Like a failed soufflé on Bake Off, it never rises to the necessary level. Go to Full Review

Garcia & Collette are the highlights of this romantic scenario ... great chemistry, taking ordinary dialogue to seductive heights. Pettyfer and De Dominici are both beautiful actors, and create tension themselves in a will-they-or-won’t-they struggle. Go to Full Review

3/5
Whilst as a romantic comedy it isn’t perhaps the funniest venture – it’s the type of movie to elicit a warm smile as opposed to a belly laugh – Under the Stars is all so very agreeable that its shortcomings are forgiven. Go to Full Review

This is a quiet, slow-paced romance with some gentle humor and a lot of gorgeous Italian countryside. Go to Full Review

“Under the Stars” has two fine actors in Andy Garcia and Toni Collette, but they’re in support mode here, leaving the rest of the movie to tepid events and easily solvable problems. Go to Full Review

Ann F @Thisishardwork 2h I really really like Toni Collette so I thought I'd give this movie a go. Honestly felt she was just doing it for the pay check and a trip to Italy (and not the best scenery that Italy has to offer). Not the kind of film like The Holiday that you'd want to watch again. See more Rhiannon R @Rhiannoona 5d A bit Meh from start to finish. Female lead starts off unnecessarily hostile and snarky to Male lead then that story line stops. Multiple plot points are muddy or lead to nothing. A basic, romance movie without much substance. Good for background viewing but nothing groundbreaking. See more Read all reviews
