Deborah Young Variety An engaging if uneven tale that outstays its welcome, Sonhos de peixe describes the life and loves of a teenage lobster diver from a poor Brazilian fishing village. May 23, 2006 Full Review David Walsh World Socialist Web Site There are clear and honest images in Fish Dreams. Things are not invented merely to impress or show off. We see people's believable acts and their believable consequences. Feb 14, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member HOUSE/TV??? An enjoyable/fun movie Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Saw this at the Film Festival. Great insight into the division between traditional and modern ways of life. Very lengthy scenes that needed some editing. Beautifuly filmed Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member I loved it. Great storyline and sound, combined with some beautiful cinematography. Good acting too. I enjoyed it. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Honestly? This movie was painfully bad. It had a decent script but the director messed it all up. Who shoots a fish gutting scene for 10 minutes but a character-narrative motivated scene for 30 seconds? Director tried all the wrong things. Cinematographer was pretty good though. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
