n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

The show follows a very strict formula, but it interesting to see how people across the world live in their homes. Several parts of the show are obviously staged right down to the final segment of every episode where the prospective buyers sit down at the end of every episode using the exact same dialogue each and every episode. The couple says something to the effect of," Well we have a huge decision to make." Then they discuss the pro's and cons of each property before settling on the property they want to buy.It's very interesting to see the look on the faces of Americans looking for homes in Europe and discovering how the Europeans have much smaller spaces than Americans especially, when they look for a location close to the city center of the large cities like Paris or London, but it's a good show to relax with its narrator has a very smooth voice.

I generally enjoy this show. I like the format and the glimpse into another couple's or family's life as they make a home buying or rental decision. However, it is extremely annoying to have the same things repeated 2, 3 or 4 times in a half-hour show. Either add some other footage or cut the show to 20 minutes. This same complaint of repetition could be made for the other shows in this genre produced by same company. I also find the voice of the narrator kind of irritating. Who knows, maybe I wouldn't if she didn't tell us 5 times that Jim & Sally are leaving behind their life in the States now that they are empty nesters -- or whatever.

House Hunters International is a fascinating show that takes you to the far corners of the world. Recently we saw residential properties (buy and/or rent) in Australia, Mexico, Caribbean, Central America, Spain, Iceland, etc.You get a chance to see these far flung places and also get a peek at the real estate market. The maps and the videos are very informative.Unfortunately the show has a formula that grows old over time. In addition, all the real estate agents have an annoying habit of never listening to the prospective buyers/renters, but this probably makes for a better show. In reality, these agents wouldn't last very long. The 2 or 3 month follow-up is always positive, which suggests some heavy editing. Did no one ever go wrong?Putting aside the problems with the format, the show is definitely worth viewing for anyone interested in how the rest of the world looks.

Have always watched House Hunters and international. We are living a show ourselves. We have just brought property in Mexico. We are waiting for our condo to be finished and we will be retiring there. We are working on selling our house here. The process of buying in Mexico is very interesting.We have an attorney helping us through and a great bunch of friends. Our real estate agent there is a gem and they have made things as smooth as possible for us. What a wonderful opportunity. I hope to maybe teach when we get totally moved. My husband wants to play golf. We both are ready to start our new life.
