A lame romantic comedy about twin Australian brothers in love with the same woman. Go to Full Review
Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times 01/01/2000
2.5/4
Hotel de Love is a pleasant and sometimes funny film, without being completely satisfying. It is too twee. Too many lines are said for their cuteness, too many exchanges sound like a comedy routine, and the movie works too earnestly at being daffy. Go to Full Review

For anyone who has ever wasted time pining after a woman you know little about, this is a good one. Rick and Steven are joined by their horribly contentious parents, making for an interesting story at every turn. The direction seems a bit canned at times, but there are a few scenes that are executed with perfection. Lovable cast.

Simon Bossell, who played the dorky brother, just so overacted the part it made it ridiculous. The writing for that character also ruined the movie. NOBODY is believably that pathetic and dorky. If they are, they should seek mental help. See more Read all reviews
