See You Soon

I'm a sucker for an epic love story but this was not one of them. It really appeared to be but just did not get deep enough for me. I really tried to give this a chance but it was just a bit too predictable & awkward. It had a lot of potential but it was just lacking in some areas and was a bit overdone in others. It was enjoyable but I just didn't get a strong sense of character or chemistry from either leads. The acting from the co-workers on the boat was very exaggerated compared to the tone of the rest of the film. For me it was very off balance in certain scenes. The cinematography was very beautiful, I did enjoy most of the scenery. All in all it was a good romantic movie but I doubt I will find myself watching it again.

Watched it on Amazon and though it was well put together as far as production value. The storyline is very romantic and well thought through. Loved the female lead!

I really enjoyed watching this movie. I got to journey with the characters as if I was there experiencing everything with them.

MIKE CESTARI and JENIA TANAEVA created a wonderful tale that was, just like what kim-lynn-mclean said, inspired by LOVE AFFAIR/AN AFFAIR TO REMEMBER, with a twist. It stars one of the writers, Jenia Tanaeva, as the very gorgeous photographer/bartender/chamber maid, Lana, opposite LIAM MCINTYRE as the soccer great, Ryan Hawkes. There were love scenes, yes, but everything was done in good taste. They also have great chemistry.

Also in this story is HARVEY KEITEL as Billy, Ryan's manager, and probably best friend.

PETER TERESCHENKO stars as Danny, a young boy who idolizes Ryan Hawkes. He is Lana's greatest treasure, and only child.

LARISA MALEVANNAYA stars as Grandma Marina. She is very convincing as the no-nonsense Babushka of Lana and Prababushka of Danny.

OLEG TAKAROV plays Ruslan, the philandering husband of Lana, and because of him, Lana is a battered wife. In fairness to him, he tries to be a good father to Danny.

POPPY DRAYTON plays Elise, the fiancee of Ryan, who is only after fame and glory. It was her fault why she and Ryan had an accident, but if it wasn't for that accident, Ryan wouldn't have met Lana.

CARLA ABRUZZO plays Amanda, the jealous coworker of Lana in the cruise ship. She is also one of her roommates.

MARIE ELISE CONTE plays Angela, one of Lana's roomies, who turned out to be her good friend.

DOINA TEODORU plays Sabine from Haiti, also one of Lana's roomies who became one of her good friends.

and MARIANA SMIRNOVA plays Alina, Danny's "girlfriend"

DAVID MAHMOUDIE's name is new to me, but he is very good. I like his style as a Director.

Kudos to EVERYONE involved in this film in any capacity onscreen and behind the scenes.

This movie was excellent! And wrongfully rated R. Was a very tasteful love story.

Let a woman tell a woman's story without car chases, uber-masculinity and foul language. Let an action star play a troubled, conflicted and sensitive person. Let there be exotic locations and foreign languages. Let the rest of us see a film like this without bashing it into pieces. I enjoyed the acting and emotionality of each character. I enjoyed the scenery. I enjoyed the kids. We need films like this where actors can demonstrate the range of human experience. So let them be!
