The Night Train to Kathmandu

Wow, it's been a long time since I've seen this movie. The pieces of it that I still remember were good enough that I'm thinking of buying it. It's time to see it again and re-live the magic.

I have just seen the movie on TV. I planned to watch it just to see how Milla looked when she was young. But Milla's eyes ain't the only thing worth seeing in that movie. The story is quite nice, and the Himalayas panoramas and Nepal views are really fantastic. "I'll miss Nepal everyday in my life, until I come back here..." :)

The story is lame, the acting is hokie, but it all works to be a fully enjoyable tv movie. Milla is so charming in this without being sensual or sexy. I give it a 7. A movie that is more than the sum of its parts.

This was one of my favorite movies when I was younger and still is today. It contains beautiful scenery of Napal as well as local people. A touching love story between two teenagers which is safe for the whole family to watch. You will find no nudity and no profanity in the entire thing. A great choice for family movie night along the lines of Anne of Green Gables but more modern. A young girl and her family move to Napal, against her wishes and there she meets a young man. Add in some local legends and the kids coming of age and deciding what they want out of life and you have a great movie. The soundtrack is also amazing. You will never ask a cab driver to wait for you the same way again. :)

Lucky for me my video store carry's random movies, so I did manage to find this one. It was totally awesome. It was magically, memorable, romantic, and unforgetable. There were even a few little funny parts that I thought were adorable. I recommend it to anyone, and it gets a 10/10 from me.
