Up at the Villa

This was a bittersweet romantic flick. It wasn't a great romance, but still, it was romantic. I like Sean Penn's character. He was very sweet and charming, and I was surprised at how quickly he was willing to give up his freedom for a lady he had only just met. I don't think he and Kristin Scott Thomas looked that good together, but they did have chemistry. The story was a little dull except for the murder and lies part, but it lacked intensity and the love stuff happened too quickly to be believable in the end. Good for when you have nothing else to watch.
