You know the sayingif it ain’t broke, don’t fix it?

We’d hazard a guess someone over at Netflix has it tattooed on their chest (or at the very least, it’s plastered up on the office walls) because the streaming service has just released another delightfully cheesy rom com, Falling Inn Love.

Following on from the success of other Netflix rom coms like To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before,The Kissing Boothand Always Be My Maybe,Falling Inn Loveis essentially a New Zealand version of theThe Holidayand stars a long-lost Kiwi Hemsworth brother.

OK, we made that bit up, but stay with us.

Watch the trailer for Falling Inn Love below and get very excited. Post continues after video.

Falling Inn Lovefollows disillusioned city gal Gabriela (played by actress and 90s RnB singer Christina Milian), who after losing her job and boyfriend, manages to win a dilapidated inn in rural New Zealand via an online competition.

So, logically, Gabriela leaves her life in San Francisco in order to renovate The Bellbird Valley Farm, but on her way to the farm, she loses control of her suitcase and it accidentally rams into the car of a very attractive local by the name of Jake (Adam Demos).

Unbeknownst to her, Jake ends up helping her fix up her inn. Because,of course he does.

It's the classic girl win inn, meets boy scenario. Image: Netflix.

Not to prematurely judge a movie by its trailer, butFalling Inn Loveticks every soppy, cheese-filled, marshmallow pink rom com cliche ever, and we are so in... Or should that be 'inn'?

It watches a little likeThe Holiday, and fans of the lesser known rom comUnder the Tuscan Sunwill also notice a few similarities.

Falling Inn Loveis already getting Twitter fans excited for the drama and its insights into New Zealand country life.

Here's what they're saying about the film:

Falling Inn Love is giving me Under the Tuscan Sun vibes from the trailer and I can’t wait to see it

You can never go wrong with the Hallmark formula: city girl goes to the country and finds romance. I predict a win for @netflix. https://t.co/J5GqHwWLou

Falling Inn Love? I’m totally inspired to write a rom com about a macrame artist called What’s Knot To Love! https://t.co/KCJSbNDxkP
