Thai Travesty
14 May 2024
Effectively an ad for the two Anantara Resorts in Phuket, albeit posing as a single resort in the film, it is not surprising to see that The Thai Tourism Authority were partly behind this production, which looks great and makes you want to hop on the first plane to the sun.

However, in doing so, you need to leave behind the cast of this sorry tale, who struggle with an appalling plot, some dreadful lines and indeed some lack lustre acting, notably the young couple getting married, who seem about as exciting as a bowl of dishwater, with the bride-to-be more obsessed with her army of instagram followers than with her fiancee and mother.

2 stars are given for the scenery, but nothing for anything else.

Scenery over substance
2 October 2023
At least this film looks good. In fact it looks very good and serves as a wonderful tourist promo for Queensland and the Whitsunday's. Even the brief scenes of London look very inviting, though the view out of the office window looks ominously like Brisbane.

This is almost enough to cover a very basic plot line and a script which could have been created by AI. That said, it is all very pleasant and innocent and the sort of film your Granny would approve of.

Aeroplane buffs are already having a ball identifying inaccuracies within the cockpit, but at least this plane does not morph into another type of airliner altogether as is a common practice in other movies.
