Reviews

Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
GetPapa Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
