Really Surprised!
Crappy film
Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

View MoreI caught another one of Holdridge's movies Midnight Kiss several years ago and have been waiting for him to direct something new. This movie didn't disappoint. It's a unique and brilliant story following the aftermath of a missed opportunity at a great relationship. The characters are well developed and the scenery is awesome. I love quirky sort of characters that stumble through life with so little confidence and so much perspective. This movie makes you contemplate how well you take advantage of the opportunities that lay in front of you and what really matters in life. If you have someone you love, I highly recommend that you view it together.
View MoreI was so pleasantly surprised and happy to find this gem of a movie! I saw it recommended on Facebook and it seemed interesting and I'm so glad I gave it a watch! It is such a beautiful love story that pulls you in and makes you laugh and cry at the same time! I loved finding out later that it was based on the real life love story of the actual actors in the film! If you want to see a refreshingly well done love story, this movie is for you too. The scenery alone is amazing! I highly recommend this film! I watched it with my parents and they loved it too! I am looking forward to seeing future films from these writers. I was so inspired by this artfully done movie that I got out my old sketchbook and started drawing after the movie was over!
View MoreI felt this movie had stunning visuals which is not surprising because the visuals were shot first, and then a movie, loosely based on the main characters' real life, was written later. The dialog was mediocre and clichéd, e.g., when the main character, Anderson, is jumping off a cliff he exclaims that he have never felt so alive. Another example is when Anderson's friend or agent asks him "if he got laid". The editing was instrumental in defining the mood of a scene, for example, when they were in a club the quick cuts showed the energy of the scene.The plot was somewhat predictable for the main couple but I was not sure what would happen with the secondary characters of Steve and Friederike. Alex Holdridge's acting leaves something to be desired...but he was the writer/director/editor and felt it easiest to tell his story himself.
View MoreMontenegro. Meet me there. The film MEET ME IN MONTENEGRO grabs attention. Having spent summer days in Europe's hidden treasure, Montenegro, the location for a celluloid celebration of romance is aptly cast. The sheer beauty and contrast of this country has attracted film makers to use it as a shooting location for many years. It's great to see relatively unknown countries highlighted, and featured on film. For those who haven't been there (yet), get ready to be transported there. For those of us who have enjoyed Montenegro, this film aims to bring it to life on the screen. Bravo! Viva Europa! The realism of films like this are a welcome contrast to car chases, explosions and special FX.
