Chilhood memories

A beautifully sad story. I remember seeing the DVD cover at the video rental store when I was a child. Good times.As many of the comments say, it's just a movie and, in the end, it doesn't accurately portray the reality of events.Well, I don't know, I wasn't there, but we know that movies are dramatic and that's one of the reasons we love them so much.The actors are excellent! Big names with decent performances. I remember wanting to see the film when I was a kid, but I never rented it.However, I recently watched it on Max and regretted not having done so sooner. It's a good movie, give it a chance.

Everything is awesome, except the script

A great demonstration on how a great soundtrack can carry a mediocre film to astounding hights. Watched this when I was younger and was captured by the astounding VFX work.Now years later, with gimicky tension devices and quite flat caracters that are well performed, it gets a 6. Without the soundtrack it probably would have been a 4 at best but my god, what a wonderful score this movie has. There pretty much is no plot to write home about but everything else is great.A great weekday night flick to (re) watch with a nice cup of tea under a warm blanked, far away from the sea. An incredible true story.
