When I first started watching this movie I didn’t know what to expect and it got really intense really quickly almost to the point of being uncomfortable but I feel as you get use to it that it gets more interesting. You have Massimo who is in the Mafia and falls in love with a girl he sees from a distance. He dedicates years of his life to finding her and waiting for her until he sees her again and kidnaps her in hopes that she will fall in love with him. Laura is in a relationship where she isn’t getting what she needs from her partner and on her birthday trip she gets kidnapped. She is scared and angry but she won’t cower in fear because of her captor. He wants her to fall in love with him but how can she? As time goes on she continues to push Massimo and continues to find that he isn’t what she thought he would be. She is allowed to have a life, and socialize with her friends and family, and go out as if she were still free. The only difference is that she now has the complete devotion and love of a man unlike in her last relationship. As time goes on she can’t help but wonder if she does love him after all.
This was interesting to say the least but its definitely not meant for all audiences. I liked how their relationship progressed and I like that Laura wasn’t a scared frail thing, she stood up for herself if she had to and Massimo tried to defy his nature to be what he thought she needed. The ending has me going WTF!!!! I couldn’t believe Netflix would end a Romance/Erotic movie like that. However, I did see that there would be a sequel that would be released this month so there is time for redemption because the ending of the movie was a cliffhanger vs. a tragic ending.
