User Review
How does this movie have a user rating of 2?
Rating: 8/10
I took my daughter 5 and son 8 to see Aquamarine yesterday after
school. I didn't go in expecting to see an Oscar worthy movie as many
who rated this movie must have. Both of my kids really enjoyed the
movie and I did as well. I thought the plot was good and the acting was
pretty good as well. I liked the magical feel that this movie had and
at least it lets kids use their imagination instead of just the same
old boring stuff. How Aquamarine could ever have a lower user rating
than Ultraviolet is a crime against humanity. I am glad that several of
the user comments that I have read appreciate this movie for what it
is, a movie for your kids and that the parents will enjoy also.
