Alex in Amsterdam (2009)

The movie's only flaw is also a virtue: It's jammed with characters, stories, warmth and laughs.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
