Ingresso para o Paraíso

I love the actors, loved the location and loved an older romance getting a look in for a change. However, the plot was lazy and it kind of felt like an opportunity was missed, it was only okay when it could have been great. It felt like the actors just sleepwalked through the movie and the script wasted their talents.

Also, what stopped me from enjoying the movie more was the dumbness of the supposedly very intelligent daughter. I mean, what is the rush to marry someone you have known for only 30 days? Maybe she had been binge-watching 30 day fiancé. I get that he's a hunk and it's a paradise island but after a couple of years of picking seaweed even that will get old.

There was great chemistry between George and Julia and it kind of felt like we were cheated out of a proper smooch between them! It is worthwhile for the nostalgia factor but not a classic and probably not even a re-watch.

If you are fed up with all these Netflix comedies lacking of humour having actually push yourself to crack a smile " Ticket to Padise " will definitely make things easier for you.

It was a relief to watch a rom com that had fast paced just to the point dialogues. The staring couple was great. Their long last friendship had them feel comfortable with each other so they had a great connection in front of the cameras. Roberts is one of tbe best actresses ever in a variety of genres but romantic comedies will always have her as their Queen!

So if you are looking for a ticket that gets you a couple of hours of joy and relaxation this movie is the answer. Enjoy!

Ticket to Paradise is a completely bog standard romcom. Not a single creative risk was taken in the making of this film. It is all very safe and predictable.

They cast George Clooney and Julia Roberts and knew that that would be enough to get bums on seats, so they phoned in the rest.

The comedy is all tried and tested stuff. The plot follows the traditional romcom formula, meaning you won't find any surprises here.

This doesn't make it a bad film, its just got a pretty uninspired feel to it, as if it was made by a marketing team.

The result is a charming, sweet, but unremarkable film. If you've ever seen a romcom then you've seen Ticket to Paradise, but it does have its moments.

Ticket to Paradise follows a very familiar formula that has very few surprises in its narrative but that works as a nice reminder as to why this formula works so well when done right, especially in the hands of two perfectly matched screen legends.

George Clooney and Julia Roberts are both great, having worked together many times before their chemistry and comedic timing is instant and extremely strong. Kaitlyn Dever is really good with a warmth makes her sudden relationship feel genuine.

Ol Parker's direction is also really good, the location constantly looks gorgeous and it maintains a solid pace throughout. The music by Lorne Balfe works perfectly for the film's tone, so grand and swoon worthy.

You have to imagine Clooney and Roberts, two people who are good pals in real life, read this script and saw the chance to have a holiday in an exotic location with a buddy, all the while being paid for it. Even when they aren't really trying both are very charismatic, and they aren't really trying here, unfortunately. The film has a promising start, as the bickering between the divorcees is top-notch screwball comedy fare. But once we get to Bali and they unite forces, it all turns dull and formulaic. The young lovers never really seem real and so never appear genuinely under threat, and the attempts to introduce Balinese life and culture is saccharine sweet.

In short, meh.
