There are certainly a few scenes at the start of this film (mostly those seen in the trailers) when there is a spark of chemistry between Julia Roberts ("Georgia") and George Clooney ("David"). Formerly married, this couple have to dash to Bali when their twenty-five year old daughter "Lily" (Kaitlyn Dever) announces her intention to marry her Indonesian boyfriend of ten minutes "Gede" (Maxime Bouttier). Even on the flight over, it's clear that they cannot stand one and other, but they must ally and work together if they are to stop their lass's moment of madness. What happens now reminded me…

MORE SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS @ https://www.msbreviews.com/ "Ticket to Paradise delivers precisely the formula it sells: a witty, light, fun rom-com that's well worth watching for its exceptional cast. George Clooney and Julia Roberts share some of the most engrossing, authentic chemistry I've witnessed all year. Kaitlyn Dever also deserves to be mentioned - one of the most promising actresses working today. Ol Parker manages to create quite an enjoyable viewing despite the spoiler-filled trailer. It doesn't reinvent concepts or hold any surprises, but it definitely works." Rating: B-

_Ticket to Paradise_ was a blast! The plot is not overly complicated and is pretty generic to be frank but that didn't matter. The actors carried the entire film and were a joy to watch on screen. Julia Roberts and George Clooney's chemistry was top notch, they played incredibly off each other creating a genuine love story between the two leads. Their comedic timing was brilliant, every line delivered and had me audibly laughing more times than I can count. Kaitlyn Dever did okay in this film, she did not have a lot to work with and was constantly out shined by Billie Lourd who was hilarious.…
