When a drama tackles with such a
important and difficult life subject as a somewhat forced adoption of a
stranded baby, the development and outcome of the movie must be heartmoving and
powerful. Everything else will be considered a failure, as is „The light
between oceans”.
It is a complete failure of adapted
screenwriting, not giving the convincing performances (Fassbender
and especially Vikander)
that will lead to a proper level of motivation, as well as the failure of
elaborating the viable dilemmas that are inevitable after such a plot layout.
Overall tempo will also be pretty much
tepid and almost no breathtaking turns will be presented in 140 minutes of the
movie, while the very end will be just completely immersed in pathetic.
„The light between oceans” is just a
poor movie based on a potentially great story.
