Una aventura en Marruecos

Susannah Grant returns to directing, bringing to life the script she wrote for Netflix in this romantic drama about writers, Morocco and age differences.

Laura Dern, the lead actress, gives us a nice character that transports us to the talent of the actress who at this stage of her career can afford to give us even these romantic dramas where she does not have to play the best role of her career, but she makes us fall in love with a love story that fits her like a glove in her most mature stage. Being a recognized writer who falls in love with the always gallant Liam Hemsworth who provides a correct character with whom we can sympathize and at times identify. The couple is not overwhelmed by complete chemistry, but they allow us to validate their moments of romance and their interesting dialogues that are the great strength of the film.

The story has its highs and lows, but I think it balances out in its final summary, giving us a drama that we spend a pleasant time with, without any major demands and without having any major expectations of what it ends up delivering. It helps a lot that its director knows how to keep the pace and capture this world of writers looking for inspiration or finding themselves. As it usually happens, it supplies itself with certain simplistic clichés, but in the end they end up being more of a contribution than a disaster, which ends up benefiting the overall result of the film.

It is a romantic drama that is good for a weekend for couples or for those who enjoy this genre, it delivers, has good moments, and gives us a story that is believable. It is still a movie that we have seen before, with a correct result, without any major daring, with effective dialogues and a romance that will leave everyone happy.

Netflix's Journey Through Morocco will please fans of the genre, will leave those looking for something more novel wanting more, and will leave those who detest simplicity hating it. In short, a Netflix-style film, for Netflix and by Netflix, which is what you already know you'll find when you decide to watch it.

I found this movie to be quite beautiful. I love the simplicity and unlikeliness of the love story. It has a "quietness and simplicity", which a lot of people will confuse for "boring" or "slow" which leads to a great love story and a feel good vibe. Never expected Liam Hemsworth and Laura Dern to have such good chemistry but it really makes me want to find whatever they have because I am the same type of "quiet, solitary" person and it makes me feel like there someone out there for everyone and that the universe guides you, whether you want to or not, in the right direction. You should definitely watch it if you're in a "deep" state of mind and are looking for a beautiful escape :)

I saw this film for Laura Dern. And for Morocco. And , without high expectations about story - the recipe for romance is clear, simple and pretty inflexible -.

I was not very convinced about a writer reunion - sure, nice pretext for story- or about the chemistry between Dern and Hemsworth. But each of that is just insignificant, both actors offering beautiful performance, the themes, sensitives, being correct reflected, Lonely Planet being only remind of the importance of love, support of other, deceives, impulsive decisions, life in circle of writing, nice clash of different ages, experiences, perspectives, including in locations who seems be out of this...risk.

Unfair to be critic about film. The effort of each actor is obvious, the story gives some nice kicks to discover the life from new perspectives, the unrealism is in reasonable doses and the message is just bitter - sweet as a good chocolate. I admitt, the final, seeming pretty forced, was not exactly on my taste but this is only a minuscule detail. So, pretty romance.

Well, the plot is nothing new but still pretty watchable. I just did not feel the chemistry (on Laura Dern's part) that would make the story believable. I did not find anything appealing with Katherine's character. Let's face it: for a young, hot person to like someone this older, you would expect this older person to be wise, charming, interesting, etc. Katherine's character was nothing like that for me, just a pale, ill-tempered, shallow author. I wonder what would ignite a spark for Owen, maybe just his vulnerability at that time. I would also have liked to see more depth in Owen's previous relationship. Now I just feel bad for him in both of his relationships. Katherine's tantrums were hard to watch 😃

It's a nice weekend movie. I like both actors and it was easy to watch although some parts didn't make sense. The scenes were perfect, you really want to go there (which is in my checklist). The story was slow but the end was too quick. The other characters were too shallow. Ladies, have good glass of wine and enjoy Liam. He was just a pretty face for me before, now I saw a different angle. He is really talented. Laura Dern is one of my favorites since Big Little Lies. She never disappoints. I agree that the name of the movie has nothing to do with the story. Maybe it's from the publishing house, Lonely Planet.
