So this is part 1 of 'Gabriel's Rapture' based on the second book of the same name from the Gabriel's book series written by Sylvain Reynard, which is also 1 of my favourite book series. Like the first movie 'Gabriel's Inferno' that was adapted from the first book which was cut into 3 parts, 'Gabriel's Rapture' will also be cut into 3 parts because the movie is so long, so far only part 1 of Rapture has been released so I'll only be reviewing part 1 for now.
The story picks up right after the events of Gabriel's Inferno part 3, with Gabriel & Julia in Florence Italy, Gabriel had to present a lecture at the Uffizi museum & decided to take his girlfriend & student Julia with him to Italy. In part 1 we get to learn a little bit more about Gabriel's past and see the relationship between him and Julia develop even more, but their relationship is also complicated due to the arrival of Gabriel's vindictive ex girlfriend Paulina who will cause some problems for the couple later in the story. Julia's former friend & roommate Natalie who had an affair with Julia's ex Simon also makes her first appearance in part 1, she will also complicate things for Julia further into the story.
Part 1 only covers the first 1/3 of the Gabriel's Rapture book and is a little bit slower paced, it's mainly focused on developing Gabriel & Julia's relationship further and introducing some newer characters to the story like Paulina and Natalie. Most of the drama in Rapture will happen eventually in part 2 when Gabriel & Julia's forbidden relationship is finally exposed to the university. Part 2 will be released later this month so I am looking forward to seeing all the drama unfold in part 2.
But in the meantime, I still enjoyed part 1, even though it is slow paced, because I love the beautiful lovestory between Gabriel and Julia so much and always love seeing the incredible chemistry between the actors Giulio and Melanie on-screen!
I'm looking forward to watching parts 2 and 3 of Rapture, which will delve deeper and further into the story of the second book.
