Searching for a fresh podcast idea for work, Chloe heads on a spontaneous trip to Iceland with her college friends. She doesn’t expect to run into her ex, Charlie, but what starts as begrudgingly spending more time together, results in new beginnings for them both.

Very meh. <em>'Love on Iceland'</em> is mostly what you'd expect from a television film, though does manage to mix things up ever so slightly by taking events over to Iceland - kudos for actually filming there, by the way. The premise is plain and entirely predictable, though a lot of the camera work is solid - including a decent amount of drone footage - even if a few shots did amusingly feel like Eurovision postcards. Cast-wise it's basic. Kaitlin Doubleday (Chloe) and Colin Donnell (Charlie) are average, neither terrible nor great. I actually think they missed a trick, Preston Sadleir (Kenneth) and Kate Easton (Erin) seemingly had way more chemistry together - of course difficult to tell if they are lead worthy, but I had more interest in their romance than Chloe and Charlie's. The Icelandic surroundings help raise the film up, but it's still a draggy watch. 2½*.
