A film that is completely carried by it's outstanding cast and their emotional and beautiful portrayal of this real life amazing story. Ewan McGregor and Naomi Watts are in top form, as are their onscreen children.

This movie was gripping. I was crying and scared at several different moments in the film. Excellent watch.

When I went to see this at the local theatre, everyone in the theatre was moved to tears. Your heart reaches out not only to this family who actually lived this, but the many who suffered. Tom Holland did an outstanding job in portraying the real boy. And so did Naomi Watts, and Ewan McGregor. I will be buying the blue-ray as one to show friends. Can only say this was really underrated, but will be an unforgettable classic.

Most underrated movie of 2012

How did this get an oscar nomination? Bad acting dialogue and far too much of a hollywood feel. I went to see this with my wife last night, and even she didn't cry at all.

let down. emotions in the movie were too forced, it didnt do justice to the true story this is based on. still gave it a 2nd star for the story it was based on, which is still touching.

This movie was dissapointing. Considering the bad acting on the part of the male lead, the lack of showing many of the other survivors (instead seemingly having tunnel vision on the main couple), and the way they really tried to polish everything up dissapointed me greatly. No surprise here that it didn't get more than one oscar nomination, and that that one was for Naomi Watts.

This movie is absolutely brilliant a master piece,especially the actor Tom Holland,he is a fantastic actor who I one day aspire to like,I just wish him the best of luck in his high potential future as a professional actor.I idolise Tom Holland as he has shown the true potential of a young teenager (like my self) and the great things you can achieve with hard work and belief.I one day wish I could have the opportunity to achieve greatness like Tom, as I know he will be awesome in his future movies, Good Luck! :D
