★ 7/10
Eat Pray Love presents a promising story about self-discovery after divorce, but it lacks emotional depth in portraying the essence of each chapter—eating, praying, and loving. While the exotic locations offer visual beauty, the film fails to fully explore their cultural and emotional significance. Despite decent performances, the storytelling feels shallow and leaves little lasting impact. Read the full review here: (Indonesian version : alunauwie.com) and (English version : uwiepuspita.com)
