Go Fish

A very dramatic look at family dynamics. I couldn't help falling in love with the characters. I thought Mr. Simeone did a wonderful job bringing this ensemble together. Very good acting and the cinematography and productions values are quite good

Bad acting, uninteresting...once I start watching a movie, I rarely quit on it. I remember once, in fact, that I went to see a movie (The Cable Guy) with a group of people, and they couldn't take it any more. We had planned to go for coffee afterward, so they left, went to the coffee shop, and I caught up. I guess I have a stubborn streak or something because it was at the $1.50 second-run movies, so money wasn't the issue.

But this...I couldn't finish this. I got it as part of a 2 for 1 DVD pack at Wal-Mart, so at $2.75, I wasn't totally disappointed. I'm not insensitive to the plight faced by the character, and in fact I have someone with a similar problem in my family. But for me, the acting fell flat, I didn't believe the dialog, and so on.

A very real problem that faces many was tackled with a minimum of "gutter language" and NO steamy bedroom scenes. The acting portrayed a real humanity as each dealt with the character they were portraying and the conflict that they faced. Hat's off to the director, producer and actors for an outstanding night at the movies!!!
