Idylle sur une île

I really don't understand why people watch these movies knowing that they wouldn't like it when it really wasn't that bad. Then they give it a low rating. If you don't like movies like this- don't watch them. The first thing that came to my mind was that it was something you would see on the Hallmark Channel and not Netflix.

I don't understand why anyone would watch a Romance movie knowing they aren't going to like it, or be overly critical. The low ratings come from them. I didn't mind this movie at all. It's not meant to be a great movie, but light entertainment. Not sure what the big deal with the accent was. Just watch it for its entertainment factor.

It seemed like the director was obsessed with impeccably ironed clothing - even when the leads were meant to be in "casual" beach gear, they looked like they were wearing sparkly new clothes. In one scene, the lead actor was wiping his boat clean in perfect, neatly pressed shirt, matching shorts and a crisp white T-shirt on. Not a speck of dirt. Just like an Omo ad.

Dreadful, predictable script.

Thank goodness for the beautiful coastline though.

The scenery makes this film worth watching with finger on fast forward button - advance to the underwater sceneries which are stunning. Great cinematography. Forget the rest.

...but that's the only thing good about this film. The plot is contrived (Hallmark can do better) and the acting is atrocious. Couldn't get past the first 30 minutes...but now I really want to vacation in Australia.

Ever watch a movie that was so, so bad that you just watched it till the end? Well this is THAT kind of movie. What a joke!

First of all the acting was terrible. The main 2 actors were too old to be playing this 'cute' type of characters that made the story line unreal.

The best part of the movie was the scenery which was stunning, but was ruined by the orange filters that made all actors look orange.

And the most entertainment you will get out of this movie is actually reading the reviews. This was a TERRIBLE movie.... YUCK!
