Summary: Compared to Others, it has A Really Good Ending
Review: Deep End of the Ocean is about a mother who goes to Chicago with her 3 young children for a class reunion. But while she is paying for a hotel room, her 3 year old, Ben, is said to have wandered away and she becomes extremely stressed. Nine years later, they moved to Chicago and Ben shows up without even knowing that that's his family. There is many twists and tuns in this movie and I really enjoyed it. You've got to see it!

Rating: 3 stars

Summary: michelle pfeiffer's greatest performance to date.
Review: i loved the movie and the book. michelle pfeiffer's preformance was reason enough to see this film. this movie made me cry, so did the book. jonathan jackson's physical resemblence to pfeiffer made it believable that he could really be her son. when pfeiffer cried in this film she made me cry along with her. this movie is worth seeing(take it from me i've seen it twenty times)

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Surprisingly BAD
Review: I must say, after watching this movie, I was looking forward to reading some hilarious amazon reviews that would rip it to shreds....however, it seems that most of the reviews were written by people that liked this movie. All in all, it was AWFUL! The actors, some of whom did a fair job, suffered from the terrible script. Who wrote this movie anyway? Most of the dialogue was so unbelievably generic that it could have been written by fifth graders. I'm not really sure why Michelle Pfeiffer would waste her time with this movie. Unfortunately, she had to look as sad and vulnerable as possible in nearly EVERY scene--this became OLD FAST. Whoopie Goldberg as an agent of the law? Treat Williams, not a bad actor, also suffered from his horrid lines. I kept waiting for him to begin chasing Michelle around the house with a butcher's knife yelling how it was really him that planned the whole thing. Then there's the oldest kid--all he does is WHINE his dialogue throughout the movie. And then there's Sam, the kid that was lost for so many years...he looked as though he was quietly plotting the demise of his biological family and just waiting for the right moment to kill them all. About the only role that didn't suck was the little girl, who mysteriously disappears half way through the movie, never to be heard from again. And then there's the costumes and scenery. I know this is supposed to be suburban chicago, and I love movies set in Chicago, but the wardrobe people apparently decided to dress everyone in the most cliched suburban way possible, actually they look like they're modeling the new fall wardrobe for some department store, and scenery....well you'll see what I mean. I haven't read the book, I must say, by the end of the movie, it seems like the writers either forgot what they were writing about, or the production ran out of money and had to end the movie the way it was. Remarkably, the longest any dramatic tension is sustained is for about two seconds, and any emotional interest in the characters is completely non-existent by the end of the movie. The chain of events throughout the movie is nonsensical and ridiculous. All in my opinion, of course.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great story, a great movie!!!
Review: I really liked this movie. All the cast was great especially Jonathan Jackson. I think they should have developed his character a little more and I also hope to see him in more stuff in the future. I thought this movie gave a good describition of what that kind of situation would be like. I would definately recommend this movie to anyone.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: WHAT ABOUT THE MUSIC?
Review: I saw this movie about 3 times and each time I found things that I missed in previous viewings. I have also read the other reviews of this movie and surfed the websites for this movie, but no one mentioned the beautiful piece of music at the end of the movie as the credits were displayed. What was that piece and who composed it? Music has an important part to play in any movie and the music for this movie has been thus far ignored by everyone connected with this movie.
