Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Protraph Lack of good storyline.

ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

calicosilver Thanks for yet another great film, Wim. People who enjoy and appreciate Wim Wenders' reliably unique cinematic expression and ideas will enjoy this one also. No need to say more.

markbarner All the wonderful talented actors where mocked by the boringness of a thin story and weird long scenes that had no soul to them. I am so sorry this movie has failed. It has some of my favorite actors in it and it was just bad directing and a sad music score. The attempt to bind the story, characters and scenes together with water was awkwardly done and Far fetched. I am sure the script must have been good to lure these talented actors to participate. But movies like this can partially kill an actors career. I hope this is not the case. I felt it was utterly a waste of time with unrealistic conversations that felt misplaced. The movie only had a few good scenes. I am very disappointed and I didn't expect anything crazy anyways.

Bob Rutzel MI-6 Agent James Moore (James McAvoy) meets Oceanographer Danielle (Alicia Vikander) on a beach and they fall in love. Both want to save the world in their own way as both feel everything is connected and it's up to us to get involved to help save the world. The chemistry between them was very good and I know this because I wanted them to work. (You're too easy)It's a love story, but we find that James Moore is in a ISIS prison in Somalia and see he survives mostly due to his memories of Danielle; and she does the same finding out that for once in her life she is lonely and she tries to contact James Moore via text but since he is in prison, he cannot respond. It's a love story, but there doesn't seem to be any resolution in sight. He is taken to an isolated island where ISIS cannot be seen by military planes. However, it seems that James Moore has the perfect solution for that, but does he save himself? And again his memories center on Danielle. Meanwhile Danielle is in a submersible to explore life in the ocean and then things go wrong down there and I am not sure they save themselves, and, of course, her thought are of James Moore still. Hey, it's a love story...... ..It's a very slow love story, and they are thousands of miles apart, but seem to connect with their thoughts. But is that enough for we the viewers? Probably not as there was a beginning, a middle and we are not sure there was a proper ending. (Do we have to make up an ending again?) The music sometimes drowned out dialogues and because of accents conversations were not always clear. James McAvoy probably played his best role ever and is in the same class as Jude Law who he looked like at times. I had to check the credit list to make sure he was James McAvoy, but he did a great job regardless of who he looked like. But, come on: if you are going to have actors with accents, have them talk slower and not into their chests. The cinematography was absolutely stunning with scenes rarely seen in other movies. Alicia Vikander is truly beautiful and it was easy to fall in love with her. Yes, this is a love story and we wanted more, but nothing came. Again, we are not sure about the ending. Notable: Alexander Suddig as Dr. Shadid who helped prisoner James Moore as much as he could and yet James Moore says of him, "you help people, but live with killers." Dr. Shadid knows he is in a dark place. It's a love story, but there were too many scenes of James Moore in that cell with barely any light and we had to watch his suffering and, we too, suffered because of that. We enjoyed the scenes when both James Moore and Danielle were in them, but again there was no definitive ending. (Here we go again) (7/10)Violence: Yes. Sex: No. Nudity: No. Humor: Some, very little. Language: No. Rating: B

hitomi69 I disagree with some of the harsh comments here. This is a beautifully made film, subtle in execution but touching all the same and it makes me think of the more important issues in life: love, life, death, life after death. Shame that it did not receive the proper recognition and box office that it deserves
