Ally Ham The Review Geek If you can excuse the uneven family drama, stream Faraway on Netflix for the beautiful Croatian landscape and the sparkling chemistry between Krauss and Bogdan. Rated: 6/10 Jul 24, 2024 Full Review Ruth Maramis FlixChatter Film Blog A predictable rom-com elevated by the charming performances of Naomi Krauss and Goran Bogdan, plus the Croatian scenery is absolutely breathtaking. Rated: 3.5/5 Jun 7, 2023 Full Review Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media Faraway is far from perfect, but the ways in which it hits the mark are funny, true, and satisfying. Rated: 3/5 Mar 15, 2023 Full Review M.N. Miller Ready Steady Cut Faraway is a funny and sweet romantic comedy about people of a certain age. Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 11, 2023 Full Review Jason Flatt But Why Tho? A Geek Community Faraway is a satisfying middle-of-the-road drama of self-discovery with a tinge of romance. If you focus less on the plot vehicle and more on the moment-to-moment parts of Zeynap’s journey, you’ll get on just fine with this one. Rated: 6.5/10 Mar 9, 2023 Full Review John Serba Decider Faraway is nice, but “nice” doesn’t always mean “good.” Mar 9, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Dennie T Real and relatable. The journey of a woman through life’s very real and raw challenges. Giving hope to many. Made me want to quit my job, life in the city and move to a stable overlooking breathtaking water. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/29/24 Full Review Rosana B Eu adoro essas comédias românticas simplesinhas e água com açúcar, leve e deixa nosso coração quentinho... Trilha sonora deliciosamente perfeita enquanto nos maravilhamos com uma paisagens estupenda (a bela Croácia), uma mulher madura que de um dia para o outro decide deixar tudo para trás em busca da herança de sua mãe, e descobre que vai muito além de apenas bens materiais, ela redescobre sobre a paixão, o tesão, o amor à vida e o amor a si própria... Tudo muito gostosinho de desfrutar... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/14/24 Full Review Helene H Faraway is a very good, honest, serious movie about lifes ups and downs... A heartwarming, and funny movie 🤣.. one of the best comedy dramas, I have seen for a while .. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/07/24 Full Review Tina H Honestly ... I loved it. My soul feels happy and hopeful and: Naomi Krauss - you have a new fan! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/18/24 Full Review Audience Member An offbeat, thoroughly enjoyable romantic comedy. For adults. Not a teen movie. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/08/24 Full Review Fleces P It's like a cross between a cheap romantic comedy and a spanish telenovella. There are a few decent laughs along the way, but it is ultimately not a memorable film outside of the general showcasing of Croatia and how undoubtedly everyone watching this film is thinking about how nice it would be to escape everything and go to a place where you can sit and stare at the sea from your fancy, simple cliff barn/house thing and forget the awfulness of the world around you. It's pretty predictable. But charming none the less. I'd say put it on if you are ready to read and don't mind some simple escapism. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/09/24 Full Review Read all reviews
