Monte Carlo

I almost didn't watch the movie because I saw the reviews of others here on IMDb. In the end I decided to try it anyway and was pleasantly surprised. Sure, the story has been done before, and in the end it may not be the most realistic, but that's not why you should want to watch this movie anyway. It's a happy, feel-good movie about following your dreams that, when you finish watching it, leaves you with a smile on your face. I recommend this to anyone with a bit of extra time who just wants to watch a relaxing, cheerful movie like me (a 21 year old girl XD) or for anyone who wants a nice, clean movie to watch for or with their children. Enjoy!

This film is the definition of adolescent stupidity because it contains everything that is wrong in a film for teenagers, with a ridiculous and very banal plot, but it is entertaining and also very entertaining and this is terrible because the film is awful and I recognize it, it has absolutely no positive aspect since even the acting is more like a TV series where no one wanted to commit themselves than a film but because of the very tight pace the film manages not to get bored and for this in my opinion it even deserves a very narrow sufficiency which identifies it among those horrible film but not really to throw away because it still manages terribly in the arduous task of entertaining the viewer.

14-year-old Raven Devanney thoroughly enjoyed Monte Carlo. Here's her review:

Monte Carlo is an awesome movie for girl's night. Selena Gomez, Katie Cassidy, and Leighton Meester's performances are absolutely fantastic! I really enjoy this movie; it is funny, romantic and extremely entertaining. One thing I find a bit disappointing is that the story line is pretty predictable; however it is made up for by the wonderful acting. The cinematography is excellent and vivid. It truly shows off the beauty of Italy and Monte Carlo. My favorite character is Grace played by Selena Gomez. Grace is so determined to have a great time in Italy and make sure her friends are having a blast. She stays cool and calm even when life takes an unexpected turn and I admire that about her. My favorite scene when Cordelia Winthrop Scott, Grace's look-alike, comes to the Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo and Grace and her friends have to scramble around trying to make her hotel room look perfect again so they don't get caught. This scene is very funny and enjoyable. I recommend Monte Carlo for ages 10 and up because there aren't any sexual scenes or inappropriate language, but younger kids may not enjoy the story of young adults traveling to Italy. I give Monte Carlo 4 out of 5 stars because it's a great film for you and your friends! Video review here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ-q6ZKY7zU

Another movie seen in random from Netflix yesterday starring Selena Gomez in double role and a few more . Less unknown to me. A typical romcom filmed in Paris showing a few f the most known moments of the city. I was there on late 80s.

The movie is slightly funny. The fist funny scene was driving the group members inside the city at a high speed making finally the 3 friends lose the bus when they were in the Eiffel tower Also a simple plot inside the city and how they found themselves living for short time in Monte Carlo Fancy yourself Grace touring with her stepsister Megi and her best friend Emma leaving USA for a vacation trip in Paris and by good chance taking the position of her twin Grace and finally all of them living good adventure and life in Monte Carlo . In the next Friday Grace's twin coming the city to show a extremely expensive necklace finding it was lost... and now please see the movie . The best point was in the end !

Relatively fast paced a poor comedy with limited funny cases light hearted story bot good to watch with pop corn!

6/1- joyful story.

This movie should have been good I was so looking forward to it. They had an attractive cast and beautiful locations. How could they go wrong? It's pretty bad. The premise is familiar but still usually works - 3 American girls go to Europe and fall into mischief and romance. The problem is there is very little romance and very little humor. The screenplay is badly written without amusing situations or a build up of romance. The dialog is not witty or charming. Hardly any laughs. The directing is bad and choppy. Scenes just seem to jump from one to another abruptly. Leighton Meester is a good actress on Gossip Girl but here she seems to have just limited expressions. Katie Cassidy is slightly miscast a bit too together looking to be what she plays. The casting is strange. Selena Gomez looking like a British heiress? Not only does she not look the part her accent and acting in her 2 characters are not different enough. The male leads Cory Monteith who is a bit of a limited actor usually and Pierre Boulanger don't have much to work with. Only saving grace the locations and scenery are spectacular and it has a very on location feel. Overall: See if it you are a die hard fan of one or more of them but prepared to be disappointed.
