Review: (#1) So we know the name of the film and who’s in it, sort of. While it might have some thematic relevance, it’s a lifeless and empty effort that seems a bit cheap.

(#2) Selling your swimming drama on its stars is a valid decision, but their weathered appearances aren’t engaging or compelling.

Trailer Rating: C+

Review: Taking inspiration from countless sports dramas, this trailer wants the attempts of a long distance swimmer to seem fresh and exciting, but never quite succeeds.

Oscar Prospects:

Annette Bening is being talked up as a potential Best Actress nominee and Jodie Foster could be a surprise competitor, but overall the film doesn’t seem like its poised for widespread acclaim.
