Afterburn/Aftershock

I gave it a 3 because the book was so much better. The main actor needs acting lessons, it felt like he was just reading the lines. There was no chemistry between the two main leads. The supporting characters held this movie together. Thank God for the book.

I gave out 5 out of 10 -- it cause The book was pretty okay and imaginative but for the movie -- I find really cheesy and as Fifty Shades' fan -- I still can feel the vibe here, in this movie. But for all the story line was pretty easy to process and I was hoping for one her book can become a movie and she chose this one

Never read the book, but my gosh who wrote this script?? I mean it is unimaginative, flat and downright horrible! I think the issue with the bad acting stems from the crap tasting and cringe lines that Jax has to spout. It may looked ok on paper (though I doubt it!) how could anyone be ok once said out loud is beyond me. The story was ok, I did like the female lead... I may have to read the book though cause this is mediocre at best!

Caitlyn Leahy plays Gia Rossi the sexy, self-assured businesswoman who is trying to sign brother and sister chefs to a new restaurant with her business partner and boss Lei Yeung. Unfortunately her high power ex, Jackson Rutledge, is brought in by the competition to prevent that from happening. This brings Gia and Jackson back into each other's very explosive spheres and their chemistry is electric.

But what makes this film...besides Caitlyn Leahy, is the Rossi family who are themselves restauranteurs, Vincent, Nico, and Angelo really sell the tight knit Italian-American family.

Not the heaviest in terms of plot, but enough to make the sexy story based on the book of the same name by Sylvia Day come to life and be enjoyable to watch. An early entry in the Passionflix lineup, I am hoping that we will get to set Caitlyn again because she was great m, giving a lot of urban energy to this film.

I couldn't get through this movie. The acting was real bad, especially the male lead.
