El libro del amor

A lot of reviews are chastising this film for not being original. There are so many films being made these days, original is hard to come by. What matters is how a story is told and the characters. I loved how this story was told and I loved the characters. It was interesting seeing both characters unfold. The Mexican setting was charming and lovely. The supporting characters provided refreshing humor. I was entertained from start to finish.

An interesting premise that builds to a predictable climax and provokes a few laughs and a tender tear along the way. Sam Claflin does ok but Verónica is a delight who steals every scene she is in, even with her back to the camera. I look forward to seeing her again.

Very simple and common argument in Rom Coms but it has an interesting latin flavor that mixed with the seriousness of the English backdrop makes for a funny story all around. Get past the common places and enjoy it. Don't take it too seriously.

It's the CUTEST idea, the acting was okay, as written, I'm sure. But that's where the problem is, there's no chemistry really written in the movie and their attraction comes out of nowhere really, even though I do like them. It needs better writing.

I just can't get over this really adorable idea not being written to its fullest.

Love the British and Mexican agents. Great personality!!

"Book of Love" is a Comedy - Romance movie in which we watch a writer traveling to Mexico in order to promote even more his book after becoming a best seller there. Everything changes on his book tour since some important information reveal.

I enjoyed this movie because it had a very simple and despite that it was predictable it had a nice plot. The combination of comedy and romance was good but also predictable at many moments. The interpretations of both Sam Claflin who played as Henry Copper and Verónica Echegui who played as Maria Rodríguez were good and their combination worked very well. The differences of the two characters created a nice, funny atmosphere that followed them through the whole duration of the movie. To sum up, I have to say that "Book of Love" is a good movie to spend your time with but do not expect much or something different than all the other romantic movies.
