Like a warm hug

Step into Italy with warm scenic beauty, golden sunshine, and charming Edwardian-era architecture. La Dolce Villa is the most relaxing escape you can indulge in right now-it's sweet, tender, and as aromatic as an authentic Italian café.I have to appreciate the film's underlying social message about Italian village properties being auctioned for just one euro. It adds a layer of depth to the story, making it more than just a picturesque getaway.Story-wise, it's fine, but I really admire the craftsmanship and construction makeover that went into bringing the old villa back to life. Imagine giving a story to those satisfying room makeover videos on youtube. If you're looking for a decent film to enjoy while preparing a cozy meal, this is it.I'll go with a 7/10 for this one-it's like a warm hug.

Nice backdrops but very superficial

Well.. I am wondering if there will come a time, when Netflix movie will be more high quality?It seems to me most of the movies made are made to have it as a backdrop while cooking, which is too bad. Probably we are to blame cause we watch them and create demand.This one in particular is actually a nice plot with a lot of potential due to popular romanticised reality of foreigners buying 1 euro houses in Italia, but it is again made so cheesy and corny and lacks depth or quality acting. Feels very superficial. Don't get me wrong, it still is a nice backdrop, mostly due to surroundings and location, but otherwise lacks depth heavily. It is too bad, cause all these films seem half-done, and like my parents used to tell me my whole life, getting things half done is worse than not doing them. I must agree.

Recipe of a romantic movie

Kinda feel like they just follow a recipe of how to make a romantic comedy. It's a nice movie, but maybe too many stereotypes of what could be a romantic comedy. Like, they could be more subtle.Also, do they have issues with the camera? Why are some can characters shaded in some scenes? Like the grandmas waving? They didn't see that in post-editing?At least, you see beautiful sceneries of Italy. It made me want to buy one house for 1 euro and move there today.Italy definitely has the vibe they portray.Overall, it is a good movie to pass the time on Valentine's day with your significant other.
