All Roads Lead to Rome

"A woman takes what she wants, when she wants it." Maggie (Parker) is starting to lose touch with her daughter Summer (Day). In an effort to reconnect they take a trip to Italy. Maggie sees this as a bonding experience but Summer sees it as punishment and is worried about her boyfriend who she left. When Maggie reconnects with a former love it only enforces Summer's desire to return home and she takes a car, and a grandma, and will stop at nothing to fly home. Maggie will stop at nothing to stop her. This is really not that bad of a movie. Generic and formulaic but still worth seeing and I actually enjoyed watching this. The movie is pretty predictable but it is a romantic comedy so that is to be expected. In terms of chick-flicks I have seen worse and while this is nothing super outstanding it was better than I was expecting and I laughed quite a bit. Overall, nothing original or unexpected but still worth your time. Much better than I was expecting. I give this a B.

I'm not sure much effort went into this. The characters are unlovable and annoying, the plot is weak and 50% of the dialogue is un-subtitled Italian. (I understand we don't have to know what is always being said, but it's such a pointless movie that it could be argued nobody needed a speaking part!)

Hard to believe the script made it to production. Silly and implausible. Two stars because it's good to see Claudia Cardinale on screen again.

This is handleable to watch when you're in the mood to half-watch something. I watched it half whilst working and still followed it, without subtitles when there's odd conversations in Italian - it's that empty and predictable. I love SJP so I am really disappointed in this. Every bit was predictable, I guessed the relations, the start, middle and outcome. The soundtrack is appalling. It's actually the first thing that put me off the film. And I can't believe that I heard the girl's tattoos being described and defended, in 2016! I'm reviewing it with about 10 minutes left - and I know how it's going to end. Don't bother until it comes on TV and you're hung over or sick and worried about falling asleep in front of the box - because you won't miss anything.

I was fast forwarding within 2 minutes of the film start and when I saw the car they picked up at the airport I knew I wouldn't make it to the end.no real chemistry between cast very poor script, as a Rom com I felt it was worse than a hallmark Xmas special.at least my 85 year old mother was delighted that she had aged better than Claudia Cardinale so extra point for that.
