Floating

I was surprised at how well acted this film is. Norman Reedus is fantastic, as is Chad Lowe. The subject matter is intense, and sometimes slightly overrought, but the film works enormously well as a study of two young men dealing with finding their own path away from their fathers.

I thought this movie rocked, particularly the strong performances by Norman Reedus and others. A solid, subtle script that doesn't try too hard or get too far in your face, just takes you where you need to go.

This movie is about as intense as an "after school special". Production values were good, as was the cinematography, but the story and direction are unbearably weak. I heard that this movie was actually produced by underground indie producer Steve Bennett, which is surprising because this isn't his type of movie at all.

FLOATING is the dramatic tale of one young man's struggle to overcome the tough hand life has dealt him and about the friends he makes along the way. Well acted by Norman Reedus and Chad Lowe, FLOATING also sports a great soundtrack.

This was an excellent movie. There was some bad acting but it certainly did not come from Norman Reedus who I hope to see more from soon! This is a movie that makes you long for those great summers when you had nothing to do but be young.
