Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

dearmond-2 When I walked out of the theatre with my two friends, my first comment was why can't Americans make good films like this? I have become so disgusted with about 96% of contemporary American films that I won't to to a theatre. This films the opposite (Yes, I know that kids won't like Maudie). Almost all of the positive user reviews capture what I feel. I do note that the fact the film does not tell us that her parents had died. What her brother did is in the film.The film tells that she had a daughter. It does not tell that her daughter was born out of wedlock and that her partner abandoned her and her baby. I feel this is just a tiny bit that comprehensively adds to the story. I don't understand why I have to go to film society presentations to see good films like this, but going to film society presentation is a much more pleasant than contemporary complexes.

lanckenj Most of the sentiments I feel about this film are already written in the many reviews here, so will not repeat. A great film, great cinematography and superb acting. In my you must watch this list.

suztach Sally Hawkins and Ethan Hawke are both fantastic in this film and their chemistry both in tension and love is undeniable. It also captures Nova Scotia with sweeping cinematography. Well worth a cozy evening.

jphill-03214 Sally Hawkins is every bit as good an actor as Daniel Day Lewis!
