Big Fish

Rating: 8/10 (21 August 2008)

I think the best part of this movie is the story itself. It might seem unbelievable but the story is still easy to follow. It's about a man named Edward Bloom who has many great adventures in his life which becomes a story that he tells a lot to people.He has met a witch when he was a child, he has been friends with a giant, and he has done any other adventure that many other people won't even think to do. Everybody loves his story except his own son, Will, who thinks that his father's great adventure was all a lie. He has never even spoken to his father for years. Edward has been told and retold his stories since Will was still a kid for many many many times that Will can hardly remember all of it. But he still doesn't know when his father is telling the truth or telling fantasies. Edward grows older and older and older and he get sick. His wife tells Will to come home and since then things has started to get better between Edward and Will. In the end, Will has became a great storyteller of his father's adventure.
I think the story is fantastic although it may seem too impossible to be true. I highly recommend this movie because once you watch it you can get moral values from it. You can learn many things about life from this movie.
