I didn't quit watching this movie, but the unrealistic characters - people who don't speak a common used language, an engineer who obviously wasn't prepared for her new task - made me feel dissatisfied about the message, meaning and the incredibility of this film.

It's a little too much of everything and Terneuzen might be in a more rural area, it's only 1,5 hours away from Rotterdam and there still live approx 55.000 people. So, all in all, it's not like she is actually in a really small village where you run into the same people all the time... also they don't live there like in the nineties or so. And how can she live in a very expensive modern apartment in Rotterdam and drive a really old car?

Weg van Jou is exactly what you expect if you've seen anything about the film. Katja Herbers lives in a picturesque high-rise apartment with her boyfriend, and cannot wait for her business trip to Rio de Janiero. However, when the paperwork is finished, it is not Rio she is sent to, but the much less exciting city of Terneuzen, and she must learn to deal with the peculiarities of the locals and the changes within herself. Cliches abound, awkward moments are savored, yet I found Herbers an interesting enough protagonist that I was able to stay engaged with the film. The other characters are all somewhat flat, playing safely to a stereotype, and frequent music and many of the writing and cinematography choices indicate that this film is staying close to a known formula to please the audience who seeks it out. Few risks are taken; this is not an endeavor of artistic sensibility, but of entertainment. But given that, I found that the lowest point at this film does not sink as low as many other modern cheap romantic comedies. So, if you think it's just the same movie you've seen a hundred times, you're probably right, and if that's what you want then you'll be pleased.

The main character has a very average executive job, as does her boyfriend. Yet they live in a million euro apartment. Then she gets a transfer to Terneuzen and she doesn't seem to know where this is. She spends an entire day driving there. In reality it's only an hour and a half.

These facts aside, she is rude and unpleasant to the people in her new town. Very unlikable character. She thinks it's okay to insult people just because they don't match her high horse standard. Bleh.

Doesn't happen often that I quit watching a movie, but this was unwatchable.

Fun Dutch romantic comedy that keeps you watching and smiling. Just enough awkwardness and just enough feels in it.

Saw all the Dutch romantic comedies. This one is the best. Take it from me; I know what I'm talking about.
