Metacritic-Rezensionen

To be honest, the longer I watched La Dolce Villa, the more I started to think its very nonsensicality was the charm. It is not aiming for realism, even the kind of realism a previous generation of romantic comedy might have tried to evoke.

La Dolce Villa is a feel-good film that forgoes proper tension-building for a more headache-free delivery. The result is a mixed bag that I enjoyed occasionally, though its inability to spark a greater emotional reaction is the film’s greatest weakness.

Ultimately, “La Dolce Villa” is about as authentic an Italian experience as a night at the Olive Garden.

It’s pretty enough and just engaging enough to suggest it might just become a series pilot.
