Getting to Know You

The main characters are great, with such chemistry and believability. They kept this movie together.

Unfortunately, most of the side characters were more like caricatures, almost derailing the entire thing. Have to place the blame on the writer/director.

The characters and antics of the hotel employees was just too over the top, and ended up being more of a distraction than anything. I'm not convinced that they even needed to exist, as they lent virtually nothing to the plot.

I saw this movie on Amazon Prime and decided to give it a try. I was ambivalent about my expectations. It could have been just some silly slapstick, or an over the top attempt at humor, or overly sappy. It avoids all of that. While the story line might be slightly implausible, in the long run, the characters act appropriately. I wanted the story in end differently, but the ending I wanted would have been too cliche, so kudos to the director and writers for avoiding it.

I don't believe I had seen any of the actors before, so I had no expectations. The cast did not disappoint.

Overall, it's a really good movie.

Natasha Little, Rupert Penny-Jones, and Rachel Blanchard star in this well made film. The trick that works is the visible chemistry between Little and Penny-Jones. That tension never realized builds like a forest fire that consumes everything. Their attraction is so explosive that the screen is filled with that unrealized love. This is the first time I have seen something so tangible that is unrequited. There is a lesson in the power of not acting out a momentous emotion until the final moment is consumed by the longest most gentle, lingering kiss. This is a perfect love story where no intercourse interferes.

If you ever encountered someone for a brief period and wondered 'what if', you will enjoy this film. Not hilarious, but some comical moments and no sap. Recommend.

Not 100% solid all the way through. Some of the plot contrivances are forced, but nonetheless, surprisingly touching here and there - and the unpredictable plot keeps us guessing and involved to the end. NIce to see a movie without villains or violence.
