Loved it
12 May 2019
I disagree with many of the reviews here. 1. This is literally a tale as old as time. See Sabrina, Pride and Prejudice, Cinderella to name a few. 2. The flaunting of the money and the Christian scenes were a point of irony through juxtapositions. 3. New money of any culture is like this. I see this all of the time where I live and one round on Instagram will show you this wasteful behavior is cross cultural boundaries. Those ridiculous scenes were to lead the viewers to the conclusion that the money was not just an obstacle, but an almost insurmountable one. She might as well been from Mars with how different her life was. Now that I said my piece, I loved the music choices, the costuming, and Dr. Ken was hilarious as always! Was it full of stereotypes and cultural cliches... yes. Most movies are. Looking past that to the story line: Boy meets girl. They fall in love. Oh no there's an obstacle to break them up. They must now choose to fight for love or lose it forever. Can we say hello to every romcom, hallmark movie, and romance novel out there. I love that stuff though so perhaps I'm biased. If you are looking for a fun romp full of great music, fantastic actors and a typical storyline... go for it! Get a glass of wine and your besties.
