Marco Busato No need to give away plot points, since the whole story is absolutely predictable from start to finish. But the way it is peppered with implausible elements, almost offensive sterotypes and clichés, and a totally uninspired direction, make this movie bearable to watch only if you can enjoy unvoluntarily embarrassing, silly moments and scenes. None of the actors seem interested in what they are doing; both Sarah Jessica Parker ad Raoul Bova, elsewhere charming, make you wonder what's even remotely interesting or attractive in the characters the play. And it's quite painful to watch Claudia Cardinale delivering a grotesquely bad acted performance. Close to "so bad, it's good"; alas, it's just bad.

adonis98-743-186503 Maggie is an uptight, single mother and college writing teacher from New York City. In an effort to reconnect with her troubled teen daughter Summer, she decides to embark on a journey to a Tuscan village that she frequented in her younger days. Upon arrival, Maggie runs into Luca, a handsome former lover who is still a bachelor and lives with his eighty-year-old mother, Carmen. Summer (missing her "bad boy" boyfriend in NYC) and Carmen (secretly planning a wedding against Luca's wishes to Marcelino, her one true love in Rome) impulsively steal Luca's car and race off to Rome. Maggie and Luca quickly pursue allowing the two mismatched couples to spend some time together and develop a new understanding of each other. Sarah Jessica Parker reaches bottom line with this film, the acting is not that great, her chemistry with her on screen daughter is a gigantic mess, the jokes don't land at all and it's something that we have seen dozens of times before with better actors and better scripts behind them. (0/10)

leonblackwood Review: I'm usually a suckered for an emotional Rom-Com but this film really wasn't that good. Sarah Jessica Parker is more annoying than funny and her daughter Summer, played by Rosie Day, just didn't have any respect for her mother or any adults whatsoever. The storyline also went from one extreme the next and I lost interest as soon as Maggie (Sarah Jessica Parker), threw her daughters iPhone out of the car window so she wouldn't receive calls from her boyfriend. When they finally reach the remote Tuscan village, were Maggie previously fell for the dashing Luca (Raoul Bova), she tries to bond with Summer but she just wants to go back to NYC to be with her boyfriend. Summer then decides to steal Luca's car and make her way back to the airport but Luca's eighty year old mother, Carmen (Claudia Cadinale) needs to get to her secret wedding, against her sons wishes, so she jumps in the car with Summer and they make there way to Rome. When Maggie realises that they have escaped in Luca's car, they take chase, to try and stop them in there tracks. That's the main concept of the story but of course, Maggie and Luca fall in love, which really wasn't that surprising, and Summer causes trouble along the way. I wasn't expecting too much from this movie because I don't really rate Parker as an actress. The script also was really poor and the silly situations that Maggie and Summer get themselves in, just became ridiculous after a while. Anyway, I wasn't a big fan of this film and I'm not surprised that it didn't go down well audiences around the world. Disappointing!Round-Up: Sarah Jessica Parker, 51, first hit the big screen in 1984, in the hit movie Footloose and she started to make a name for herself with films like Girls Just Want To Have Fun, L.A. Story, Honeymoon in Vegas, Striking Distance, Hocus Pocus, Ed Wood, First Wives Club and Mars Attacks but it was Sex and the City that made her an household name. After two hit movies from the series and the lead in The Family Stone and Failure To Launch, she hasn't really taken on many projects. The movies that she has taken on, have been really poor and her range, in terms of acting skills, are pretty small so this movie was a disaster from the beginning. It was directed by Ella Lemhagen who has made 11 movies for the Swedish market, which haven't really been heard of. I personally think that it's going to take a very well written movie for Parker to come out of the Sex and the City bubble because her career hasn't progressed since the hit series became popular around the world.I recommend this movie to people who are into their comedies starring Sarah Jessica Parker, Raoul Bova, Rosie Day, Paz Vega and Claudia Cardinale. 2/10

Gordon-11 This film tells the story of a divorced woman who takes her teenage daughter to Italy, in order to find the Italian man who swept her of her feet for two months twenty years ago."All Roads Lead to Rome" is fun to watch because it's a comedy and a romantic comedy in one. The comedy part is the daughter Summer and her moodiness, and the subsequent road trip that leads to much hilarity. The romantic comedy part is quite sweet because there are three different relationships in the film, and viewers will have different evaluations of the three relationships. The last scene is romantic and touching. The scenery is beautiful, and the woman playing the TV journalist is very beautiful as well! It's refreshing to see Sarah Jessica Parker in an entertaining film. I enjoyed watching it.
