    Irritating detailing

    Spoilt by silly details.. who arrives in an Alaskan town as the new doctor in a mini dress and stiletto heels, with no coat?! Irritating lack of context which distracted from the storyline.

    Clumsy and unbalanced

    7.0 stars.

    'Love Alaska' presents a unique blend of emotions, combining elements of sadness, hope, anger, and depression, with a touch of failed humor. The narrative follows a group of tourists at a dating retreat in a remote Alaskan town, where individuals from around the world converge to find love. Amidst the comedic moments, there are glimpses of deeper issues as the protagonist, grappling with PTSD, pushes away help and seeks solace in solitude, haunted by feelings of disappointment and avoidance of emotional entanglements.

    The lead female character, returning to her hometown after years away, inherits a medical practice following her uncle's passing. As the past relationship between the two leads resurfaces after a 15-year hiatus, the film delves into their personal struggles and strained dynamics. Despite some awkward and tense moments, the movie falls short in striking a necessary balance between military veterans' challenges and normal life.

    While the film's attempt at humor may feel mistimed, it serves to prevent the narrative from becoming overly bleak, making it somewhat more engaging for viewers. Overall, 'Love Alaska' struggles to deliver the emotional weight required to fully convey the complexities of its characters' struggles.

    Inspiring

    We all struggle to overcome grief / step forward in life so this all-age-friendly movie is appropriate for everyone, whether you like coupledom or enjoy being single.

    Victor does an amazing job portraying a veteran!

    I enjoyed this movie from the first few minutes of viewing.. it was not the same old plot we see in so many T. V. movies... enjoyed all the actors in their roles... especially Victor Zinck jr.. his portrayal of a Veteran dealing with PTSD was some of the best acting I have seen anywhere in YEARS! .. and actually the chemistry between he and Sarah was amazing.. This is one you're not going to want to miss!!

    Poor Production Details

    The production details also bothered me, distracting from the action. The costume designer doesn't know you need a coat in Alaska because it's cold? Or that most people clean out a long-closed office in jeans & a sweatshirt or sweater (it's Alaska!). The finished clinic doesn't look like any Ive ever seen - apothecary bottles in the waiting room? All the shelving was pretty but they made me wonder if the clinic was also the pharmacy, not a waiting room. I did like the two lead actors but thought it funny that a big deal was made over his red hair! The PTSD issue was a nice plot addition.
