Coffee & Vanilla

Everyone seems to like submissive but cute airheads from the country. She's exactly the type I wouldn't even be friends with because I'd want to punch her every time she comes off as naive, pathetic, or both. A CEO and such a young man, and so capable. Intelligent. Manipulative. Beautiful. Perfect. Just delicious to look at. He kind of struck me as a fancy prostitute, paid by her parents so she could finally touch a man (and then he even proved he could be good at getting paid to woo women...). And there’s a lot of touch here – hugs and sex! And yet the scenes are cold, emotionless, it doesn't look like the airhead actually wants it. And did you notice the airhead's personality? I didn't either; maybe it was in there somewhere. Whoever finds it, let me know. Even a blow-up doll has more character. Anyway, it's kind of a classic. Prince falls in love with a damsel in distress, rescues her everywhere, "together" they overcome all the ridiculous obstacles keeping them apart so the ending is as sweet as a Starbucks coffee with three extra sugars. Terribly hard to watch, it's a total cringe. It’s only worth it if you want Japanese in the background. A weak 2 stars. (20.02.2020)
