If you're looking to engage with the movie on a superficial level, it has plenty to offer. And if you want to dig a little bit deeper, that's there, too. Go to Full Review

Resort to Love offers a cute love story starring attractive leads, but it has the look and feel of a vacation on a budget. Go to Full Review

Lluvia A Jul 13 Predictable love study. It follows very familiar trips. Christina Milian is great though and I enjoyed her musical performances. Although it’s a cheesy story, it’s a good comfort watch. See more Irina B 10/24/2024 A beautiful love story in a gorgeous setting. The story explores the idea of needing closure and second chances and recognizing one's priorities in life. The movie is emotionally moving with lovely musical performances. Not the usual predictable rom-com, but something a little more thoughtful and mature with lots of funny notes. See more Amanda N 10/17/2024 Okay so let me start by saying I love a Christina Milian rom-com. I've seen this 3 times, same with Falling Inn Love (that one is easily a 5 star for me). ***Spoiler alert- even though you've had 3 years to see it*** However, Resort To Love kinda irked me this 3rd time because it's just so unrealistic. Like it bothers me that she dated Jason for 4 years, was ENGAGED to him, but never met his brother, let alone saw a picture of him. She knew their parents, but never even saw a picture of this man who was his mom's golden child??? She was also still crying about Jason a year after he left her, but she never stalked him on social to see that he was in a relationship/engaged again? We know he had social media as it was pointed out because of her best friends algorithm with the ads thing. Then there's the fact that she most definitely was not a girls girl as she was sneaking around meeting Jason. And his wishy washy feelings, then acting like he married his true love pissed me tf off. He def settled. And her singing their song at his wedding was like a "you've gotta be kidding me" moment. There's no way that wouldn't have hurt either of them. Then she jumps off the stage to kiss his brother? Omggggg. It was only the night before that Jason was trying to meet with her, if this was a true story, he probably would have lost his mind seeing that. Anyways, it's a cute rom-com if you take it with an absolute tiny grain of salt. See more 05/26/2022 Horrible acting,lame story,not even funny See more 03/12/2022 It is what it is: a lovely, fun light-hearted and silly rom-com :-) See more 02/19/2022 Go and watch a documentary or do something useful with your time, don't be like me wasting hours of your life watching a predictable script, pathetic acting, zero comedy 😑. It was so predictable it's embarrassing do writers just not try anymore? Shout out to Jay Pharoah for some of the worst acting I've seen . So cringey, no genuine connections. Absolute smut and a disgrace to cinema. Not romantic nor is it a comedy See more Read all reviews
