    Love this series
    I don't get the ratings or reviews. If you didn't like the first movie why did you watch the second? And why did you watch this if not for the books? After reading the books I found out Netflix made these movies. They are just so good. I am so pleasantly surprised and satisfied by how this is portrayed on film. So much better than 50 shades.

    Nacho is just yum! Not really how I pictured him but beautiful. This 2nd part is very different than the book. But great direction of plot and where the story turned. Its kind if nice to read one story and then watch another story, like you will have more to enjoy.

    365 Days: This Day
    The original Polish film was essentially Fifty Shades of Grey crossed with a Stockholm Syndrome situation, it ended on a cliffhanger, so a sequel was pretty inevitable, but I did not have my hopes high it would be any better. Basically, Sicilian Mafia crime family leader Massimo Torricelli (Michele Morrone) and his Polish lover Laura Biel (Anna-Maria Sieklucka) are getting married. Laura may have survived the accident inside the tunnel, but she lost her baby. Her friend Olga (Magdalena Lamparska) says she should tell Massimo the truth, as she never told him that she was pregnant, but Laura is concerned of Massimo's reaction. The wedding goes ahead successfully inside a church with all friends and family of the couple witnessing. Massimo and Laura drive away and begin their honeymoon in a bedroom with her tying his hands to the chair. After undressing she pleasures herself with a dildo and he watches lustfully. Eventually she unties him, and they have sex. Meanwhile, Domenico (Otar Saralidze), one of Massimo's Italian men, is getting closer to Olga. Massimo and Laura spend the next few days playing a naughty game of golf (with the ball aimed at a different hole!), horse riding on the beach, making love in a hot tub and in a swimming pool, and swimming with little to no clothing in the sea. Later, Domenico and Olga are caught by Massimo and Laura while she is in her underwear while he is naked with her eating fruit and licking cream from his chest. Laura and Olga go to dinner; Olga gives her an idea for a sexual encounter with her husband. One day, while making love, Massimo leaves Laura in bed after receiving a business call. Laura again catches Domenico and Olga having sex in the bathroom. Laura and Olga spend the day together driving a sports care and at the beach. Masssimo interrupts the friends having lunch and insists that they leave. She berates him for now allowing her to have her own space now and then. One day, Laura meets Massimo's new gardener Marcelo "Nacho" Matos (Simone Susinna), nicknamed after his Spanish roots, and may be attracted to him. They strike up a conversation which becomes flirtatious. Later, Massimo and Laura spend Christmas with her parents, Olga, and Domenico. Massimo and Laura reconcile and passionately kiss, while Domenico proposes marriage to Olga, which she accepts. That night, Massimo and Laura spend the evening pleasuring each other and having sex with several sex toys. They lay in bed together talking about the accident and he reveals that he has a brother whom she never knew about. Laura and Olga spend the time at a luxury clothes store, owned by fashionista Emily (Natalia Siwiec) to try on a few dresses. Laura mentions that she is angry with Massimo but does not explain why. Massimo and Laura attend a party, and she sees him later in the evening upstairs with a blonde woman, ex-girlfriend Anna (Natasza Urbanska). She heads upstairs down many corridors until she catches Massimo having sex with Anna, she smiles at Laura while continuing to be penetrated, but Laura walks out before he can see her. She runs in devastation and is found by Nacho who offers to drive her away. The following morning he offers to take her away to collect her thoughts. Laura calls her mother to tell her that her previous suspicions of Massimo were right, and that she is leaving, she says she will call again in a few days, before throwing her phone over a cliff edge. Nacho takes Laura to his father's house. Laura's mother Klara (Ewa Kasprzyk) confronts Massimo about what Laura told her on the phone and tells him that they are going back to Poland. Massimo is confused about what has happened and starts searching for Laura. She meanwhile meets Nacho's pregnant sister Amelia (Karolina Pisarek) and enjoys her new life on the island. Massimo meets with Anna to try and find out what has happened to Laura, but she does not give him any answers and tries to flirt with him. Laura and Nacho start to get closer but do not give into their feelings. Meanwhile, it is revealed that Massimo's identical twin brother Adriano (Michele Morrone) posed as Massimo to be caught by Laura having sex with Anna. During the night, Laura dreams of making love to Nacho. When she wakes up, Nacho is fighting an intruder, later revealed to be a man sent by Massimo, possibly an assassin. Laura and Nacho go jet skiing and have a day at the beach. Laura later has further fantasies, dreaming of kissing Nacho in the ocean, and then him giving her cunnilingus. Laura starts enjoying her life on the island and at the same time she fantasises about having sex with Nacho. Laura has had enough of Nacho hardly telling her anything about his background; he finally admits his father Fernando (Ramon Langa) is the head of a local Mafia crime family, rival of her husband's family. Meanwhile, Massimo meets with Don Matos, who says Nacho lured Laura in as part of his plan to go against the rival crime family, though it was her own decision to come with him. Meanwhile, Laura is in a courtyard and encounters who she thinks is Massimo, but realises it is his twin brother Adriano. He tells her he wants to get rid of Massimo, before Anna walks in with a gun, she wants revenge for being abandoned by Massimo. Nacho brings Massimo to where Laura is located, and a stand-off begins, with Adriano holding Laura with a gun and Anna pointing hers at Laura. After Adriano tries to antagonise his brother, Laura breaks his hold of her and runs towards Massimo and Nacho. Anna shoots Laura in the back, Nacho shoots and kills Anna, and Massimo kills his brother with a gunshot. As Laura is unconscious on the floor bleeding, Nacho turns his gun at Massimo and momentarily aims it at his head, before lowering it and walking away. It ends with Massimo holding Laura in his arms, Adriana and Anna lie dead on the floor, but it is unclear if Laura will survive being shot. Also starring Dariusz Jakubowski as Tomasz Biel, Laura's father, Tomasz Mandes as Tommaso, Massimo's cousin, and Robert Wabich as Priest. Morrone is good looking, he also plays a newly introduced evil twin brother, and Sieklucka is beautiful, while Susinna is a good-looking gardener fighting for her affections. The chemistry between the two original leads and the lead female and the new love interest are fine, but like its predecessor the story seems less important compared to the scenes of softcore porn style sex and the extravagant locations, and the soundtrack dominating scenes can be hit and miss, another silly erotic romantic drama. It was nominated the Razzies for Worst Remake, Rip-Off and Sequel (with 365 Days: This Day), and Worst Screen Combo for The 365 Days Sequels. Adequate!
