Listen to Your Heart

I rented this movie this past weekend and was a little skeptical about it. Here we go another love story..... Surprisingly, I found myself really enjoying the story and the characters. This was a movie that really makes you stop and think about life, love and the choices we make in our lives. It makes you stop and reevaluate the choices you are making and think about what really makes you happy instead of typically doing everything that you are supposed to do or doing everything that makes everyone else happy. The characters are very easy to like and relate to. Danny, the lead male character....well, you can't help but fall in love with. He is sweet, caring and let's face it...not hard to look at!! I think the actor did a great job portraying this character. He made me want to be a better person. I thought the actress who played Arianna did a great job as well. i am sure playing a deaf person has its challenges, but she did a fantastic job at it. The supporting cast was very good as well. Roger and Tony were very enjoyable and added some good laughs throughout. Overall, I would recommend this movie. It's a perfect date night movie or feel good movie to watch over the weekend!

I saw this movie just last night and I absolutely loved it. :) I was really surprised how taken back by it I was. Before I began to watch it, I saw it had a decent 6.8/10 rating on IMDb, and anything 6 or higher I'll watch. I really grew to love the characters. The relationship between Danny and Ariana is just beautiful. I'm a guy, so I'm not going to comment on the male lead actor's looks. Now the actress who plays the female lead, is so cute and beautiful and gorgeous, but not just that...throughout the movie, she just does such a beautiful job at connecting and developing her relationship with the male lead. I basically just loved how they were both really nice people, very sweet individuals, they weren't criminals or anything, it was such a sweet story. It's like a really smaller scale of The Notebook in my opinion, that's the quality of the film in my opinion. Not only did I grow to love their relationship with each other and how they treated each other, but I just really loved the actress and how she portrayed her character. She was so cute throughout the film that I cried a little. That's how much I enjoyed it. I would love to see her do more romance films, or even bigger films too, I see a lot of great potential for the both of them. :)

What a wonderful story! Very touching story about true love and true friendship. The fact that the main characters are primarily unknown makes the story feel more real and you feel so connected to the characters. The music is also perfect! Very moving! He made the music for this movie and incorporated the songs into the story. My wife is deaf and I am hearing and this movie hits so many moments that I can relate to. This movie will always hold a special place for me. Don't want to give too much away. So watch this movie. It's a tear jerker. Actually watching it again right now which inspired me to write this review. Enjoy........

I was looking for movies to watch and somehow stumbled upon this movie and I am glad that I did!! What an excellent movie...I experienced all emotions when watching it. It made me feel like nothing is impossible, that you have to fight for what you want and believe in and don't let anyone or anything get in your way!! It is a movie that I will definitely watch again and highly recommend!! I hope he produces another movie as incredible as this one was!! I was very sad with some of the parts of the movie but the way the writer wrote it, you were able to feel happiness right after your tears. The actors did an excellent job as well, its really hard to say anymore without there being spoilers so I guess all I can say is watch the movie, grab a box of Kleenex and live each and every day to the fullest!!!

I know this movie may be stereotypical or cliché'... But it's a movie isn't it? Movies can be a variety of things from fantasy to real life portrayal. And I feel sad for those who did not think fondly of this movie because it's not about what or how the movie is done but the message and moral it is trying to demonstrate.

In regards to the deaf culture (someone else mentioned about ASL and the interpreter)... I am deaf, completely. The movie is not meant to share with the world about the deaf community, but rather the effort that the hearing world should try to understand. It's a matter of being objective than subjective to the world around us.

With regards to the movie and sign language... Keep in mind that Sign Language changes almost constantly depending on the location. An example is the sign for "restroom" which could mean "toilet" in one area while it means another in another area.

As for the interpreter - keep in mind that interpreters are meant to match the signing level of their clients, you don't want an advance interpreter signing for someone who just learned the language... It's like saying the word "Educational Institution" to a kindergarten rather than saying "school" ... you get the idea...

If only you can understand the meaning of the movie and try to put yourself into their emotions and feelings... you'll enjoy the movie.
