Love Academy

I watched this movie as I like what I read from its synopsis. But what the synopsis never tells is how the movie's end result would be like.

The movie had potential, but acting by some of the main characters were wooden at best. The worst by far is by the main male lead. He came across trying too hard to play the part, and trying to look cool, which he didn't accomplished in my opinion. The rest did a good job.

The editing could have been a little better. It just lacked some atmosphere in some areas, and there were pockets moments which I believe were meant to be more intimate but came across being boring instead.

VERDICT: It's not that terrible a movie. If you can ignore the male lead's acting efforts and it's a nice feel-good movie. Perfect for these times.

A safe folding-laundry movie to have on during the day. But I use captions for everything and they were horrible "If you want to see a great view, you should head on up to the rooftop" read "if you want to see a great view, you don't have to do." Really frustrating.

A sweet film. Wonderful performances from the cast all round. Great chemistry with the leads who played Alice and Christian. A real feel good movie. But I really came here for the food, I'm a real foodie. It looked delicious!

The acting, directing, and the plot are pretty good, but one thing bothered me so much I couldn't get past it. The chefs never once wore a toque, a cap, or beard covering. It just creeped me out. What is a Christmas chef movie without toques?

Yes it's predictable but nevertheless enjoyable. Good acting, a little different script but most of all a good old fashioned love story without sex, nudity, foul language and no blasphemy! What a joy for a change!
