Avis à la une
John Allman (Harry Connick Jr.) is an aged one-hit rocker. His latest album flopped. He moves into his newly purchased house on Cyprus. Unbeknownst to him, it's on top of a cliff where many people go to commit suicide. He befriends local sassy singer Melina (Ali Fumiko Whitney). He reconnects with old flame Sia (Agni Scott) who is the subject of his one big hit.
Harry is good at depressed while being slightly funny. I always like Harry even in bad movies. In this one, I like all the other characters as well. I really like that Melina sees him as ancient. I did worry about Hollywood doing Hollywood things until it becomes obvious who she is. There is a big confrontation and that's really the high point of the movie. The movie runs out of drama. It really needs one more issue to top off the drama. All in all, I like the characters. The awkward issues resolve themselves and it's an enjoyable watch.

This is more of a Family movie than a Romance.. and as you could expect, it resparks more than old relationships. The script is quite simple and straightforward (and rather cheesy at times), but it has a good and satisfactory conclusion! It does feel like it is everything they wanted to make, even if it could feel like it falls short from greatness. But it is one of those films that don't have to wow the viewer, as long as it delivers a consistently good story with decent execution.
Saw it in non-English (songs in original voices), but did not deter me from finding the cast to be likeable enough to enjoy it for what it is.

Korea remains in first place, continuously turning out scripts that are world-class, and heavily nuanced. Canada holds its place at the bottom of the heap, offering the least complicated stories in the category. The cotton candy of rom-coms. And, after this film, Cyprus makes a grand entrance onto our Leader Board, with FIND ME FALLING 2024, a gentle but engaging tale that never disappoints in terms of either story or scenary. An unintended sub-arc here is how men age. Connick sounds the young man from days of yore, but he looks different, and his energy is different too. Luckily, the newer (older) Connick is perfect for this part. Contrast Harry to Bob Joyce, for example, who, after an even longer absence from the public eye, has kept his hairline, his twinkle, and his unique lower register.

Man, this movie just has heart.
Probably not one for the Academy Awards but if I base my measurement on how much this movie could move my heart and lift my soul, then it was one of the best things I've seen in a while.
Sure, I'm a guy and as I'm in my thirties, this story seems a bit above by life experience. But I mean, I get it. It just speaks volumes about life, love and the human connection.
I wonder how something like this even gets made these days. Or are some big wigs awakening and getting tired of the same old same old Hollywood nonsense as well?
If you love a glass of wine and ponder about some mysteries of life and aren't afraid to connect with your soul, then this movie might be a good watch.
Gotta love the laugh out love moments as well. They are as sweet as they are bitter. The best kind, with lots of heart.
PS. If everything you watch must make sense, don't bother. Watch this one with your heart open.

This fit for me on a lazy Sunday night. A romance, not unlike a Lifetime romance, only with a better caliber of acting. It was predictable and any twist in the action was easily figured out way before it happens. There's something to be said about this kind of watch though. It's not Sound of Music or Gone With the Wind, but it does have its place. It's for a time when you don't have to think too much, nor do you want to. It's just to enjoy a sweet second chance romance with a good cast from courtship to happily ever after. There is music involved too. Trigger warning of the subject of suicide as a kind of back story. No part of the cast dies or anything. Just be aware.
