A very good movie to watch in 2021 with out any expectations, big budget, and no big CGIs. Simple story, brilliantly executed script, with a feel good ending. A must watch with kids.

Dennis the Miracle
kosmasp1 August 2021
To be able to make a movie work ... a movie like this that is, you have to have a miracle worker - no pun intended. And having Dennis Quaid who is able to play the grumpy almost completely dislikeable guy ... well you win already, because we know he can pull it off.
While he is not the hero of the story (or maybe he is for you), he is the one who seems to learn and change the most. And all that because our main characters are able to help him along (again no pun intended or in more than one way). This is a movie about goodness, about kindness, about survival and about life in general.

I Loved It! I have been going to Cabo since '87, so I expected schlock. This Is A Good Film!

I cheered, I laughed, and even cried. I was not expecting this film to have "impact." Great performance from 'Papa Omar,' and wonderful editing and writing. The film-makers did a great job telling a relevant and true story with all the fascinations of good versus evil and every moral point in-between; great father/son motifs, life/death motifs, win/loss motifs and excellent presentations about how we all get fooled by one extreme or the other. ENJOY!
I Loved It!

Solid job recreating a true story, which was great in real life
davesjbb31 May 2021
The real life story is awesome, not just an improbable victory, but one that benefits poor children in Cabo. Like it or not, it's a simple story with a predictable ending but you can't help but like it. Well filmed, adequate acting. The kids were great.
Fantastic. Refreshing. Beautiful

Blue Miracle hooks you up beautifully and toys a line of 'obvious outcome' for 90 minutes, while keeping you completely glued and emotionally invested. Jimmy Gonzales and Dennis Quaid are at the absolute top of their game. The story is told out fantastically. The movie and it's learnings dawn on you like fine wine on a Saturday evening. A huge plus is the perfect character buildup of 'Papa Omar'. The only drawback maybe is slight over dramatization of events. But hey, that adds to the goodness.
And when I learnt it was a true story, it gave me goosebumps. Watch it without second thought!

It's a true story and Omar and the boys make it so much more livable ! Gratitude when you have nothing, doing the right thing no matter what and importance of a Papa ... The movie has it all ! Great acting , beautiful storytelling and the locales !! Simply gorgeous ! Watched it with my boys completely worth it.
Refreshing

Transcends the mundane... no short cuts
samabc-3195211 July 2021
Based on a true story.. orphanage, fishing tounament... how one transcends the mundane... no short cuts.. at the end often it does pay off but sometimes does not... but again it is always about journey and experience after all....a great inspirational family movie that would help one unwind and contemplate ... Blue sky, blue house, blue walls, blue furniture, blue bedsheets, blue car, blue boat, blue cloths, blue marlin, blue miracle... ..
Brilliant!

Solid family movie
Andre9elton31 May 2021
If you are looking for a nice, feel good story for the whole family to watch, this movie is a solid option. It is not a Hollywood masterpiece by any means, but you will enjoy this film with your kids. The characters are likable and the storyline is one that you can get behind. It is based on a true story after all. It incorporates religion at times but is NOT shoving anything down your throat, which I think many viewers can appreciate. There are a couple moments of forced tension to add to the drama that probably should have been done away with, but overall this is an innocent family film that you can feel good about watching.
Beautiful and passionate...

Dennis Quaid (specializing in cute movies) is a great canastão, but Jimmy Gonzales, who won my heart with his charm and kindness, is a delicate film, biographies always leave me emotional, and passionate, who cares about technical quality when we can appreciate a beautiful history of generosity and determination, faith, and moving us, leaves our hearts warm... Beautiful and passionate...
Family feel good movie

Heart warming, not cliche, and inspiring!
jokejong29 May 2021
The way the movie is done is real, the color and cinematography is really nice, the script and story are solid and, I like the characters. Overall, the film has really some good production value. The soundtrack and the directing are great too! I think this makes one of the better inspirational real life movies in 2021. I truly enjoyed the moments watching the show and I think it's a great family movie to watch.

Fish On!
Slarkshark9 September 2021
A family friendly movie based on a true story. Some variations were done in the film compared to the real event, but that's generally always the case.
What was really interesting, was reading that the actor for Omar, Jimmy Gonzales literally had that rough childhood where he lived in foster homes, and was even a drug courier. I'm sure this role probably meant a lot to him personally.
The constant blue theme made for beautiful visuals throughout. And fishing as a whole is something I plainly just enjoy, so the whole concept of the film along with its messages was enjoyable.

So nice... hope and faith message
bethjazotte-609311 August 2021
"Milagre Azul" Todo mundo sabe o quanto amo filmes baseados em histórias reais. Especialmente aqueles que tratam de fé, de esperança, de amor. De crianças. AMEI esse filme e super recomendo. No Netflix. "Blue Miracle" Everyone knows how much I love movies based on true events. Especially those about faith, hope, love. About children. I LOVED this movie and highly recommend it. #movieslover #netflix.
A good family movie
