Deborah Ross

The Spectator

Chalet Girl is banal, witless, slushy, laboured and dull.

Pleasant if timid...

Time Out

Jones may be a charismatic comedian, but no amount of her skilled mugging, Britpop tunes or help from supporting stars can transform this derivative ugly duckling into a comic Anglophile swan.

Rated: 1/5

Den of Geek

It is this conflict, between cynicism and ambition, that begins to define Chalet Girl...

It's hard not to instantly forgive all the script's occasional faults and just be swept up in the feel-good nature of such a charming, easily-likable release.

The National (UAE)

Unashamedly aiming at a teenage audience, the film's lack of pretension is oddly refreshing

Filme: A Menina do Chalé Assistido: 23-8-23 Elenco: @felicity.jones @edwestwick @tamsinegertonofficial @brookeshields @sophiabush Modelo: #comedia #comediaromantica #comedy #romance Duração: 1h 37m Ano: 2011 Minha opinião: Uma comédia romântica e temos a participação de Brooke Shields (lagoa Azul o original). Onde é uma estoria que já conheceu da gata borralheira e o príncipe encantado, junto com a estoria de superação no esporte. A nossa gata borralheira é Kim e o príncipe Jonny um bilionário. Kim foi uma atleta de skate mas por causa das dificuldades financeiras acabou indo trabalhar na Áustria e lá é contratada para o período da alta temporada do inverno trabalhar no chalé dos bilionários como serviçais. E onde cruzam Jonny e Kim e rola a química, mas sempre existe os percalços da concorrência, do pré-conceito. E vemos a gata sofrendo, mas tem uma válvula de escape é ela aprender snowbord e vencer um torneio e ganhar dinheiro. Temos também no elenco Bill Nighy. Mais um filme para assistir nas férias, para relaxar. Como sempre como terminará esta estoria, para quem conhece a estoria, já sabe. Roteiro e enredo gostoso de assistir. Interpretações, sem muita exigência. Relaxar e assistir. Vale apena assistir? Sim. Nota: 6

So much critic negativity here. This is a does what it says on the tin movie. It's certainly feel good, well acted, easy characters to watch, fabulous scenery and Bill Nighy, what else do you want! I laughed and cried and laughed again. Don't miss the end credits, brilliant! If you need an uplift and don't get snowboarding then watch this movie. I personally don't think you will be disappointed, but don't expect your grey matter to be challenged too much!!

Formulaic sports/rom/com. Nothing new here. Even the on-snow shots are underwhelming. Best I can say is good looking actors/actresses. Maybe good for a few chuckles.
