Braking for Whales

It had potential to be beautiful. Instead they went for low hanging tug at your heart strings cheese. I wonder how much they paid the 5th grader that wrote it?

Cannot tune into the thumbs down reviewers !?

"Braking for Whales" is a wonderfully simple story of a brother & sister rediscovering one another after years of separation due to their willful and mistaken concept of one another. This is a charming independent road film worthy of being watched by all.

Director: Sean McEwen and Writers: Sean McEwen & Tammin Sursok have created a thoughtful and sensitive road story dealing with end of life issues and self discovery emotional conflicts. Actors Tom Felton & Tammin Sursok portray the two main characters perfectly.

The trailer seemed alright but the movie was so farfetched and ridiculous. I like Tammin Sursok but in this movie she was extremely annoying. I don't understand the random George W. Bush stuff in the movie. There was so much unnecessary dialogue and scenes that dragged on and on. Finally when there were 25 minutes left, I just started skipping ahead. I don't know how anyone could sit through this or give it more than a 4/10. I feel like the higher ratings are from people who worked on the movie.

I actualy loved this movie. Deserves a higher score on imdb. Very well done for a low budget independent movie. I loved both Tom Felton and Tammin Sursok in this.

I was already a fan of Tom Felton... and I have to say he always gives me different vibes with his characters. I never feel I am watching the same actor play different characters, but an actor embodying and becoming the different characters. It always feels new and different for me.

I also knew Tammin Sursok from "Pretty Little Liars", but I have to say that now I am going to follow her work more closely, since I actualy liked her performance here. She seems to be versatile. And she has a very likable quality about her. Who knew I'd be saying this about the actress that portrayed Jenna? Haha. I really like her acting.

Anyways, the movie is amazingly done. It is not a completely different storyline, but it has an original approach to it. And I never felt myself gettingg bored through the entire movie. It is a wonderful script, well executed, and with well cast parts. Thank you for this project.

It's an interesting movie. I loved Tom's acting and also Austin Swift! Wow!!
