I'll start with the positive: it takes place in the Alps, so the scenery is magnificent (especially the hot-air balloon scene). Kristy McNicol is just adorable in this movie. You can't help rooting for her. And the overall message is quite positive ( you have to accept yourself the way you are and other people will love you for it)
But...the first 45 minutes of the movie are a bit useless. She has 3 love interests who bring absolutely nothing to the rest of the movie. She's a concert flutist, but she could have had any job that would bring her to Europe. The script is pretty cheesy overall.
But it brought me back to the mid-80's, when I was a teenager...the hair, the colourful clothes, the synthesizers... nice little movie!
