Breakwater

Breakwater is about strong character, always fulfilling a promise, making food out of bad, and how being naïve can lead you to bad choices and negative outcomes.

There's a couple of twists along the way that you may or may not suspect are coming. But they liven up the film as it's pretty flat in terms of emotion and excitement.

The only character that really comes alive is Mena Suvari's barmaid, Kendra. The rest all fall flat for the most part but they carry out their roles OK enough to not make the film a B movie. Darren Mann is the exception, who's acting and affected voice just makes you want to scream at the screen. He was very badly cast for the character he had to play.

Nevertheless it's an easy watch that doesn't demand much from the viewer, the storyline is actually not bad at all, and production values were pretty decent. You will never watch it again, and it won't last in your memory, but you won't hate giving up an hour and a half of your time to see it.
