What people are saying
Updated nightlyPeople are loving this one. It’s a gentle, heartwarming story about an elderly widow, Tova (played by Sally Field), finding unexpected connections during her night shifts at an aquarium, and Field’s performance is basically the entire engine of the film, she’s universally praised for carrying it with warmth and depth. The supporting cast, especially Lewis Pullman as Cameron and Alfred Molina voicing the octopus Marcellus, gets strong marks too. While some find the story a bit familiar and the pacing slow, most agree the superb acting and the charming, visual appeal of the aquatic setting more than make up for it.
