Movie Reviews of Treading Water

Movie Review: Best Ever
Summary: 5 Stars

This is my most favorite film. I have owned it for not even a week now and probably have watched it around 10 times. I know that it sounds like obsession, but its not. I loved it, love it! I watched it with my girlfriend and the story plot is so much like our lives and situation. Im Casey and she is Alex. I have an upper-class dominating family that is awful towards my girlfriend, but yet I cant just kick them out of my life. I love the intimate realtionship that Casey and Alex have. I also love to watch this movie with the commentary: Lauren, Angie, and Nina are hilarious but I love it. Angela Redman is now my favorite actress. Im ready to see more moivies from Lauren Trimmel.

Movie Review: Beautiful love story between beautiful women.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is good film based primarily on the two main actresses. While the storyline can be frustrating at times, it is revitalized each time beautiful Nina Landey (Alex) is on screen. The two women have great chemistry that makes you enjoy them without needing them to be explicitly sexual. The movie will not give you a nice Hollywood ending, but shows you that true love does not end because of a dissaproving family. This movie can be very true to life, and is best if the viewer focuses on the bond of the two main characters, not the problems of the family. Overall, a nice, realistic love story that I would recommend.

Movie Review: A WONDERFUL LOVE STORY!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I really enjoyed this film. The lead actresses were excellent; great chemistry together. I am adding this film to my collection.

Movie Review: Under Promised & Over Delivered! Very Enjoyable!
Summary: 4 Stars

I read several reviews written here prior to watching this movie. Most of the negative comments pertained to the technical aspects of the film...the abrupt scene endings, some scene lighting etc. As a result, I did not watch the movie with great expectations but in the end I was pleasantly surprised! Nice story line and I found all the characters very believable. In fact, the mother, as eccentric as she is, reminds me of someone I know who is virtually the same way!

All the actors and actresses are very easy on the eyes. The love scenes were not explicit, nor did they need to be...I just prefer love scenes to show a little more skin and to be a bit hotter than these were. That is just my personal preference and why I rated it 4 stars instead of 5.

There were a couple of issues that were inferred but not completely clear, like the relationship the brother (Shawn) had with his friend. I think there were gay undertones in that friendship. You will have to decide from what you see. Perhaps that was the Director's intent, to show the conflict the mother has with the daughter...would have been the same with the son had his friend lived. Thought provoking.

Overall, a very enjoyable movie. Don't think it is one I would keep to add to a collection, but it was a nice way to kill 90 minutes.

Movie Review: Very enjoyable
Summary: 4 Stars

I read the mixed reviews on this movie many times before actually ordering it as I was undecided since the reviews were all over the place. I decided. I ordered. I watched. The end result - it's a very, very good movie. I think what makes it work is the couples relationship. It's very real. It's very genuine. It is quite refreshing to actually see a movie where 2 woman are already involved, where they start out being gay... with no typical "I'm going back to being hetero" ending! The drama of the family situation is intense, but there is quite a bit of comic relief played by the friend Carmen. The love scenes are simple and tender. The plot is heavy. The acting is not overly executed but you find yourself being drawn to the women, their story and shared love. I'm happy I stumbled across it. If you are not a true movie critic or critic in general, you will find yourself enjoying this movie for many reasons, many times over.
