The Maltese Holiday

This was NOT filmed in Malta at all.

Airport was not Luqa airport Actors were not Maltese Hotel were not in Malta

Some overhead footage was of the Maltese islands yes

Terrible movie What a shame it was misleading to viewers.

I am Maltese but I doubt the main actors were really in Malta. The accent of the presumably Maltese actors is atrocious. It seems arabic but it is good to know that we Maltese people have a good English accent. The amazing panoramic views are definitely Maltese. Also, during the Christmas holidays it is quite cold but ironically the main actress had a dip in the pool and most of the actors wore short-sleeved clothes. I believe that more research about the Maltese culture should have been done before the movie was made. I enjoyed it solely because I am Maltese.

Is this an entry to a film festival or something? Perhaps a student study to get into film school, a final project? It's terrible.

The acting overall is, ummm well, it's obvious acting, and at times you feel like they are "reading" their scripts. You are not immersed or invested in the story because of the bad acting. There is the 32 minutes of monotony before they even conversed cordially with each other, and then more boring downtime. Then, there's the 8 minutes of non-dialog music video telling the story before going back to BAD acting! In the beginning it feels like this really for the Tic toc crowd, but then it also seems too boring at times to keep their attention span. The beginning credits start like a Beat Saber or Guitar Hero though so you expect it to stay active, ha! NOT!

Overall it's HORRIBLE and a chore to finish! Well, maybe if you're the 15 year-old-crowd and watch every "influencer" maybe then you'll love it. But OMG! How do these people think everything they do is sooooo important they have to be rude to other humans and record every stupid little thing in their life? Oh, look now I'm in the bathroom, now I'm drinking, I'm sitting on a plane, now I'm still on the plane... How can you think you're the center of the world that your every breath needs to be published for the world to watch? And he's so miserable and crotchety in general, and to another person all because he miserable about his life circumstances and his opinion of the woman who he feels put him in this position of being alone at the holiday. He should never have gone in the first place. If he really had all those issues, he shouldn't have been so easily talked into going. This would have been better if he wanted to go, he could still be standoffish for her stupid influencer junk and it would still have succeeded in the same outcome. The whole thing is annoying and not fun watch at all! I watch movies to escape reality not be beat over the head with it multiple times! Bleh!

I mean she was Miss bubbly personality, but equally as clueless about proper conduct. He's Mr. Life sucks take it out on anyone in his path. This should make for a fun meet up when you break through all that, right! Ummm... nope, it takes too long to get there, and it's not worth the effort to do so, not to mention it's magically from hate to love in an instant. I wouldn't want miss yappy sitting next to me on the plane while I was trying to sleep. And I would think Mr. Grumpy about everything didn't need me to keep trying to "cheer him up". Beyond the whole ridiculous tic toc or Instagram posts it was also "B" boring with capitol B, slow, predictable, and just generally a waste of time to watch. There are so many other cute meet-up stories this one just doesn't do anything for me...yeah, most are predictable, but less annoying than this!!! Her stupidity gets worse, way to kill yourself with ignorance of only worrying about a picture. Stop being in front of camera and start paying attention to the world around you. The dialog is terrible. Can I use enough adjectives to describe the terribleness of this movie, LOL! As annoying as my review is, the movie is worse!

I have no idea why Amazon recommended this to me, but to give a fair review I watched the whole terrible thing. Yeah, next time, I'm hitting fast forward for a Amazon recommendation that starts off this bad, because you know what, it doesn't get better no matter how many minutes more you watch! I wish it was like YouTube and you could speed it up and hear it in fast mode! LOL!

First no direct flight from usa to malta airoprt was not malta hotel was not on malta

produders shuld ahve studied malta a lot more to create an authntic film.

I get the feeling that some people had the idea: "Let's make a movie about Malta" ... and that's as far as they got.

There is no real story here. Girl meets boy. Sparks don't fly. Contrivance follows. They get together.

There are some nice beauty shots of Malta. But the movie clearly wasn't filmed anywhere close. Most shots look like somebody's neighborhood in upstate New York.

Production values are very limited. A new low in cheap is reached by having a character talk to her phone, instead of showing any action.

Can't comment on the acting. The script is so anemic that most instruction manuals are more exciting. Not much to work with there!

Your average Hallmark movie looks like Gone With the Wind compared to this snoozer. Get a travel video about Malta instead.
