Overall the storyline is wonderful... what a brilliant idea....but there were just a few things I could NOT get past...and wish I could have cause I would have enjoyed this sooo much more...
1) The mothers age as it pertained to the child...ok maybe its more the mother... guyish looking... oldish... wasnt crazy about the selection of actress....felt like she was perhaps not always a female? hate to say it but it left me feeling that way
2) The absolute horrid use or attempt at use of sign language... what exactly was that? It kept me completely perplexed... Clearly the actors did NOT know sign language..and used certain signs during there complete conversation.. ANd I know what some will say... the boy could read lips..yes thats fine..but they still tried to do this IN THE DARK... in a few scenes..It just didnt work ..not at all.. and to TRY was worse than writing the entire angle out.. Clumsy of them...
The cinematography is great...movies well shot.. suspense everywhere.. Its NOT a bad movie if you can get over these two things...not at all..so I rated it "decent"...
*Tip for animal scenes.. ALWAYS watch movies with your pet.. when tuff scnes come about...turn straight to your pet till its over and think about how much you love them... works everytime for us...
