  • Resumen

  • Lamar Reviews - "Ticket to Paradise" (Airdate 11/4/2022) If I was going to make a no risk movie, I would find two actors that have been around a while that everybody loves. It would really help if they had been in some movies together, and that they were both gorgeous. I would stick them in an amazing location, have them be bitter enemies the first half, and of course be madly in love before the credits roll. This is that movie.   Ticket to Paradise stars Julia Roberts and George Clooney as divorced parents Georgia and David Cotton. He is an architect and she owns an art gallery. They have a daughter Lily, played by Kaitlyn Dever, who is graduating Law School. Georgia and David both loath the ground the other one walks on. They despise each other and can’t stand to be in the same room. The opening of the movie has David and Georgia relating how the proposal went to other people. Each perspective is the exact opposite of the other, as in, David saying, “Her parents thought she was too young”. While Georgia’s memory is “They thought he wasn’t good enough for me.” The chemistry of them bickering one liners back and forth is very entertaining.   For graduation they send Lily and her roommate Wren, played by Billie Lourd, to Bali. There she meets an Island boy named Gede, played by Maxime Bouttier, and falls madly in love. She decides to skip being a lawyer, marry Gede, and farm seaweed. Although Georgia and David hate each other, the one thing they agree on is they have to stop Lily from throwing her future away by stopping this marriage. They accomplish this by “Trojan Horsing” Lilly, buy acting like they are all in for the marriage, but at the same time secretly sabotaging it.   As an added side story Georgia’s much younger boyfriend Paul, played by Lucas Bravo, who happens to be a handsome airline pilot shows up.   The movie is 1 hour and 44 minutes, Rated PG-13, just like all good little romantic comedies.   Let’s be honest, you are not watching this because it will be life changing, you are not looking for a complicated emotional plot, and you won’t be talking about it 3 weeks from now. You watch this to see two beautiful people, that have enough talent, and a shared chemistry, to entertain you against a breathtaking backdrop.   It did seem that Clooney and Roberts were trying to downplay their Hollywood good looks. Julia Roberts spent most of the movie in jumpsuits that honestly looked like a mechanic wearing oversized coveralls. But when she puts on clothes that actually fit, and laughs that huge laugh she has, you are reminded just how glamorous she really is. Clooney did his best to tone it down, but he could put on a burlap sack and crawl through a sewer, once he twinkles his eyes and cocks his head like he doesn’t understand, he’s the handsomest, most charming man on the planet.   It is totally worth your time and money to see Clooney and Roberts dancing to House of Pain’s Jump Around! Yes, the movie is totally predictable, but just like the Holiday Inn, the best surprise, is no surprise.   My Score: 4 Cold Refreshing Buds Learn more about your ad choices.
