    Warm thoughtful film

    I had the chance to see this at AFI festival in Dallas. The movie is beautifully shot, and some of the scenes along the Hudson are gorgeous. The story line is intriguing, and unfolds as the swimmer makes his way through the challenge of swimming the Hudson. As the first reviewer said, he has a tragic story that compels him to take on this feat. I won't divulge the details, but as his story comes out, it makes you think hard about some of life's issues. Definitely worth seeing.

    The dialog is also well-written. Although this is not a comedy, the dialog is often quite funny. Fiennes may have gorgeous eyes, but I thought Justin Kirk's character really stood out in the film.

    Great and Riveting to be sure, but...

    I'd say other have covered the ground in reviewing this movie quite nicely, so I'm not going to reaffirm the quiet and rather dark magic you can expect to find here

    But I do have one complaint that doesn't reflect on any aspect of the movie aside from some rather inaccurate editing. Let me say I've lived in Poughkeepsie and its environs most all my life. (Poughkeepsie, NY is located 75 north of NYC and 75 south of the Troy Dam where this swim begins.) So, here's the problem: The Hudson IS beautiful, no doubt and it does have tides, but it heads north to south; therefore you're not in Troy in one scene and Hyde Park at 80 miles south the next; you're not in Yonkers about 25 miles north of NYC in one scene and next at the Rondout Light at Kingston about 95 miles north of NYC. (There were many, many such examples throughout the film, and these are not necessarily as the movie might have ordered them.)

    So, why do that when all the showing the River in its natural ordering would have no affect on the story line and show off this River as it truly is and most likely most, if not all, reflect the actual filming order. Why? Sorry, just found it annoying having spent 8 years as a limnologist researching the River from Troy to the G. Washington Bridge at NYC.

    Stunning...

    This movie took my breath away. I LOVE Justin Kirk, that guy is amazing and he did not disappoint. I won't give away any spoilers but the story completely pulls you in and you can't wait to see what happens next.

    I don't know that I loved the sideline with Mary Tyler Moore. I can see its value but I just wanted to see more of the three core characters. I also think they could've done more with the storyline with Justin Kirk's character and the difficulty with his wife.

    This film is gorgeous to watch but will also stay with once the end credits are done rolling. Best to see it with someone so that you can discuss it afterwards!

    Heartwarming, haunting story of man who swims The Hudson River

    This movie has a character who's very relatable, a character who wants to accomplish something great in his life, something he can say he actually "did." This is something many people wish they had the courage to do- to actually "do" something rather than just talking about doing it. It was inspiring to see it in this film. The cinematography is stunning and beautiful. That in of itself is a reason to watch this movie. Everything from the sound of lapping water to large cargo ships passing by all present a fluid and calming picture. I wont go into the storyline here, but suffice it to say it is satisfying and flows smoothly. The movie has bits of dark humor and funny moments, all of which elicited laughs. It's certainly not a comedy however, but these moments provide needed comic relief. Each of the starring actors gave phenomenal performances. Joseph Fiennes is remarkable as the haunted Paul Thompson, and Justin Kirk provides lighthearted relief as his friend, Jeff. Elizabeth Reaser complements the ensemble with more fantastic acting. Overall a great piece, with a strong story and strong cinematography

    Small and beautiful

    I love everything about this film. Dempsey's Pub is a special place - sadly closed down. The Hudson River and valley are special as well. The movie portrays them all understatedly and beautifully along with sorrow, loss, grieving, the sad truth of getting less mature the older you get, juvenile friendship, fun low key adventure and tons of great scenery. It was hard to find for a while but is currently on Showtime Anywhere.

      Jeff Kane: We are looking to buy a boat.

      Boatyard Owner: You sure can't have one for free... Ha-ha-ha

      [laughter, slowing turning into hysterical cough; also declining any help offer with a hand-sign. All shocked, cough lasts for about 20-25 seconds, and at the end, he spits out, saying:]

      Boatyard Owner: What kinda boat?

      Jeff Kane: [totally confused] What?

      Boatyard Owner: What kind of boat you're looking for?

      Jeff Kane: Oh... aah... smallest one you got...

      Boatyard Owner: Like a canoe?

      [laughing, accompanied with small, scary cough]

      Paul Thompson: A motor-boat... with a weak motor...

      Boatyard Owner: A weak motor?

      Jeff Kane: Weakest one you got.

      Katie: He's gonna swim down the river to the city, and we need to ride next to him. So, you know, just anything that you could put along the side...

      Boatyard Owner: You swim to New York City?

      Paul Thompson: Yep.

      Boatyard Owner: Some sorta charity type of thing? A dollar for a mile, or something?

      Paul Thompson: Not really.

      Boatyard Owner: Hmmm... Well, I got an old whaler, with an old 70-horse-power engine, couldn't outrun the turtle

      [showing them to the coast, to the boat. Small cough and all move towards the coast]

      Boatyard Owner: Twenty-four hundred bucks...

      Paul Thompson: [almost immediately] Sounds reasonable...

      Jeff Kane: Yea, I believe that's the going rate for all boats with weak engines.

      Boatyard Owner: You folks done much boating before?

      [small cough - everyone looking at each other...]

      Katie: Uhmmm... I have. I went to the summer camp on lake Oregon. We had a water skiing, sometimes they let us steer a boat.

      Boatyard Owner: Well, this boat couldn't pull the turtle, much less a skier.

      Jeff Kane: What's with the turtles?

      Boatyard Owner: [after a short pause] Piloting a boat is lot different from driving a car.

      Jeff Kane: But, it, uh... starts with a key, right?

      Boatyard Owner: Yeah. But it has no breaks for starters...

      Jeff Kane: Neither did my last car. I think we will fine.
