Following on with the four best friends as they go on an adventure fo Italy for a fun girls trip, something they never managed to do!
⭐️⭐️
Now, I really need to start this review by saying that I actually really did enjoy and somewhat love the first film of Book Club and even saw it twice at the cinema when it was released.
I attempts to pick up where it left off with the characters, but it also did put Covid into the story and just a lovely reminder of Zoom and group video calls where someone manages to turn themselves into a potato. I mean I know this was part of live and a very strange time period but I’m not really enjoying it in films in all honesty.
Anyway Diane, Vivian, Sharon and Carol are about to have a girls trip as from of a bachelorette party in Italy. They realise that this was something they had failed to do despite the decades of friendship and support for one another, although the jokes are now to be recycled and taken to a different country.
I mean it really does try and it is always good to see older actresses given films to lead, I just thought this fell short of the first film. Candice Bergen certainly takes a lot of the credit and is given the most interesting of the character developments for her character. They had all been through a lot and it was an attempt to show that no matter what age you are at you can still have adventures, experience new things and find love.
