I was excited at first to watch this movie as I am a fan of Tatiana Ali, but this one sucked. I personally don't like the films that include "this is what we do is this country, blah blah blah, now lets over explain every single thing about the traditions". And this happened atleast 4-5 times throughout the film.
As for the acting, the guy that played the fiancé of her friend was horrible at first, then he wasn't too bad after. I don't see why they brought in the other couple later on, they added nothing to the movie, and one of them, his hair was too distracting.
What really got me was the point when the male lead's character got mad at Tatiana's character for such a foolish reason. She made her decision before they ever thought of rekindling anything, and he uses it against her? And then she's gonna beg and plead and try and reason with him?? That's what made me wanna change the channel, but since I was 3/4 through the movie I just tolerated the rest.
Bad script and not so good acting is what this movie's about. Don't waste your time.

He was the only reason to watch this movie. The script was ok, but the acting from everyone else was horrible!
Absolutely ZERO chemistry between the two leads, and don't get me started on the awkward supposed "chemistry " between him and the other girl.
Execution of lines from the other actors was on the same level of my grade 9 high school play.
The facial expressions of the female lead was way too distracting. Constantly looking confused, spaced out, frustrated and bewildered all at once. The scene when her and Marshall almost kissed made me laugh out loud. She looked absolutely frightened and he looked like when you're about to bump into a stranger on a sidewalk and you are trying to move out of each other's way!
I kept it on in the background as it was ok to listen too, but to sit and watch this mess, absolutely not!

In the beginning it wasn't too bad. The characters seemed interesting, and I love the actress that plays the older staff member.
However the last 30 minutes of the movie made absolutely NO sense to me! The entire time Mena Massud's character was pining after the female lead, all while she pays him no mind because she is trying to sell the hotel, then out of nowhere she has feelings for him??
I got the impression that the housekeeper secretly admired the other chef, at least that's the way it came across, so when he's on one knee proposing, it made absolutely NO sense!
The only characters that has some sort of buildup to their coupling was the older couple and the guy that lost his dog.
I went from wanting to keep this one saved in my PVR to wanting it to be over so I could delete it! Just so silly!
