Temptation Under the Sun

I thought that this movie had a weak plot. Also, the actors and actresses were not very good. In fact, the acting was terrible. Usually, I like most of the Lifetime movies,but this one get thumbs down for me.

Loved it. Watched it three times. Main characters had great chemistry. Loved the scenery and plot. I'm a big Lifetime fan so there are not too many movies I miss which is intentional. Male leader was great casting. "We're gonna need a little more rope."

Treat this movie as a comedy, and i promise you'll have a good idea. It has so many moments that I think the movie intends for you to take seriously, but are really just laughable. Like, it's downright ridiculous. But that's part of the fun of it.

This movie also tries really hard to be sexy, but it's not. Again, if you treat it like a comedy, you'll enjoy those moments. Just maybe don't watch it with your parents (or if you're an adult, with your kids). Cause that could get awkward.

Anyway, there's not much more to say about this movie, but I still have this character count to meet... I liked it so yeah.

I gave the 2 stars for the lead actress only because she acts fairly well. However no Detroit accent but she's a cop from Detroit PD. The rest of the actors, especially the lead actor struggled to pull off their character. I think he was cast because he has impeccable abs. Big 10/10 for that part!

Unfortunately the movie was cringier than the usual lifetime movies. In fact, it felt more like a Hallmark movie - especially when they were deserted on an island. I guess there's no reason to expect typical LMN dangerous scenes at a lake house! They're already on an island.

Full disclosure, I fast forwarded much of it so possibly the parts of the show were better during those scenes.

Reign in expectations, it's a Lifetime made for TV movie. In that context it's a pretty decent watch. Attractive cast, doing their best with the script. The striptease thing was actually pretty good I thought!

Have sadly seen a lot worse.
