L'Amour en touriste

I hadn't seen anything with Rachael Leigh Cook in a while. When she was younger she was cute. Now, today, she is beautiful. She was perfect for this role. Every actor in this movie is great, I couldn't find a single person I'd replace. And, for me, that says a lot as I'm as critical as they come when it comes to movies.

This movie is a Romcom at it's best. It's not the pure Hallmark formula that has been so consistent, but I think it may be better.

The scenery in this it absolutely beautiful. I knew Vietnam was pretty but had no idea it was this gorgeous!

There's beautiful scenery, comedy, romance, a few quirky people, and even a little intrigue.

I'll be watching this again, soon.

Okay, I do enjoy a Rom-Com now and then, decided to watch this because I needed something "easy" tonight, so I chose something that wasn't in my saved LIST. Yes, its a predictable rom-com but I typically liked the whole "start new...find a new you" after something negative in one's life. I expected giving a rating of 5-6 but I rated higher because the scenery (and some authentic music). I've visited before and now will need to go back...maybe see more authentic Vietnam, especially since I've already seen most of the touristy spots. I may go on their New Year to experience their traditions. My experience was mainly beach scene so next time I will spend more time in the city and countryside. There is a calm to this country, the people and with everything going on in the world I for one, could use some of that.

This is a very heartwarming movie about love and travelling. I really loved that Netflix finally used vietnamese (or other nation) as a lead male actor. It is a nice overview about asian culture and how they respect traditions and positive thinking. Even it's a little too coloured. (Obviously it is an american Netflix film). Also Rachel Leigh Cook is great in this film and her act and character is very motivating. I would love to see more films like that which are educating the viewers about different cultures. If you need a lighty but warm movie for your evening even with your spouse or bae i would recommend this.

As a Vietnamese, who is living abroad, this movie makes me feel extremely home sick, since I have not been in Vietnam for a very very long time. All of the scenery in the movie is so beautiful and I am glad that they showed it to the world.

But the story needs to be more structured and built up more, in order to convince the audience that the romance in the movie is real. And I also think, it would be better, that the story of the other characters should be mentioned more, so it would make with the main story pop up more. And also don't make it too easy to guess what will happen.

But yes, this one is really relaxing to watch, when you need something soothing and easy.

Definitely would recommend it and if you could, then please visit Vietnam to see the experience.

Rachel Leigh Cook can't act. The rest of the cast neither. The actual story was quite thin and the two main character had zero chemistry but somehow it is still a charming little film. In a grey, rainy afternoon this movie is perfect to bring some colour in your life. And I suspect it was made by a travel agency, as it makes me want to visit Vietnam.

I gave it 6 star because of the scenery and the cultural aspects that were shown. I loved the colours.

As a rom-com, meh, nothing special, although the male lead looks quite handsome indeed but I couldn't see any love happening, I couldn't see the female lead changing, but it probably comes with the lack of the acting skills from the whole cast.

Overall, it is still an okay movie, nice 90 minutes, but not something I'd watch again.
