starts out with Amy Meyer, (Kimberly Williams-Paisley) at age seven with her dying mother making a timeline for Amy's life. Amy takes the timeline and follows through with everything on it, right down to her mother's prediction that she will have six boyfriends and that number seven will be "the one." The trouble is, Amy finds who she thinks is Mr. Right is Daniel (Brad Rowe) who is only number six! So Amy must find a substitute boyfriend to stand in as number six so Daniel will be her seventh boyfriend. Talk about confusing!!! Amy gets Peter, (Patrick Dempsey) her "bagel man", to play the part of boyfriend number six, only to find herself falling for Peter. Now, with her heart being pulled in both directions, she must make a decision that will change the course of her life forever. Peter tries to convince Amy to let go of the timeline and just do what her heart truly desires. Daniel just wants her to focus on her career as a lawyer. The movie leaves to wandering until the very end, which one she will choose. This movie is also the ultimate Romantic Comedy! I loved it and would highly recommend it to anyone who loves to see, love-always-wins-out-in-the-end, and having-the-girl-wind-up-with-the-perfect-guy! I hope you enjoy this movie as much as I did!
  
  

• An adorable romantic film!

  I happened upon this film on TV one night, and only caught the last hour but it got my attention- When I saw that is was available on DVD I had to order it because if the first half was a good as the second half that I had seen, then this was a keeper! Well, sure enough the entire movie is delightful! The characters are true to life and any movie with Patrick Dempsey is worth my time- If you enjoy those old romantic comedies of the 40's, this has some of those qualities- I have now watched this movie about 10 times, and never tire of it. When I need a lift, this movie always does the job! A really sweet film...give it a try, you might like it...
  
  

• A delightful and romantic love story

  This is an original ABC Family Movie which first aired on network TV in July 2003 and, thanks to an enormous following and fan request, this wonderful movie will soon be available for purchase on DVD. Amy (Kimberly Williams-Paisley) was seven years old when her mother died. Before her Mom died, she left Amy a timeline to remember her by and to help her cope with her passing. The timeline included pivotal times of a young girl growing up, college, career, etc., leading up to finding her soulmate. Her Mom told her that lucky number 7 would be her true love. Enter number 6, Daniel, played by Brad Rowe, a meticulous, organized, career oriented handsome young man with whom Amy falls in love. Daniel seems to be the perfect match--Amy is also meticulous, organized, and career oriented and hopes to make partner in her law firm. However, Daniel is number 6. Before Amy gets in too deep, she concocts a plan to make Daniel number 7 by inserting another guy, Peter, played by the luscious Patrick Dempsey, into the number 6 slot. Peter is a sweet, very cute and good natured guy who manages a bagel store (but there is much more to Peter than meets the eye). He asks Amy to go to a friend's wedding for the weekend and she agrees to do so, with the intention of making him number 6, so that when she gets back home, she will pick up with Daniel where they left off. Peter asks her to pretend that she is his girlfriend because his ex-fiancee will be at the wedding and he does not want his friends to think he is still suffering. Neither one of them anticipate the feelings that they will have for each other. The next 45 minutes of the movie are my favorite due to the onscreen chemistry between Kimberly and Patrick. I must say that Patrick Dempsey has grown from a young skinny kid into a most handsome and charismatic man at age 37. I am truly smitten, and would love to see more of him on the big screen. Although the premise of the movie is farfetched, the story works because of the excellent performances of the cast and the chemistry between Kimberly and Patrick. Another plus is an incredible soundtrack. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys romance, great acting and good music. You will not be disappointed.

  I believe the song sung at the wedding is by eastmountainsouth - "So Are You To Me"....spelled like that. The ferry ride song is by Chantal Kreviazuk...."Time" Those two were the ones played the most.....throughout the film...saw the movie the first time it was shown...catch it every time since and took three months to find the music and artists....hope this helps.....Wish ABC family would put all of their movies like this one on DVD to sell. Thrilled this one finally made it!!

  PS

  In reference to ABC's Movie "This Time Around"....Song played while they are at the flower market is by Fisher- "Don't Wanna Love You."
  
  

• Lucky Seven

  
  By A13JAWAEMY0WPM on 2004-07-29
  The Lucky Seven was about a woman, Amy Meyer, whose mother died at when she was only 7. Before she dies, she makes a timeline of Amy's life. Amy takes the timeline and follows it exactly. Her mother's timeline shows that she will have 6 boyfriends and then the 7th one will be "the one". So far, everything on the timeline has worked perfectly for Amy. She finally meets a guy, Daniel, that is absolutely perfect for her, but he's only number 6. She then seeks out a temporary number 6, the bagel man, Peter(dempsey). He takes her to a friend's wedding on an island and pretends that she is his girlfriend. He shows her how to be spontaneous and tries to show her how to be free and not so restricted to the timeline. She is soon caught up in between the two and tries to decide who she is really in love with.
  This movie had a good plot and a good idea, but was way too predictable. but i have to agree that dempsey was really hot in this movie. It's worth watching, but not buying. It's a feel good movie that teaches a little.
  
  
• Sweet Romantic Comedy
  By A399W215YXYNOX on 2005-05-06
  I love when you can find a movie rental that just hits the spot. You know, when you just want to sit back with that someone special or just relax after a long day at work, laugh a bit, get all sentimental and when all is said and done feel satisfied with a predictable, but enjoyable ending. Well this is that kind of movie. The casting is perfect, the soundtrack is pretty great too, (check out eastmountainsouth!) and the setting is breathtaking...just everything about the movie makes you feel good! It's a movie you'll put in the DVD player when ever you need a pick-me-up or a wine-down. Yes it's a chick flick...but it's also smart and funny so it wouldn't be complete torture for a man to sit through and ladies Patrick Dempsey is irresistible in this movie. Bagels anyone!
  
  
• Gem of a movie
  By A12YJIYX023T43 on 2005-01-02
  I watch a lot of movies, and on my recent visit to the video store I thought I had seen pretty much everything on the shelf. I rented Lucky Seven because of Patrick Dempsey. I liked him in Sweet Home Alamaba. What a surprise for me as this movie was wonderful. I watched it several times before returning it, and then had to buy it to ad to my video collection. Wonderful romantic movie.
  
  
• SUCH a cute movie!
  By A2VTBY5MY8Z6VS on 2005-06-22
  When I sat down to watch this movie, I had my apprehensions - the plot seemed so unoriginal ( the typical girl meeting 2 hot guys and having to decide which to go for... ). But this movie surprised me. The acting was great, and the story line had enough humor and obstacles to keep me interested. I particularly liked the fact that the choice she had to make between the guys wasn't so obvious - e.g. going for the sweet but quiet guy over the charming but sleazy hottie. This is definitely making it into my movie collection!
  
  
• Cute movie
  By AY99WNAYRUIFC on 2005-01-28
  I've loved Kimberly Williams ever since The Tenth Kingdom (which I also reccommend). She's brilliant in this movie along with Patrick Dempsey, the perfect "bagel guy."
  
  
• Cute Happy Movie

  Lucky Seven is a cute, happy movie. Great for a Friday night with a bowl of ice cream and fuzzy pj's.
  
  
• A Great Chick Flick
  By AQU82O4CRBZ2E on 2004-01-07
  Although this movie continues to air on ABC Family from time to time, buy the DVD! This chick flick is one you won't want to miss. Keeps your attention. Patrick Dempsey has indeed grown up from the unpopular guy in "Can't Buy Me Love" back in 1987. If you like true romance, this dvd is for you.

  this movie is a sweetheart!! Kimberly Williams-Paisley and the 2 leading men, Patrick Dempsey and Brad Rowe have great chemistry. I won't give anything away, but this is a great date movie, resembling the likes of Sweet Home Alabama...Patrick Dempsey playing a scruffy guy will def. steal your heart!
  
  
• what a great love story
  By A29P4PL0LFJH3Q on 2004-06-23
  I saw this movie on TV and had to buy it!!! I love this movie & Patrick Dempsey. The Island is beautiful. One of the best movies I've seen in a long time!!!
  
  
• One of my favorite movies!
  By AQMID6E92SJS on 2004-06-10
  I found this at Hollywood Video last night, and had never heard of it. (I don't have cable). But, I like Dempsy, and knew it had to be good. From start to finish it was a great movie! Dempsy is so dang hot in this movie!!! And the chemistry between him and Kimberly Williams is so strong. I'm watching it again tonight! (Hey, I get it for 5 days!!) I will probably watch it 5 times before dropping it off. ;-) But, you won't go wrong with this movie.
  
  
• pure romance
  By A2ZDBUNQIICUNJ on 2005-10-17
  ...what a terrific movie! Want to know how many times i've watched it already (and will continue to watch it)? LOL "Too, too many," if you ask my beau...a definite keeper...Lucky Seven, that is, for your dvd library!...jury's still out on the beau LOL.
  
  
• Kimberly Williams is fun to watch, but overall this movie is kind of shallow and cheesy....
  By A3N1H8BSULHP3U on 2007-12-02
  Kimberly Williams and Patrick Dempsey make a cute pair in this movie, which is the main reason I watch it. The plot is pretty cheesy because William's character is superstitious (she believes her 7th boyfriend will be the one she marries and lives happily ever after with) and a bit flaky.
  
  The plot is rather cheesy too because she manipulates her relationships so that the guy she's interested in - who would be #6 - will be the seventh one she gets to marry. So she begins a false relationship with a sweet guy who's in love with her and desperate for a wedding date, so that he can be #6 and she can then marry the hoped for #7. Naturally things get all mixed up and she ends up falling for #6, but only after she hurts him terribly. So I feel sorry for the guy and angry at the girl for hurting him, but it all turns out ok in the end.
  
  I originally saw this on ABC Family Channel (around Valentines Day I think) so you may want to see if you can catch it on there sometime before purchasing.
  
  
• a very romantic love story
  By A2MNMXU2QORPSR on 2004-03-25

• This movie will take your breath away!
  By A1E6C94Q000SUC on 2004-04-10
  My sister and me rented this movie five nights ago, we watched it twice that night, and watched it up untill we had to return it tonight. We've seen it at least 8 times, and we can't seem to get over how sweet this movie is. I hated having to drop it in the return box. Right after the second time we had whatched it I went to the computer and started downloading every EastMountianSouth song I could get my hands on. If you like One Fine Day, and While You Where Sleeping this will be a good addition to your collection.
  
  
• Unexpected Gem
  By AUM6Q8M9VJFGH on 2004-05-31
  After seeing this surprising film, it's gone into the same place on shelves as "When Harry Met Sally," "Sleepless in Seattle," and "The Very Thought of You." The storys differ, but they all deliver a blissfull dose of satisfaction and bliss upon viewing. What's amazing is that "Lucky Seven" was made for television and yet still delivered such a great production. Definitely has made it into my all time favorite romantic comedies and I hadn't even heard of it before seeing it for sale on DVD. Took a chance and I'm all the happier for it.

  Now... let's see how my wife likes it when she get back into the country.
  
  

• For every Dempsey Fan's collection! This one is a keeper!

  Patrick Dempsey is amazing as always! Great story line that will hook you and pull you in.
  
  
• Patrick Dempsey Favourite
  By ATG3VLIMPYNZE on 2006-07-17
  Any fan of Patrick Dempsey will love this movie. He and Kimberly Williams-Paisley are fantastic. One of my all-time favourite Romantic Comedies. Their chemistry in this movie is infectious.
  
  
• Great Romantic Movie With A Touch Of Comedy To It!
  By ACJHHJRE2FXCR on 2006-09-15
  This movie is one that would re-instate that hope for someone to find the match they are looking for. True to the sense that it is something you will find only in a movie but it gives reassurance to those that are looking for that. The main character Amy (Kimberly Williams-Paisley) plays an amiable, quirky character who has everything in place in her life and is left with finding her long life partner. She encounters two guys who are not in a sense opposites but are different. Her relationships with both are different as well. I don't want to get into the storyline too much and give too much away. I'll say this movie allows the main character to explore what is really important for her for finding that long-term partner. One of the settings in this movie is amazing (the island) and does alot to the mood of the film. This movie is also a must see for any Patrick Dempsey fan. The only reason why I gave the movie a 4 instead of a 5 is that some things were not very realistic, like Amy's father and their relationship. They were too much like buddies and he seemed too relaxed. I felt that an older actor would have made it more convincing. Also, putting a bit more focus on him moving on with his life would have been nicer. Other than that I would have given the movie 4.5 but there wasn't that option available so I gave it a 4.
  
  
• Finding Mr. Right...
  By A3QIJ5OCQJE8WC on 2006-10-13
  We all have a picture of who our Mr. Right should be; how he should look, dress, act and be. This movie shows you that you can meet your presumed Mr. Right and it still doesn't fit because your soul mate sometimes comes in a package you least expect. I don't want to give too much of this movie away. Just watch it. It's a good lesson for us gals in our mid to late twenties plugging on through life and searching for the one. It's McDreamy ladies... need I say more?

  I first saw this movie on the Family Channel several years ago and fell in love with it! What a great, light hearted, and fun movie! This is
  "clean" romantic, fun movie to watch. Great actors too! This is one you will want to watch over and over again.
  
  
• AMAZING
  By A3QSQLTG343PFY on 2007-03-23
  This was such an amazing movie (to my surprise). My daughter wanted this movie and when I read what it was about it truly sounded abit well boaring....but I was seriously wrong. It was so good, I am sure I have watched it with everyone I know. Get this movie! you will not be disappointed!

  Very interesting the way the film develops. Kimberly Williams-Paisley, and Patrick Dempsey do a good job, and the comedy keeps it moving very good.
