Just amazing! Brought on a lot of tears

Rating: 9/10 (23 May 2013)

This movie is one of those that you can only watch once, but that one time is surely something to remember. There are scenes that are heart-wrenching, and there are scenes that are heart-warming, and the overall movie was just amazing. There are points where you want to throw up with the amount that these people had to endure. There's points where you want to cry from heartbreak, or cry from happiness for the characters. There really is some top acting in this movie. Though, besides Naomi, I didn't recognize the actors going in, I will certainly be looking for more movies they're in from now on. I think this movie truly captures the essence of what those people in the tsunami had to go through, and I think that was really what the most valuable asset of the movie was. The story line kept you on your toes, always begging to find out what happens next. The fact that it was a true story, makes it even more difficult to watch. Amazing effects and sounds have to experience the story with the people, and the brutal qualities make it difficult to watch at some points, unless you have a strong stomach. Just an overall heartfelt and tear-jerking story.
