Sous le soleil de Riccione

This is an exemplary teen summer movie. Appealing characters, boy meets girl, boy loses girl, bog gets girl. And it takes place at the Italian beach. It really can't be better. I've watched it twice and will watch it again.

The plot of the movie is neither original nor interesting. Another sexist italian movie whose (I hope little) success is essentially based on girls' beauty. The woman is nothing but an object of men's desire. Another wasted opportunity. Netflix should cancel this movie from their platform.

Under the riccione sun. Or, in europe, it's sotto il sole di riccione. A group of twenty somethings gathers in riccione, which is on the adriatic side of italy. Near san marino, or rimini. It's a beautiful beach resort. Dancing, nightclubs. Volleyball competition. Even the sardine festival. Each person or couple is working thru their own issues... one even has his mother along. Where will it all end? It's a bit like the film porky's, but in italy. But the translation from italian to english is much better than the old days. Netflix is doing much better translating films for other countries now. Even when the film is just okay. Gets pretty silly near the end. Directed by niccolò celaia and antonio usbergo. There's also a sequel.. it's about the same as this one.

"Sotto il sole di Riccione" is a sun-kissed, feel-good summer film that whisks one into a reverie of nostalgia-those picturesque Italian seaside settings and the overall youthful energy. It has an ensemble cast, so be prepared for a refreshing charm as it captures the spirit of a group of friends meandering through love and friendship on a summer holiday. Despite this, how much the film borrows from familiar tropes in romance and a quite predictable plot line may be off-putting to some viewers who want something more in depth and originally, respectively. While it succeeds in light-hearted entertainment and brilliant visuals, its character development and emotional complexity are shallow and probably leave this film feeling like more of a summer fling than really one of the lasting cinematic impressions.

The movie is better than it looks. The plot is nothing new but it is still funny. Is refreshing and has a nice summer vibe. The scenary is amazing. All in all, well acted, colorful and funny.!
