Abduction club

Set in Waterford in the 18th century this is a comedy-drama about a group of men who must find wives. They have no titles or land so end up capturing woman and marrying them. It's Seven Brides for Seven Brothers done as a costume drama! The problem is that it's not that good. Some of the cast look like Jonathan Myers and Julia Roberts! Fast paced, contrived, and forgettable.
