Four to Dinner

I am genuinely surprised from this movie.

From the trailer, I wasn't expecting it to turn out the way it did in terms of developing the story, it may look confusing but I think that the beauty of this movies lies in between this confusion.

It does not give you any certainty, it gives you a range of possibilities, each one of them as valid as the other. Prepare yourself to change your mind about soulmates, or to have your opinion confirmed.

It's an entertaining film that explores the idea of soul mate, the one that completes us. The film argues that there is no perfect match, a match made in heaven. It's how a couple (or if you are so inclined, polyamory) works on the relationship from day 1.

The movie shows this by looking at possible scenarios or alternative realities between couples as they navigate the ups and downs of commitment.

Who end up as durable couples? As the story suggests, which makes sense, your guess is as good as mine.

The actors playing Gulia, Chiara, Matteo and Dario entertain us as they drive home the point. The situations they are in do happen in real life. They are able to portray their roles convincingly.

I agree with some other reviews that it is a big confusing with the constant couple switching and that part could've been done better, but nevertheless it was very enjoyable and innovative movie, dialogues were very relatable and the final message is so spot on in my opinion!

Surely there was someway to make this a little bit less confusing. Love the characters. Cinematography could have been better, direction was somewhat lacking. It's a good idea but I think it was almost a failure.

I like how it explores the concept of finding an one instead of the one. And how it demonstrates how much work goes into nurturing a relationship and making it work. Only flaw is that it is sometimes difficult to distinguish which reality/storyline we are in, and who's with who at what time point. But overall, I enjoyed it and would recommend.
