Review of The Guardian (2006) by Ruba E — 30 Oct 2009
The Guardian is an interesting film that shows us how the guard rescue swimmers are trained (I don't think I've seen a movie that talked about this subject before) and it also shows the emotional side of losing a person close to you after all your attempts to save him/her and dealing with the aftermath situation.
Kevin Costner was great and Ashton Kutcher proved to us that he can act in a drama film quite good...the only thing I didn't like about this film is that it made me feel like it reached the end more than once, I mean after the students were graduated I thought the story ended but there was another chapter of the trainer and the student on a mission together and then again a whole scene of Kevin going back to rescue them...etc (i don't think there was any need for killing his character and I didn't like the whole talk of the legend of the sea who's saving people) but overall it's a good film.
