sigh

Ho hum... To call it boring is an understatement. The plot was not remotely interesting at all. I was surprised with Alessandra's performance. She seemed like a rookie trying to do so much to give life to bland scripts and dull scenes, to give the illusion that she was shining in her craft. No amount of acting and diction can save an atrocious dialoge and lifeless scenes. I found her speech irritating as she sounded like a dude.

Cliche-ish

I tried giving it a chance by watching it for about 36 minutes. What a waste of time! Highly irritating dialogues in very cringy situations, like a teen movie in the 90's but played by adults in their 30's. It's cheesier than a block of asiago. Not cute, not romantic, and definitely not good.

People can relate

Very nice. Excellent Actors. I really like it. The chemistry between Andrea and Papa P is really good. I couldn't move on.

It was fun, but not good.

Things that I liked: the chemistry between the 2 main characters the jokes are funny

BUT

I don't remember one scene where the 2 main characters are separated (in the story, yes, but not in the movie). They are the only real characters, all the other people are just there, they don't serve any real purpose at all. Almost all the scenes look and feel the same. The story wasn't even worth the 1 hr. This entire movie could have been better off as a short film.

Oh yeah... the star thing was cheesy and cliche.

Trivia
It marks Alessandra De Rossi's directorial debut, with the multi-awarded actress drawing inspiration from Barbra Streisand's "The Mirror Has Two Faces". "My Amanda" quickly became one of the most-watched films on Netflix; however, it received mixed reviews, mostly negative. Critics found the narrative unrealistic, with many believing that Pascual and De Rossi were too old to convincingly portray the best-friend dynamic typically seen in teen movies. Some suggested that De Rossi should focus on acting rather than pursuing a directing career. However, others praised the performances and the overall cinematography, expressing a desire to see more collaboration between De Rossi and Pascual.
