With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- One for music lovers and people who like their stories with a little heart-flutter. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top. Sits nicely alongside How to Marry a Millionaire.
- The mood
- Light and funny, romantic.
- The pace
- Breezy, at 1 hr 30 min. Done before bedtime.
- What might put you off
- It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
In Benidorm, a mecca for impersonators of live singers, Dani doesn't want to be just a cover. He will meet Sandra and discover authenticity, love and what it means not to be one more.
