Lindsay Lohan Makes a Comeback Attempt with “Irish Wish” on Netflix
After her return in “Falling for Christmas,” Lindsay Lohan continues her comeback with the fantasy rom-com “Irish Wish” on Netflix. The film follows Lohan as Maddie, a book editor with unrequited love for handsome Irish author Paul Kennedy, played by Alexander Vlahos. When Maddie stumbles upon a magical stone chair in Ireland, her wish to marry Paul comes true, leading to a series of comedic mishaps and romantic entanglements.
Despite Lohan’s expertise in romantic comedies, “Irish Wish” falls short of expectations. The film’s dated and formulaic set pieces, lackluster chemistry between the leads, and contrived plot make it a disappointing watch. While rom-coms often rely on cliches, “Irish Wish” fails to deliver the charm and humor expected from the genre.
