This is a really beautiful film. One of the best ones I‘ve seen in a long time. Amazing story, brilliant acting and great music makes this a must-see for everyone.
Wow! I completely understand before watching this movie that won several awards, particularly multiple Oscar Awards. I did not expect this movie to be this good. This film moved me in all types of unexpected ways. Superb acting. Words do no justice to this brilliant film. Do yourself a favor and watch this film!
Amazing movie. It even made me want to learn sign language.
I have never seen the original, but I loved this movie so much, I'm sure I'll love the original even more so.
Every time i watch it I cry
Wonderful movie... no words to say...
Emilia Jones and the main cast are awesome. What a brilliant film.
This was **wonderful!** It made me laugh out loud and got me all teary eyed. It was beautiful, light, and unique, and showed varying personal perspectives. I’m so grateful for taking down the random recommendation when I saw it or else I’m not sure I would have discovered it on my own. (Thanks, high school English teacher who will likely never read this!) The actors were so great! This film was so wholesome. My boyfriend seems to feel it was “too” wholesome, but I don’t think there’s enough wholesomeness in this world. I left it sitting in my queue intending to watch it again. I understand it's a do-over of a French film, so that one is in my queue as well!
WOW! This is such a moving film. There is so much to like about this movie. I followed Emilia Jones filmography to this after seeing her excellent work in LOCKE AND KEY and was pleased to see that Academy Award winning actress Marlee Marlin was also attached to this project. This movie is not just about being a CODA (Child of Deaf Adults) it is about a family in crisis, coming of age, finding yourself, following a crush but realizing a totally different passion, being unique, and somewhat isolated, in a larger community, struggling for a fair livelihood, making sacrifices and holding a dream. This film won four of the major awards at Sundance plus awards from 8 other media festivals/entities (and now, all three of its Oscar nominations, including BEST PICTURE). I give this film a 10 (excellent) out of 10. [Drama, Music and Romance] and, in case you are curious, as I am, the final sign in the movie is a modified familial sign for I LOVE YOU (ordinarily the first two fingers are not crossed in this sign).
I got to see an advance screening of CODA and it was a beautiful story that pulled on the heartstrings. I loved the inclusivity- the deaf characters were played by deaf actors! Emilia Jones was a fantastic lead and her voice was beautiful. I already can't wait to see her star in more movies. I laughed, I cried, and I fell in love with this film.
