Liam Neeson took a break from his string of increasingly diminishing action films to make this aspiring sensitive drama. Sadly, his charisma and talent can’t overcome this trite recipe for treacle. Michael Richardson plays his son, whoLiam Neeson took a break from his string of increasingly diminishing action films to make this aspiring sensitive drama. Sadly, his charisma and talent can’t overcome this trite recipe for treacle. Michael Richardson plays his son, who entreats his dad to rehab their old family house in Tuscany so he can use the money to buy an art gallery. The actual renovation quickly takes a back seat to the inevitable charms of Italy, especially one young woman.

Every plot turn has been seen many times before to much better effect. The only thing to recommend this film is the continual montage of gorgeous countryside scenery.… Expand

Nothing but cliches from beginning to end. Absolutely terrible in every way. Complete waste of time. Not one redeeming thing to recommend watching. So sad because I love Neeson and wish this collaboration with his son was better.

It seems bizarre to read so many critics comment on this film missing the romance mark, failing to warm the heart or bring laughter.

Bizarre only because that is clearly not the intention of the film. This film is purely a vehicle to exploreIt seems bizarre to read so many critics comment on this film missing the romance mark, failing to warm the heart or bring laughter.

Bizarre only because that is clearly not the intention of the film. This film is purely a vehicle to explore grief, through death and death of several marriages.

What is most surprising is the film doesn't rest on a the common trope, that one teary conversation fixes all ills.

It's clearly not a perfect film, but then the twists of a broken heart rarely are.… Expand
