"Beauty and the Billionaire" now showing on Prime Video, most of the movie is filmed in SXM with some great shots of the island.

It's streaming on Tubi and others. Google it, it's a must for SXM lovers.

Thanks for the suggestion. Just watched it. Cute movie and loved trying to figure out where they were (most I recognized). Funniest part was when they were on the golf course and I looked at the wife with a look of.....bet they don't film much of that. And they didn't. I even found on Google Earth the villa they used. Beautiful place.

We just watched it. Cheesy and cute. Was like a Hallmark movie and was fun to watch. Sure beats some of the other violent crap that's airing on most channels. Questioned where she bought her groceries on the alley where the yellow truck is usually at.😉

Has anyone in Canada been able to find this movie streaming anywhere? My wife has not had any luck. Thanks.

We found it on utube, but even though it says complete movie, all we get is the trailer George

IslandBoi - Thanks for the link but when I click the link it comes up with a red banner saying "Content Unavailable". Oh well we'll keep trying.

boucharda - I think you are correct, it's a Canada "thing". There are times when a news story has a video with it that says not available in your region. My wife did find the movie on Amazon Prime for $3.99.

We watched it on Freebee for free through our Xfinity cable service. Wouldn't show up on Prime for us.

We watched it on Tubi streaming service. Long commercial breaks so if available on another platform with less advertising I’d suggest another.
A sappy movie with obvious plot but we continued to watch because it showed beautiful SXM.

There were very few commercial breaks and they were very short ones on Freebee.

I went to Prime Video and searched for the title. It came up saying 'with ads'. There were maybe 10 of them, each being about 10 seconds long. Was actually shown through FreeVee. Some good recognizable scenery but not sure I would pay to watch it.

I did pay to watch it...because the freevee ads are annoying to me. And I can't say I should have paid. It was terrible....except for the scenes of SXM. I loved those.

Yes, I don't think this will garner any Oscar nominations. Pretty formulaic plot, reminds me of the plots in the old Harlequin Romance books. One major difference, for those of us old enough to remember them: the titles used to be something like "the Secretary and the Millionaire" or, in this case, "the Beauty and the Millionaire." Now all the men are billionaires. Is this due to inflation or what?
