It’s a glossy fairy tale about Americans having lighthearted adventures in Europe, getting into scrapes and falling in love and charming the pants off all the locals.

Ultimately, “La Dolce Villa” is about as authentic an Italian experience as a night at the Olive Garden.

Rated: 1.5/4

Anyone expecting anything groundbreaking or subversive from La Dolce Villa should remind themselves that this is a straight-to-streaming romantic comedy wherein the biggest name in the cast is the guy from Scandal and Scream 3.

Rated: 6/10

Despite following a now-established Netflix formula, this film still holds a few discreet attempts to diverge in the way it develops its characters and their relationships.

Imagine you write three different scripts all based on cliche Italy …. then you stick it in a blender, congratulations - viola you have this movie. They clearly had many ideas and decided to do every one of them. This movie did have one thing, a loft issue… a lack of story line.
