Started #LoveintheVilla bc Kat Graham is everything. She leaves the airport, can't catch a taxi & a guy w/ a car says he's "Umberto" after she asks if he's Uber. She takes the ride & my thriller loving ass is, "No. What if he's a sex trafficker?" Then I realize romcom girls don't worry about that 😜

I need to give #LoveIntheVilla another whirl. I haven't watched it since it first dropped on #Netflix a few years ago. I enjoyed it. 🍿🍷🍷 #Italy #romcom #movie #filmsky

#loveinthevilla the writing and dynamic are bad enough but they have her bring cats into the villa knowing Charlie is allergic and we are supposed to just take the joke? That’s not cute or funny. 😵‍💫 it’s like a tik tok pranker wrote this. That’s corny.
