The Charm of Love

Good as a background movie where you don't have to actually pay attention.

But seriously though, she goes hiking on heels? Are you all out of your mind? 😅

The lead actors are some of the most annoying I've seen & the storyline is similar to Pearl in Paradise which has far more credible actors/acting. The only redeeming feature of this film is the stunning location.

Must find a lovers stone or the museum closes; how lame. Girl meets bed n breakfast employee, very predictable. He is with island festival committee, who must save the festival. The myth of the lovers stone will bring in tourists. Extras in the movie make up for bad tourists. Girl gets lost in jungle...and is rescued. Senario--girl helps boy with festival, boy helps girl find stone and the same old ending as all other "hallmark" type movie But the dialog is just bad.

It was cute, but so incredibly unrealistic.

Those damn heeled boots she wore to go hiking in?!! I mean, what the hell!? ANY experienced hiker (and archaeologist) would know never to use that kind of footwear! And when they were digging in the sand, with a pickaxe!? Honestly, those might have been little things, but I found them so annoying to the point of hilarity.

I managed to make it to the end, which is something. A one-time watch if you can make it through.

I tried to get onboard with this but within the first 5 mins the lead actress had already manhandled a incredibly badly made arts and crafts "artefact" like a child from there it just got worse and worse... i know its supposed to be romantic and we all need to suspend belief and invest in the journey etc but when she started stomping through a tropical garden (which I'm assuming was supposed to replicate a wildly overgrown jungle) as an unconvincing female Indiana Jones in.... wait for it.... Hot pants and heeled platform lace up boots i could no longer bear to watch.

Also the 2 lead actors had zero chemistry so even that couldn't bring it back round for me.
