Love Is in the Air

I loved the scenery and the story is not too bad. I understand there may be inconsistencies on the technical aspects of the piloting job but I don't think the movie warrants the lowest rating. The acting is ok, the filmography was also on point and the story is the typical adversaries turned into lovers. It's nice enough. It even makes me want to book a trip to Australia when I'm able to save enough for it ;). If you are looking for a nice, light movie, and romantic movies are your thing, this one's nice enough. And the story is fine, as romcoms go. I would like to visit the li actions in which the movie was filmed. Really, gorgeous places.

I don't think we're meant to take this movie seriously. Because it seems that the filmmakers didn't even take it seriously.

The good bits: Stunningly beautiful sceneries; attractive easy on the eye leads; supporting actors' performance.

The no good bits: the script is not very convincing, lacks substance; both female and male leads' unrealistic makeup just doesn't seem truthful to the characters; lead performances are cringy at times; pacing seems a bit off especially towards the end.

Overall it's a very forgettable movie. I think I'll only remember the beautiful blue sea and the unnecessarily long false eyelashes.

Having seen hundreds of romance movies, I feel qualified to comment when I see one that stands out. I liked the central couple and found their chemistry genuine even if it may have been amplified for her because of her limited dating pool and more believable for him because he is looking for passion in his life and is naturally drawn to hers. As far as the other elements needed for success, they are all present: Interesting and humorous supporting characters - check; parents whose actions are affecting the plot - check; and external circumstances that create challenges and are also interesting - check. Surprising bonuses: incredible scenery in a part of the world not often seen in U. S. romance movies and exciting flying sequences. One downside: business factors are not realistic, but who wants to think about work during a romance move.? Give this one a look if you are in the mood for romance.

"Love is in the Air" appears to be a romantic film featuring Delta Goodrem as a seaplane pilot in a cheesy and saccharine love story. The movie seems to rely heavily on clichés and contrived situations, making it a challenging watch for most audiences. The central romance between Dana and William, played by Joshua Sasse, doesn't seem to have much chemistry, and the plot's predictability is a drawback. The film's dialogue and performances also come across as forced at times. While the movie aims for an uplifting experience, it appears to fall short of delivering genuine emotions. Delta Goodrem's performance, while not outstanding, manages to deliver some of the film's corny lines with a straight face. Overall, it seems like a film primarily suited for die-hard fans of the Sydney-born performer rather than a broader audience.

I'm fairly certain nobody involved in "Love is in the Air" intended to make great cinema. Even the title shows a lack of effort (the movie involves airplanes-wink,wink). That being said, this is a formulatic romance with the noble woman business owner at odds with the (initially) rotten corporate tool of a man. Through a series of trials and tribulations, the corporate jerk becomes a decent human being and the pair fall in love. There is the traditional third act drama where the lass discovers the lad's original evil plan and they break up only to reconcile five minutes later. If you threw some tinsel and snow at this production it would easily be a Hallmark Christmas movie. There is absolutely nothing new or original here.

That being said, the scenery is beautifully shot and the acting was not terrible. I feel this movie was intended to be a vehicle for the attractive leading lady who is a well-known singer in Australia (where the film was shot). This is an inoffensive little picture that isn't particularly good or particularly bad. If you're into improbable romantic comedies you could find it enjoyable.
