    We missed the Koala !
    A woman travels to Australia pretending to be a tourist, but in reality having an agenda to sneak into the home of a wine company owner, so she can get a contract for her newly established distribution firm. Clearly an attempt of deceit !

    Later the guy, after having tried to tell her a few times, finally tells her who he is, and she accuses him of lying to her.

    Now, I'm not exactly sure how women's minds work, but in my mind lying is telling something that's not true, which he hasn't done at any point.

    It's not the first time this has happened in these kind of movies, and I wish they would stop doing that. Holding something back is not lying.

    Of course this is just a lame attempt to create some kind of conflict near the end of the movie. Cause we all know that there has to be a conflict, it's a mandatory part of any romance movie. But we also know that they are gonna end up together anyway.

    Anyway, this is not really a good rom/com. Demos does his quiet and charming aussie guy, and he's pretty much the only one who should get any credit. He did the same type in "Falling Inn love", which was a rather more charming movie.

    Victoria is pretty enough to be a female lead in these Hallmark type romances, but her acting skills are better left unmentioned.

    So a waste of time, and we didn't get to see a Koala either !!

    A PERFECT MOVIE
    Now here's how you make an almost perfect movie. This film is So charming, its cinematography is beautiful, the music is nice, landscapes and locations are spectacular and the production design impeccable. The cast is perfectly cast especially with the leading lady Victoria Justice a very charming, gorgeous, cute and talented actress. You cant take your eyes off her and she does an amazing job keeping up the charm the whole way through. The leading man was also special but there was something missing there, he was playing the brooding loner too much and was not given many layers apart from the brooding, it made him look uncomfortable. Apart from that the film was perfectly written and executed by director Stuart Mcdonald. My only negative comment would be that the constant need to include Gay marriage and Gay couples especially in places that would never exist makes it annoying, unrealistic and very contrived, be authentic guys, no need to tick boxes, stop selling your soul to the devil. If it comes natural in the writing then go for it, but please dont tick boxes. Highly Recommend this film, it brought a few tears and joy. Beautiful romantic film with all the usual formula ploys but works well alongside the Aussie countryside.
