    Remarkable movie for the parents

    Its a nice touching story but not many will feel the same because of ignorant.

    In the middle of this movie, it started to become tense and dramatic. It hurts the eyes when it was near the end when everyone was sharing their stories. This movie also touches that family can be broken if they never responsible. When a close family member passed away, happened we cannot imagine all the nightmares and jeopardy that they face every moment.

    Almost all teenagers will still not know how loving their parents so they will not feel much about this movie until they themselves experiences this. A lot of parents especially in the cities, are too greedy, selfish and no self reflection because they kept chasing fame and too materialistic. Both parent work and neglect their children, thinking giving money and material can always surpass than accompanying their children at home.

    When something happen to their children, they start to realize what is more important but a lot of them still blame that they are never wrong because the family always need money to survive.

    When smart phones emerged and stabilized in the 2008, a lot of people start to hook onto their phones. These addictions created a big gap between family members and too many parents had neglected their duty to watch over their young children. So when accidents happened, it was too late for these parents to push responsible. Sadly, a lot of parents still stubborn to blame others faults and refused to accept their negligence and mistakes.

    Heartbreaking

    I have read news and stories about this tragic ferry accident since it happened in 2014. I deeply understand how the victims' parents and family members feel and I sincerely sympathize with their pain. I have always wanted to watch a movie about this but there's not many. After 5 years there's finally one. The last 40 minutes of the movie was so emotional and heartbreaking that I cried a lot. I think this movie is like a gift for the parents who lost their children in the accident and its sole purpose is to tribute to the victims.

    I don't think this is "too boring too slow" at all. Actually I was very sad when I read such a review about this movie. Either they don't know about this tragic accident or they have an extremely cold heart.

    Heartbreaking movie with real story 💔

    I think this was a great movie with so much emotional rollercoaster. Movie started with slow pace and ending half hour was full of emotions. I cried like a crybaby........

    Director did a great job, and all actors and actress did fabulous. They perfectly portrayed core emotion of this movie.

    Please was this movie. I highly recommend this who loves family melodrama.

    The actual birthday is moving

    This movie does not show a recreation of the disaster. Would have been too soon for the public. The focus is just on a family dealing with grief. The last part with the birthday is very moving. And the lead actress does cry very well. But the earlier part felt lacking. It would have been better to have shown flashbacks of the family happy then to get sympathy for the characters and the family unit earlier. It just seemed she was being difficult. And the father negligent for not coming back to comfort the family. The support of the friends is quite moving.
