Beautifully made and acted but the story doesn't engage you. I was disappointed, the hype and Oscar win made me expect better things.

Aesthetically wonderful, I wanted to love it but it fell flat and very short of my expectations. Thankfully, David Hewlett was reliably fantastic.

I am a big fan of this movie. Yes a chick flick, romantic yes even though its about fish love but u definitely find yourself engrossed in it n hoping its a happy ending for the deaf girl.
