Review: The Light Between Oceans



Can a movie be too boring? Yes!

From the trailer, The Light Between Oceans looks like a chick flick, but it also looks interesting with the story line. A couple find a baby washed up and try to raise it as their own child.

Where this movie gains me in the fact of the story, it looses me in the fact that this movie is super boring and drawn out. Instead of looking at the expressions on there faces for five minutes, lets move on and shorten the run time of the movie.

Another point is the sound track for the movie. It is all old timie, loud music that has no words and will put you to sleep faster then you think.

Ok Ok So the last ten or five minutes of the movie is moving and will make you cry, unless you're soulless. Disney did do justice in the end of the movie, so they have that going for them.

You may read all this and think I hated the movie, along with all men, but I actually thought it was ok. If you want to see it, go. It's pretty good to see in theaters, and if you bring a lady, let her cry on your shoulder to get so good points to use against her later.

Overall I liked this movie. It was a tear jerker at the end. I agree it was too long and could have easily been shortened. I appreciate the detail at the beginning - but - the details got really light at the end. 15 - 20 minutes could be cut from this film and 10 minutes added back at the end. It is worth seeing - just a bit long.

Yes This movie isn't for everyone. A bit long and slow. But even though I was tired the emotional chains that it sets up in it's characters has you yelling inside at them. I enjoyed This flick and I know exatcly those sentimental love enthusiast out their will too.

This movie seemed to drag on for way too long. Made you lose a bit of interest in it.

I haven't seen the movie yet but my reaction to your review is that I might just agree with you. The premise sounds great but how long can you drag out the fact of the first few minutes of the movie.
