Sotto il sole dell'amore

Of course I had not heard about this 2023 romantic TV movie from writer Katie Kerr and director Brittany Underwood prior to stumbling upon it by random chance here in 2024. And with it being a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to sit down and give the movie a fair chance, despite it being a romantic movie. Yeah, the romance genre is generally not a genre of movies that I watch a lot of.

Well, the storyline was actually every bit as generic and predictable as I was expecting. It was one of those sappy storylines where once you've seen one romantic movie, then you have essentially seen them all. But I am sure that there is an audience out there for these types of sappy-romantic movies. Now, I am not saying that it was a bad storyline or script, but it was rather generic. Truth be told, though, I was actually adequately entertained throughout the course of the movie.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, but I will say that they had some talented actors and actresses on the cast list.

If you enjoy sappy romance movies, then you will definitely also enjoy "Lean Into Love" (aka "Love On Retreat") from director Brittany Underwood.

My rating of the movie lands on a five out of ten stars.
