Trois mètres au-dessus du ciel

I never review shows. However, I thoroughly enjoyed Summertime because it makes you feel. It makes you want to pack your stuff and visit Italy for a summer. It also makes you relate to the characters regarding themes of loneliness, unrequited love, new found love, and most of all hope. I truly hope there is a Season 2 of this show. It doesn't have a traditional story structure. I was perfectly fine with that because I was invested in the characters and their journeys. Go watch it. You'll be sad when it's over.

Good PG movie, good editing and I liked the music.

I watched the first season while actually living in Italy (but the opposite site of the coast).

Lets start with the positive part. The story is set in a coastal town by the beach which pretty much lives from tourism. Most of the scenes play by the ocean, either the characters work there, walk along the beach, relax or go for a swim. The scenes are dominated by bright vibrant colors. Especially in the second season it looked like the characters were even color coordinated with their cloth to the background. The story overall had the right balance between lightness and drama. Nothing was over dramatized. The second season also plays partly in Spain.

I enjoyed all the characters. I would see this show more as "New Adults" as "Young Adult". Everyone was likeable and believable to me. My favorite character is actually Dario. In the first season things develop kind of slow. I really liked the second season up to episode 6. The show jumped right into action and was much faster paced BUT I didn't like the last 2 episodes. It was too much back and forth. Things were getting too fast and I started to wonder if the writers were running out of ideas and were just adding a ton of kissing scenes to the plot. Especially the main characters were drifting more and more into the background. Summer's relationships with people were also getting a little bit strange and all that sudden the plot involving her was all over the place. It felt like the writers couldn't make up their mind. Dario's story was much better done and I also liked that her little sister Blue got her own spotlight in Season 2. But the last two episodes really left me with an unsatisfied feeling and the cliffhanger didn't make it any better.

This being said I'm looking forward to season 3 and hopefully the writing will turn around again.

At the end it got some flaws but still a fun summer show to watch.

The storyline and the plot is not filled with twists and turns, however it's nice, and addictive. I watched this to improve my Italian skills, I'm a beginner, but I could watch it with Italian sounds and subtitles, and totally understood everyting.

I wasn't sure what to expect from it but I loved it. There is some kind of simplicity in this show that I loved and fell really realistic. Maybe it's because I have some bittersweet feeling about my teenage years and like them grew up on a coastal town. I also love that there is so much room for future seasons to come. The music, the actor and the direction was great. Don't listen to those cold heart bad reviews. And oh please, do take in consideration where it comes from. It's an Italian show, not an American one.
