Amor y gelato

Zero chemistry between the young leads, terrible lead actress, total snooze-fest, very forced. I couldn't get past the first 20 minutes.

An American in Italy is so cliché.

Take off glasses to turn ugly duckling to a swan - check!

Run in to a rich and handsome who is sort of a prick - check!

Run into a not rich warm heart and get tangled in love triangle - check!

People who have flashback and refuse to move on even after 20 years in the name of love - check!

A big mouthed friend who has no life of her own but to support the soggy and confused main lead - check!

A movie where none of the airline costs, airbnb costs, food costs, local expenses cost, luggage limitations, background touristy crowd, miscellaneous regular humanly things dont really apply to the main lead - check!

Finding the people by chance in trains and streets like its a coincidence - double check!!

This is for young ones but it's also for those who were young once. It's light entertainment yet it drives home the point that your mom could be your best friend.

Susanna Skaggs as Lina is completely relatable. One could feel the emotions she's going through as she learns more about her mom and herself. Some scenes might feel cliche but it doesn't mean the film isn't worth your time.

Older people will find this film as enjoyable as they reminisce their young life with all its promise and disappointment.

Rome will always be romantic; and a cultural gem. Watching this film reminds me of a vibrant, pulsating city that I once called home.

Some reviewers on here say it deviated quite a bit from the book. Well, I never read the book, but I enjoyed this film. It's a cute movie about a young girl discovering herself in Rome. I thought the story was a bit predictable, but sometimes that's okay. The acting was pretty good, the music was perfect, and the scenery...well...it's Italy for Pete's sake! What's not to like!

Extremely predictable. Cute, kiddish, romantic somewhat. I felt the Lorenzo thing never properly ended. Atleast a final kiss could have made it better. I sort of want an Italian guy of my own after watching it 😂 Weird acting by all lead characters except maybe the god-mother. The movie would have been so much better if the acting was slightly better.
