The idea of “The Lost City” is similar to that of “Romancing the Stone” and numerous other adventure films, therefore the picture isn’t all that original. Its jokes are as obvious as the towering volcano on the isolated island where much of the action takes place. The movie’s tone and pacing are immediately apparent, and the audience is given enough warning about every major plot point. In spite of this, there is a great deal of solace and pleasure in all this familiarity. Just like a good romance author, brothers Adam and Aaron Nee, the film’s directors and co-writers, know precisely what their audience is looking for, and they provide it to them in the form of an unquestionably entertaining (and, refreshingly, IP-free) love frolic. Moviegoers should see it in the cinema with popcorn and then watch it again and again on Netflix with wine. Loretta Sage (Sandra Bullock) is a jaded romance writer whose career is in jeopardy due to her sadness at the loss of her spouse. She has an equal hatred for her books’ cover model, Alan (Channing Tatum), a supposedly stupid beefcake who indulges her customers at signing events, as she has for her books themselves.

Abigail (it’s a gender-neutral name, evidently) Fairfax, portrayed by Daniel Radcliffe, an adventurous and wealthy man, kidnaps Loretta during a book promotion event. Fairfax is certain that the lost city described in Loretta’s book is genuine, and he has asked her to decipher some ancient writing that points to a treasure before a volcano erupts and destroys it all. Alan, with the assistance of his meditation teacher Jack (Brad Pitt) and Loretta’s stressed-out editor Beth (Da’Vine Joy Randolph), sets off on a foolish mission to save her. Although the inevitable romance between Loretta and Alan is not avoided, “The Lost City” does a wonderful job of delving into the growing connection between Bullock and Tatum’s characters. The film focuses in particular on Alan’s sensitivity and unflinching loyalty.
Even while he’s kind to call Loretta a “human mummy,” he also understands that she becomes irritable without food and may benefit from a more sturdy pair of shoes for walking over the rocks. Alan, like many classic romantic heroes, is both handsome and kind. Tatum is a fantastic choice for this part because, in addition to having the kind of good looks that would make him a natural for the cover of a romance novel, he is also a talented actor who knows how to play to his strengths. In addition, Bullock has a little problem identifying with her character’s physical clumsiness and the softening of her prickly exterior. Fun and genuine affection permeate every interaction between them. To a script that normally plays it by the numbers (oddly, this isn’t a complaint, “The Lost City” is working with an excellent formula), the supporting cast, especially Patti Harrison as Loretta’s wildly self-involved social media manager, adds brilliant, weird punches of humour. The only thing about the film that doesn’t work is Radcliffe.

While everyone else in the film fits neatly into their tropes, his character stands out as the one area where the film attempts to shake things up. Some may criticise “The Lost City” for being predictable and ridiculous, yet the film succeeds in many respects that are worth noting. Both the visual and acoustic brightness is high. It’s a fresh take on the genre, told by writers and directors who understand their material. Most notably, the core connection has a genuine appreciation for the emotional sensitivity and fragility that readers of romance novels need. In the end, “The Lost City” cares about exceeding audience expectations. This is accomplished on a surface level that may seem simplistic at first but is executed with such care that it will stand up to repeated viewings. This report was written by the SXSW Film Festival.
