great visuals -
Very emotional movie, great choice of actors, amazing play. Very touching and felt like i was in the movie. For sure will watch it again.
Riveting movie. Loved how all the actors played their roles. The writers were able to show the compassion everyone had in looking out for one another while dealing with their own pain.Great movie about survival against all odds and about strength and love in a family.
This movie has you in tears almost right away and it doesn't quit until the end...it's terribly sad and eye-opening to the traumatic event that happened that day. Amazing movie! Great actors especially the kids.
This was a very good movie made all the more captivating by the fact that it was based on a true story. It held my attention all the way through. The acting was great especially Naomi Watts.
Another movie that tell a story based on the tsunami in Thailand. Sensitive, and sad at times. The ending felt somewhat strained and unreal. But was still a good watch.
We saw the screening in Vancouver and the crowd response was positive. Good performances from the cast involved, and the film showed the sheer force and devastation brought about by natural disasters. So very devastating.
Amazing cinematography as able to "experience" what it is like to be engulfed by water & debris. A real sense of helplessness and loss during and after the catastrophe. It was sad that the family were only slightly scarred and were able to leave but locals were left with insurmountable devastation.
A touching movie with a lot of drama & suspense.
It is impossible to be as realistic as this film! It is impossible that this film does not touch our hearts!
