Review of Walk on Water

This is a well acted movie with some great dialogue at times. It starts out searingly too...What keeps it from being really good is the ribbon-wrapped epilogue....it really sugar-coated something that ought not have been. They could have cut away with the lead breaking down, or something more subtle - not happy-ending time. There was some very poignant dialogue here and there, and also noteworthy was the international feel of the film on location. However, the camera work at times was shaky and distracting, causing me to wonder if it was on a tight budget. Had the movie had some better camera work and lost the contrived epilogue, it would've been a superior movie. Nonetheless its still pretty good - the unsure friendship between the leads and the important social issues are dealt with well. So forgiving the very end - it is recommended.
