Greenes Please don't spend money on this.

HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

parkergw I agree that the female lead is beautiful and the photography very good, but that's it. This movie is designed for an illiterate, superstitious audience. It's all about silly religious mythology that most religions have outgrown, and doesn't really go anywhere. The lead as a little girl and an a young teen were also quite cute as were the other young people. The acting was spotty at best. Such things as gold fish, black water, a plethora of beached starfish were all taken as signs from some powerful fairytale entity rather than even considering any natural solution. This is the kind of movie that could have been metaphorical, an allegory, or a morality tale. I figured that would have been its only saving grace,but it just didn't have any of these as the basis for the story. The guy in front of us at the theater fell asleep and his wife had to wake him at the end of the movie. I figure he was the fortunate one. Terrible waste of my time.The only good part was that my girlfriend paid for the tickets as a birthday present for me. I would have hated to throw the admission money away.Jerry

Ann Stevens This movie was a pleasant surprise at the San Diego Film Festival.More than any other of the movies I got to see, this one was able to transmit warmth trough the colors, textures, actors and music.Talking about award winning music, the score is still playing in the back of my mind. My favorite part of the movie is absolutely the ending, all the storytelling drives you without warning to a classical ending that I enjoyed so.The clothes that the women wear are fantastic also.I recommend to see this movie with your husband, a relative or a close friend.

tammyshh I don't understand why people (just some people) are saying that this is not a good movie. Maybe is because they are very angry at life or maybe because they are full on envy. Let me tell you, that this is one of the best movie I ever seen, the story is very good, the music is great and I loved the actors, especially Sonia Braga... everybody is so beautiful Sendi Bar, Johnathon Schaech, Julio Bekhor, Daniela Schmidt, Jessica Valdes... Wow! The other day I was reading a bad review that said that the movie was too beautiful. What??? Since when beautiful is bad??? Well... the only thing I got to say is that I love beautiful things and I guess that this is the main reason I Loved the movieTam!Que bonito es lo bonito!

mariaalfonsalarios I think that should be make in Spanish the movie because our language is very rich (i am studying English and I know that also the English is rich for the English culture).. but the movie the surroundings, everything make me remember to the Mexican culture., I am Mexican and I live in Mexico. and one thing with the culture is language. And I can't write this comment in Spanish :(. The music is pretty, the picture is better and Braga (the character that appears as Sebastian's mother) is really really beautiful. :). I think another thing that make me think (sorry for the repetition of words) that should be in Spanish is because I know that some actress were Mexican and the writer so that is why. But I really think that should be in Spanish with English subtitles.
