If you're looking to engage with the movie on a superficial level, it has plenty to offer. And if you want to dig a little bit deeper, that's there, too.

Resort to Love offers a cute love story starring attractive leads, but it has the look and feel of a vacation on a budget.

It feels like a Hallmark Christmas Movie, only without the Christmas.

The ending romance was a bit unsettling, but Christina's bubbly personality keeps it a float.

Predictable love study. It follows very familiar trips. Christina Milian is great though and I enjoyed her musical performances. Although it’s a cheesy story, it’s a good comfort watch.

A beautiful love story in a gorgeous setting. The story explores the idea of needing closure and second chances and recognizing one's priorities in life. The movie is emotionally moving with lovely musical performances. Not the usual predictable rom-com, but something a little more thoughtful and mature with lots of funny notes.

Go and watch a documentary or do something useful with your time, don't be like me wasting hours of your life watching a predictable script, pathetic acting, zero comedy 😑. It was so predictable it's embarrassing do writers just not try anymore? Shout out to Jay Pharoah for some of the worst acting I've seen . So cringey, no genuine connections. Absolute smut and a disgrace to cinema. Not romantic nor is it a comedy

Funny as all get out! Predictable ending, but that's to be expected for a romance movie. Solid acting.
