Alex & Eve

The premise had potential but falls flat in numerous areas: 1. Characters felt like stereotyped cardboard cut outs. At times I could almost hear an Aussie accent coming out of the Greek dad who was perhaps putting on a stereotypical Greek accent 2. The 'love' between Alex & Eve was not believable. How did they get from meeting at a bar to deciding they wanted to spend their lives together?

3. The stereotypes of the 2 cultures were surface level and did not reveal any deeper truths about the families/cultures/religion. It was a missed opportunity to break stereotypes and help viewers from other cultures and religious backgrounds to understand the values and struggles of these 2 particular groups.

Take time to allow this feature to develop it's characters and you will become enthusiastic about this happy tale of conflicting cultures in modern day Sydney Australia. Once you have done this you will find yourself rooting for the two main characters of this piece.

The leads are very good in their portrayals of young first generation Australians from different religious backgrounds. Both have adjusted to their lives in modern Australian society whilst respecting their families cultures. This is at opposites to their families who may remain closer to the cultures of the 'old countries '. I say 'may' as their are a few surprises in this regard.

Supporting cast are also very good. Their faces are well known to Australian viewers from their extensive portfolio's in many many local productions of the past decades.

No one character steals this movie. No matter how large or small the character may be, each contributes to the overall success of this tale of 'Love conquers All in the End '.

The camera makes good use of light and openness, confined and darkened spaces, to help create the prevailing mood at various times during the production.

The director has brought out splendid performances from all characters.

Watch this movie through and you will be left with a good feeling inside. In fact, you'll want to see it again. I thoroughly recommend this feature to all.

Its an entertaining movie for an afternoon at home, you get a fair bit of laughs, enjoy the multi cultural aspects, a good dose of romance, beautiful catchy songs and good chemistry between the 2 leads. Yes, you most probably have seen the plot before in many inter-racial/religion romance movies but this movie still delivers on an entertainment level.

Quite enjoyed it - nice characters, clichée, but very relatable.

The ones that gave bad reviews are fundamentlust, coz she should have married as her family whishes.

This has got to be the most predictable stupid movie. The characters are all complete morons. The characters are so unlikeable, especially the supporting characters. The only bright spot are the few scenes with the students.

This movie really makes you realize how great Hallmark movies really are. They may be dumb, but at least they are enjoyable.
