(T)his may be one of those achievements in human endurance that doesn't elicit cheers, but sneers. It's just too picture perfected to be powerful.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jul 12, 2009

A vanity project...[but also] a sincere love letter to sailing, as seen through the eyes of a handful of very lucky youngsters. [Blu-ray]

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 28, 2009

Any time...personal history is touched upon, it is quickly shoved under the carpet in favor of yet another sailing montage, complete with compulsory sunset.

Morning Light fails as film or 온라인카지노추천. It's essentially a vanity project for sailing enthusiast Roy E. Disney.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Nov 7, 2008

This flat, uninspired sailing documentary from the Walt Disney studios has surprisingly little to say.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Oct 23, 2008

All good intentions aside, Morning Light is nothing more than a glorified television documentary.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 21, 2008

| Original Score: B+ | Oct 18, 2008

The film may interest sailing enthusiasts. For the rest of us, Morning Light is a yawn.

| Oct 18, 2008

It's just so Disney. It could make you very cross.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 18, 2008

Morning Light is a sunny, saltwater-splashed tale of inspiration.

| Oct 17, 2008

The documentary is enjoyable, though it could have been edited more tightly.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Oct 17, 2008

For those who love sailing, Morning Light will confirm their passion and please them right down to their Top-Sider encased toes. For the rest of us, this sailors' tale just smacks of naval gazing.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Oct 17, 2008

If you don't speak the jargon of sailing and racing, most of the conversations between teammates mean very little. Impenetrable editing reduces the action to a meaningless blur.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4 | Oct 17, 2008

It's extremely good at communicating the joy of sailing, of putting its finger on the unique aesthetic appeal it offers its addicts and of making us believe that it is a precious gift that will enhance the future of these young people.

| Original Score: B | Oct 17, 2008

The camera can only film the on-deck action from so many angles before it gets repetitive. The musical score is pabulum. Race technology and tactics are barely explored, and you never get a sense of the larger field of competitors.

| Original Score: C | Oct 17, 2008

The aristo-brats are required to jump into a swimming pool and tread water for five minutes with their shoes on. Horrible! Still, one of them nearly drowns, proving that he shouldn't be allowed near a body of water larger than a bottle of Poland Spring.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 17, 2008

These eager young amateurs have the kind of passion nobody could fake.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 17, 2008

If the makers were hoping they'd chronicled a metaphor for life's struggle, they probably weren't counting on the struggle being monotony.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 17, 2008

A beautifully photographed documentary about a group of freshly scrubbed youngsters coming together for a grueling sailing competition.
