Luke Hemsworth’s range is a revelation. This is exactly the type of film that allows him to showcase those talents.

Luke Hemsworth plays Bosch, the father. He does a superb job of making this man seem real -- so much so I wish he did more roles like this.

I thought I could no longer be surprised by this film’s cheesiness. I was wrong.

For those yearning for that next coming-of-age gem, you might have to go elsewhere because Ocean Boy might have strayed out too far from land.
