Review of The Surface

The Surface (I) (2014)
3/10
Treading in Water

I was looking for another movie with the same title, and the only movie that was reviewed was this one-,so, o.k.. I though I would give it a go! I did not know the motivation of Sean, at first I thought he was just going out for an afternoon cruise, and, of course, it was almost half-way through that you find he was planning to do himself in! This is the problem:we are not made aware of his angst, again, only after quite a bit of dialogue has been expended . This is also true of Kelly-it's (angst) covered almost superficially, so we don't feel his pain. All in all, this could have been a much better film had we been made more aware of their sense of despair and loss! The acting was top drawer and with a more in depth understanding of their plight, I would have rated it 7 stars.
