When the Mist Clears

This was an odd experience. The scenery is lush. The experienced actors seem to do their best with what they're given (the father had a lot going on for him). But the female lead made me think 'This must be the case of the director being so smitten by a woman they would film her against their own better judgement'. It's either that, or the lady must have been holding him for ransom. I have no other ideas as to how to explain the presence of the actress in this film. Also, the movie pretends to be taking you into the territory of the erotic genre, but does not deliver even close. It fails as a romance by being too blunt and obvious, it fails as a drama by giving extremely poor acting from the starlet. Guys, if you're going for erotica, just go there. Don't pretend to be above it. Cheap 50 Shades knock-offs do not play out well when there's no commitment.

This is the worst movie I have ever seen. While the setting is gorgeous and appears to be financed by the Italian tourism industry, this film is god awful. The dialogue is atrocious, the plot is stupid. They made good use of a drone. That's about the only positive thing I can say about this steaming pile. This was obviously made by people who think that all you have to do to make a good film is to put beautiful people in a beautiful setting and you have a good film. There is a reason the director's name is not known. Hopefully, he went into hiding. I would best describe this as a film that the Hallmark Channel would make if they wanted to branch out into extremely soft core porn.

Sometimes a film is so boring that you question what's the value of your time. I can see the audience intended for the film it but it still fails it's own audience. Nothing but a variant of the same love story we've been accustomed to.

Actors did a subpar job, felt like they were casted either through nepotism or based on looks alone and the worst part about it is that the actors constantly looked like they forgot their lines. The main character is really pretty but she acts like a 14yr old who was casted through a high school popularity poll. The rest of the cast doesn't help either, as they walk into sets; read their lines and then get off camera to never exist ever again. Dialogue scenes do nothing but show you how emotionless the actors are.

It's amazing how not active the plot is. Perhaps the writer didn't get enough time to flesh out the script/plot, because this feels like every other half-baked romance movie. Character interactions are constant expositions which keep droning on and on.

Overall, this is the type of movie you'd wanna play to do something else. Requires no attention at all, so you can play it when you trying to get to second base with a partner as background noise and once you're done, you'd give it one glance and know exactly what has happened.

This film is gorgeous.

Definitely not full on erotica though there are a few fairly erotic scenes, one being a very stunning love scene that is beautifully filmed.

The film feels honest, romantic and the performances are very natural and its carried by fantastic cinematography and a really wonderful score.

Don't waste time for watching this. Story line is very bad. And the acting is the same. Lady in the main character doesn't know acting at all. Her voice is..urgh.. Waste of time...
