Reseñas destacadas
I normally don't watch movies. Actually I rarely ever watch movies. But it was on cable and I didn't feel like being bothered with the other hyped up marketed acts last night so I sat through this.
And the summary of the movie was not accurate.
The ratings are a joke here.
First, this is one of the better screenwriting.
Two, Jennifer Garner CAN act.
Three, direction was excellent.
This isn't a feel good movie.
This movie is true to life. If not Palos Verdes, then anywhere in Southern California.
Life is not a feel good movie, and unfortunately it's really this ugly for anyone who is the unwilling trapped victim of a narcissist. In this case, it's the all too common children of divorce.
The reason why I don't like the summary "coming of age" is because it really isn't.
How do they come of age? These kids didn't get any sort of enlightenment or accomplishment. They're the protagonists that you will empathize with.
IF this movie had a hero, it would be a true blue canine family member. But these kids were not so lucky.
Many people can relate to this family regardless of who and what you are- and what your circumstances are.
And it's actually a good idea to watch something like this to put it in perspective.
I found the drama a little intense. I wish there was more better energy and sense of humor- but unfortunately, It's true to life.
This is a very good movie, people and characters in it are all look real. The broken marriages to so many families nowadays in almost every country of the world not only affected so many husbands and wives but also seriously messed up their children. America's social infrastructure is like a broken and shattered glass, so many broken families, so many toilet relationships, so many twisted hardship that kids have to deal with their parents' bad marriage. America has become a weird family tree, its branches and leaves so complicated, either the wives carried their kids to new marriage, or the husbands brought their kids from his first, second or even 3rd marriage to newest wives, while their newer wives or husbands also got their own kids from their former marriages. More divorces simply complicated the family tree's growth and burdened it to unknown, unpredictable and unfathomable abyss. Kids growing up from such broken families many have twisted views almost to everything that ensured them to repeat the same or similar situations of their own marriages, their relationship to their opposite gender. They would become a bad copy of their parents and usually, the 2nd or the 3rd copy will be always worse than its 1st edition.
This is a very cruel but up close and personal film that I could hardly be able to watch to the end. I pity the three young children from two different broken families. The hardships they have to deal with 24/7 are so cruel and unbearable. I felt so sad while watching it and couldn't resist thinking of my elder son's broken marriage, and the grandson jammed in between his mother and father. The hardship my son has to deal with everyday is beyond every word could be described.
This film is just too cruel to watch.....

Having grown up in Palos Verdes (Estates, specifically) I had only a cursory interest for giving this movie a chance. Nothing new here in the insulated enclave which has become a house-flipping real estate orgy for millionaires since the 1980s. Dysfunctional families, drug addiction and suicidal teens, along with territorial surfer thugs were as prevalent here as its sun drenched environs during the Sixties and Seventies. The novel inspired the movie and seems to have been adapted well enough. Though I just couldn't wait to escape, invoking the same feeling I had as an adolescent.
This movie is pretty depressing. I guess that means it's pretty realistic if played true to form.
Functional family becomes dysfunctional family and breaks apart. Pretty ho-hum all around; however, Jennifer Garner is excellent as a bi-polar mom dealing with her crumbling life. The rest of the cast turn in decent performances but Garner shines and proves she's a really good actress.
When the situation at her idyllic Palos Verdes home turns volatile, young Medina attempts to surf her to happiness
This is much more than that. Jennifer Garner is amazing. Deep and insightful movie. To think i was just looking for a surfer movie.
