    A fine romance story with an incredibly huge structural mistake
    I felt the need to write this as I am currently watching it on Rai1. All its ups and downs aside, there is something abnormal about this movie. It fails to start within the first 30 minutes. That part almost does not belong with the same mood with the rest as it focuses too much and solely on the male protagonist.

    After that, especially during the moments when he encounters for the first time with the amazing Vahina Giocante, the whole picture changes. It becomes a watchable movie with notable interaction between the characters.

    It may not be a masterpiece, nor funny enough to pass as rom-com, but it deserves better than a below-6 score on IMDb.

    I guess most people find no merit it going on with this after the opening act, which kind of sucks.

    Otherwise, it is okay. And even kind of more than okay at times when Vahina and Vincent have enough screen time to share.
