Critic Reviews for Ocean of Pearls
All Critics (8) | Top Critics (6) | Fresh (3) | Rotten (5)
Overly earnest but engaging.
Ocean, smoothly directed by Sarab S. Neelam, mostly comes down on the side of tradition and, like Amrit, is dutiful and virtuous. And, like him, it's also a bit too well mannered to make a strong impact.
That Neelam was a medical doctor before becoming a filmmaker gives his picture its exceptional impact and complexity.
Rest assured that all is resolved with a minimum of muss, fuss and imagination.
It sounds heavy-handed, and it is. Although the film looks professional, it feels like a soap opera with a message. High marks for good intentions, but that's about all.
The acting here is surprisingly even and Neelam rarely betrays himself as a newbie behind the camera. For a local indie film, this Ocean is smooth indeed.
Audience Reviews for Ocean of Pearls
I found this movie interesting on several levels. 1. I love movies that revolve around medicine and the medical field. 2. I'm fasinated by different religions and cultures and this movie taught me a little bit about the Sikh religion and some of the abuses they endure.
