Excellent Portrayal of a typical family finding them

Rating: 10/10 (12 October 2014)

I cannot begin how excellent this film is, its not a documentary, its about story told from the survivors point of view. All the criticisms and nitpickers can watch the first 10mins and say they don't like it because of such and such. i couldn't fault anything the movie reminded me of taking a holiday in the tropics. Allot of emotion has gone into this film and i know 300,000 people died in the Tsunami but this film was about Discovery, it was a film where Lucas takes responsibility for his mother. it was a story from a point of view of a a family of survivors there could of been more done but how long do your want the film to go for? we live in a world of criticisms and this film will get criticised for its portrayal that it centred on the survival of the family. But think about it during the Tsunami wave Lucas and his mother could of been easily separated, The Mother could drown or knock unconscious but the impossible was accomplished. i did few a bit awkward at the end where the Travel insurance comes along and saves the family, and leaving the less privilege to evacuate themselves from Thailand i mean all those empty seats on the plane i kinda felt that maybe.... but this how the story was told, and the father was on a good salary, but the women was near death. Great cast, Great film and Let more of the survivors come out and tell their story in Film both natives of the Thailand and abroad their PoV would be great to see how they survive more of this and less of the Reality TV shows of big Brother and The Bachelor. because you take something from this film and its hope, faith, Discovery, spirit and responsibility.
