Leave your thoughts about Chalet Girl.
| BrianOrndorf.comBrian OrndorfThere's just not enough to hold attention, eventually succumbing entirely to convention in a particularly insipid finale. Who knows, maybe even teenage girls will be rolling their eyes at the predictability of it all. |
| Little White LiesZara MillerAnother 'modern twist' on the rom-com? really? |
| News of the WorldRobbie CollinExactly the kind of funny, sunshiny, teen-skewed romcom that Britain normally struggles to make. |
| What CultureMike EdwardsArchetypal, feel-good fluff at it's best. |

| Daily Mail (UK)Christopher TookeyA fluffy little romcom that could have been better, but will do nicely until something more daring comes along. |
