It seems to me a correct film. Not good, not bad, far to be memorable, offering more the seductive Fiji than a story in proper sense, mixing jealousy, selfishness, friendship, mistakes and, sure, romance. Honest acting, ordinary Hallmark story and nice locations. And , maybe, the gift to be far to be exceptional remains its unique but precious virtue. Because it propose ordinary facts in naked aspect , not having the desire to impress or convince. And it works, just well.

We all know how these television romance movies work. The formula is almost always the same. 1. Two people fall for each other while working toward a common goal or through overcoming an obstacle. 2. A misunderstanding arises due to a lack of communication, which leads to one or both people jumping to conclusions. 3. Everything works out and they kiss. Lmbo In the beginning, the male lead, Jordan is a complete jerk to Ellie. It's not right, but understandable human nature. He was injured and his tennis career is on the line. Jordan also lost someone close to him during the accident, causing some survivor's guilt. So he's hurting both physically and emotionally, plus he's scared of what the future holds. Ellie doesn't know the whole story. And neither does the audience yet, so to us Jordan is just mean. The actor who plays him does it fairly well. Some have a hard time pretending to be the jerk and they overdo it. His portrayal was believable. After physical therapist Ellie works with Jordan for a few days, they develop feelings for each other. He invites her out to a private island where they see some starfish. To get to them, they'd have to cross over some fairly large rocks. Jordan jumps right on them and starts clumsily walking. Ellie warns him to stop and to come back. Does he listen? No. And then he slips and falls, reinjuring his hurt shoulder. Well, Jordan is furious, but not at himself. He's angry with Ellie! I'm screaming at the tv that it was HIS fault. He doesn't listen to me either. About this time , Jordan's PR rep makes things worse by digging up dirt on Ellie. She blames her for Jordan falling on the rocks, plus has a crush on him. The dirt that the rep digs up is not true. There are two sides to the story, but does Jordan try to hear it? Nope. He asks her to get out and then later the PR rep brings Ellie a plane ticket home. This entire time, Jordan's coach has been a great friend to Ellie and is shocked at Jordan's behavior towards her. He confronts Jordan about sending her home. But it turns out, it was the jealous PR rep who bought the plane ticket. So Jordan runs to find Ellie and apologize AGAIN. After some convincing, she forgives him and you know the rest. Lol. While this movie is formulaic, i still enjoyed it and would watch it again. The acting is good from the four main characters. I enjoyed the plot and friendship between Ellie and the coach. There was a little chemistry between Jordan and Ellie, but it would've been nice to have seen more. If these movies allowed for more couple time after the misunderstanding was resolved, more chemistry could be developed! If you're looking for something to watch on a lazy day, this one is worth it.

The film is set in gorgeous Fiji and is a lot of fun to watch. The characters are incredibly likeable, and the storyline is excellent. I don't know much about therapy, but hey, it's a movie, and she at least appeared to be working. Congratulations to the entire team!

'Retreat to paradise' so perfectly imps the tone of a Hallmark romance that I didn't know it wasn't. It's unquestionably corny, but anyone stumbling across this already knows exactly what they're in for. I can't help myself - I really enjoy it. Director Brian Brough includes plenty of establishing shots around Fiji to make sure we get eyefuls of greenery and beautiful landscapes, or the ocean. His vision regarding the narrative is notably less expansive, as his camerawork mirrors Warren Workman's editing in keeping the plot flowing very quickly. It goes so quickly that within the first 20 minutes there's a big splash as the physical therapist confronts her surly tennis star patient, and she then calls a friend for advice. Like Brittany Wiscombe's writing, Brough and Workman disallow actors room to truly embrace their roles as no scene lingers beyond the conclusion of dialogue. And speaking of dialogue - Wiscombe's pen confers some extra personality onto her characters, though the often playful words themselves are direct to the point of unabashed cheesiness. So it is with the story she's written, though it's at least cohesive and whole - and mildly endearing. It's no great revelation - far from it - but even if 'Retreat to paradise' is clichéd in its bent (an air furthered by the very conventional rom-com soundtrack), it has a certain irrepressible charm. As is commonly the case with pictures of this nature, I feel like the cast is fine, but tend to be restricted by the writing and direction. I'm not especially familiar with most of the actors here, but I trust they've skills that would be brought out in a more elastic feature. Meanwhile, I've seen star Melanie Stone in several films now, and I know she's quite capable. She carries a strong ease and charisma about her that makes her portrayal of protagonist Ellie enchanting in her determination, persistence, and openness. Of course a requisite dramatic occurrence gives the plot a twist within the last fraction of the film. Even then, though, good work from wardrobe, hair, makeup, and set decoration lend to the pleasantness of what is generally just a feel-good movie. Yes, it's hokey, in the way the vast majority of rom-coms are. But a viewer isn't going to be watching this if they're not receptive to the genre in the first place, so it's easy to engage with the picture on its level. There's no reason to go out of your way to find it, but 'Retreat to paradise' is a sweet, straightforward experience if you come across it.

The male lead is certainly handsome but his attitude in the beginning almost made me turn it off. Fortunately I gave it a chance. He reminds me of an angry tiger with a thorn in his paw. Once we learn the deeper pain he's hiding -not just his physical injury, it makes a lot more sense. Ellie helps him open up and heal in many ways. So it kind of had to start that way. I enjoyed it.

For me, an excellent movie since I'm doing rehab myself for my knee, and before that my arm. Discouragement and laziness to exercise are a person's worst enemies when trying to recover from an injury as pointed out in this movie. It shows how important a caring therapist can be in the patient's recovery and that being a good therapist is more than simply a job. I found myself starting to exercise my arm while watching this movie, after not doing the exercises for quite a long time, so I know this movie is good. It's truly motivating.

Loved this one... love the actors portrayal of their characters, wonderful scenery and such great feel good story. I have watched several times and enjoy it every time.

My wife and I loved this movie, wonderful story, actors, and best of all the scenery in fiji was amazing. We would have rated it 10/10 if we could have been in Fiji.

Same pattern of romance story. No touching point and kinda boring indeed. I rate 3 cuz for Fiji scene that make me can skip a place to visit. Probably the only good thing about this tv show.
