Gabriel's Rapture: Part One

I loved the first three movies, and this one was all right, but honestly the farther into the story you get, the more annoying Julia's character gets. Have to admit I haven't read the books, but whiny female characters are definitely not for me, and she only gets whinier as time goes on. I won't add spoilers, but she's immature, naive, and her expectations on Gabriel are unrealistic. I've also never seen a single grad student behave like her. Maybe a freshman. Gabriel is seriously sexy though, so that partially makes up for the annoying female lead.

A beautifully shot first film in the Gabriels Rapture story. The chemistry between Giulio Berruti and Melanie Zanetti is wonderful. All in all a pleasure to watch. Definitely does justice to the novel.

The first movie in the series is better, but that isn't saying much. The high scoring, favorable reviews for this are fake. This is basically the same movie as the first one but watered down a bit. The first was more convincing in portraying the forbidden love between professor and student. This movie plays on the same theme but skips more of the drama and gets more into the sexual tension and romance. It's an embellished female fantasy of having a handsome, wealthy suitor who lavishes attention and fine dining, etc. without having sexual demands in return. There is a LOT of suck face going on, and it gets tiresome after a while. The movie does capture some of the same mood as the first one, so if you particularly liked the first one you might like this. But it mostly just plays like a bad harlequin romance novel.

Gabriel's rapture is such a beautiful continuation of Gabriel's inferno. Can't wait to watch episode 2!!!!!!The main characters are very comfortable with each other now and this makes their love story look more real. Keep up the good work as we follow your journey to find everlasting love!!!

How honored are we as fans that Tosca Musk has made the Gabriel Inferno, Rapture and soon to be Redemption films? We would never get such a true and accurate reflection of these books if it wasn't for Passionflix. I absolutely cannot wait for part ll and lll!!!
