Perfect cast and a good story

good film but with many flaws

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

it is touching and seductive and good example of great cinematography. it propose the admirable performance of Minh Ngoc Nguyen. it does , in delicate - precise manner, a remarkable mix of past stories, duty, sacrifice and love. it uses the right music for reflect the feelings of characters. and, sure, the right actors, the relation between Long and Ryan is the useful map for discover the strong links, the old plans for the future, the admirable build of details. the atmosphere, the story, the cultural-historical references, the delicacy, all each impose "The Golden Pin " as a special film. sure, for a part of public , it could be defines as too sentimental, like a form of soap opera. but it propose powerful scenes and the rules who define the genre are enriched by a rare flavor of image. almost a gem, it is not a bad idea to see it. not as a relation between two swimmers or as clash between duty/love, but as one of beautiful stories about the faith and the good/wise choice.
