Review:
This movie was released in the year 2016.
For someone who does not really like romantic movies and tried this one, I knew there was a reason.
Maybe because I did not really like romantic movies that it made me looked at the movie differently?
First of all, the actors? Amazing. They all acted superbly and the scenery is simply awesome and beautiful. The love between the couple is depicted tenderly and beautifully. The way that Isabel's pain was palpable. It is truly painful to have two tragic miscarriages.
Michael's character is restrained and believable. His character's morals are evident without any preaching. But like, why did his character fell so fast at her? Because of her charms, he suddenly fell in love and he took her to his solitary lighthouse. And his lover... The character, as time passes by, became selfish and cruel. Was having a miscarriage can affect someone so much that she just swooped someone's baby and made another mother like her feel the same pain on losing a child? She then manipulated her husband and forced him, against his conscience to lie that "their" baby is really theirs. Like... Why? Why? It was... really hard to watch that part.
Would you recommend this to other users? It is up to them if they want to watch this movie that is made by Disney. People have different tastes, after all.
