Find Me Falling - Un'isola dove innamorarsi

Harry Connick Jnr we love you and so good to see you back in movies!

Such a beautiful setting,movie and music focussing on friendship,family values and lost love with a wonderful cast of local Greek actors.

Also refreshing seeing an age appropriate Gen X relationship for once. For me it was a cross between a Mamma Mia type storyline with dominant female characters and yet also a Crazy Heart type feeling without the country and western vibe. I wish more movies like this were produced providing such a non Hollywood vibe supporting local indépendant actors filmed on location in such a beautiful part of the world. More like this please 😊

Forget about all the other aspects of this movie that you may, or may not, like. The star of this movie is Cyprus, the beautiful Greek island invaded by and partitioned by the Turkish government in the 1970's. Its landscapes, culture, music, and actors are worth the price of admission here. The story of Harry Connick Jr's return to the island, as an aging American rock star, is very enjoyable. I don't love Connick's acting in this one. His attempts to be edgy are not really suited to him, but he is still a likable presence. The story is a Rom-com, with more emphasis on the Romance than the Comedy. It is enjoyable and I liked it.

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 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.

Cyprus is a perfect backdrop to a story about love, hope, family and empathy. With Harry Connick as the lead we ease into a story of lost love and new friends with beautiful music. What's not to like. Wish the character development was a little deeper but this one was refreshing and light. I especially appreciated the way all the women shared supportive energy. The way all the characters filled out the story made a sure comedy win. I remember meeting a group of guys from Cyprus who ran a fish shack in London. It was the most inviting little place with charm and humor. Even though they were just selling fish and chip they made you want to stay all night and just talk. This film expresses the hospitality of Cyprus. Just hang out and talk.
