Me and the wife sat through this a few nights ago. Decent acting and scenery but talk about slow, we wondered why we'd bothered after. Then in the credits I saw it was based on a book by Tim Winton. Should have read that before then we would have given it a miss anyway. I've tried reading a couple of his books, boring as anything, like the characters in this film. At one point the lead actress says she can't live in a sad environment and then goes after a bloke who must be one of the saddest, most boring, depressed people on the planet. I was hoping a shark would snap them both up at the end to liven things up.
