Bienvenue à Monte Carlo

Monte Carlo is a sweet romantic comedy in the same vain as The Lizzie McGuire Movie, the story is about a small town gal from Texas, her best friend and her uptight sister who all travel to Paris for a week, only to get separated from their tour group, they take refuge in the nearest hotel and one of the gals is mistaken for a wealthy British heiress and that's when the story takes off. Cue lots of awkward situations and a cute love story and there you have it.

Selena Gomez is quite nice to watch, as is Miss Meester and Katie Cassidy, all three girls have their own storyline throughout the film and each get their chance to shine. Full props to Selena for being entirely convincing as a snooty British snob, she nailed it. The one thing I didn't get was everyone in the movie from Texas has a Texan accent except Selena, I don't know if this was a deliberate mistake or just plain laziness, but for me it was the only thing that bothered me.

The movie is quite girly, not that that's a bad thing, that's the target audience, but for me it was still easy to watch and enjoyable enough. Give it a go, its not a classic teen film but hey, it's nice enough for a movie night with the girls. :)

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 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.

Disregard the bad rating and reviews for this movie. It's a great film for the whole family and for all ages. There really isn't anything to complain about in the whole film. There's a few parts that actually show/teach good character of a person. It's funny, fun, sweet, innocent, and just a good film!

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.
