Film Review: ‘Ticket to Paradise’: Insipid but Charming Rom-Com Getting Big Box Office Bucks

Mark Jackson
Updated:

The art and craft of acting is incredibly addictive. It’s got lows (extreme discomfort and embarrassment) that make the highs (rapt audiences in the palm of one’s hand, weeping at one’s drama and hysterical at one’s comedy) an absolute flood of endorphins. Master actor John Gielgud didn’t call acting “half shame, half glory” for nothing.
