Sous le soleil de Riccione

This is an exemplary teen summer movie. Appealing characters, boy meets girl, boy loses girl, bog gets girl. And it takes place at the Italian beach. It really can't be better. I've watched it twice and will watch it again.

"Sotto il sole di Riccione" is a sun-kissed, feel-good summer film that whisks one into a reverie of nostalgia-those picturesque Italian seaside settings and the overall youthful energy. It has an ensemble cast, so be prepared for a refreshing charm as it captures the spirit of a group of friends meandering through love and friendship on a summer holiday. Despite this, how much the film borrows from familiar tropes in romance and a quite predictable plot line may be off-putting to some viewers who want something more in depth and originally, respectively. While it succeeds in light-hearted entertainment and brilliant visuals, its character development and emotional complexity are shallow and probably leave this film feeling like more of a summer fling than really one of the lasting cinematic impressions.

Nothing is new in this Italian sunny, charming teens in love comedy. But the actors, the scenarios and the lively narrative make it a refreshing gem, a must see Summer flick. Following his heart, a shy boy spends his Vacation at the Riccione's beach, trying to seduce his long time crush. This premise is only the beginning of many love affairs, discoveries and re-starts. There's a blind kid character who steals the scene as he becomes involved with a clueless girl. Well acted, colorful, funny, timely.

The plot of the movie is neither original nor interesting. Another sexist italian movie whose (I hope little) success is essentially based on girls' beauty. The woman is nothing but an object of men's desire. Another wasted opportunity. Netflix should cancel this movie from their platform.

An Italian romantic comedy. Put together various love stories of young adults that vary from vacation to a beach. Do you remember how "Roma with love" was linking the stories? Well this is exactly the same but without the script by Woddy Allen. Entertaining Quality. Predictable like all of its kind. It does not offer something that we have not seen before. Nice Sunday. Between the stories it brings one of a blind boy and that makes it slightly relevant.
