Just goes to show that a dream can come true with enough faith, talent and (let's not forget) money. Despite destructive forces, you don't give up. You carry on with your dream and start again.

You know how within five minutes of starting a movie or book, you just know you're gonna love it ... and you're so glad you found it?! That's what happened to me with this movie. Don't know how I missed this wonderful movie when it came…

A thourougly enjoyable film about hope and friendship and love and the joy of unrealistic miracles happening. Of course there were bad guys in the movie too - those who stand in the way of progress and opportunity for disadvantaged…

Film can have beauty to it! "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen" is just that sort of picture. A real light touch. None of the characters is over acting. This is played so well that you think you have seen a real part of life. Is the story…

A romantic comedy about the failure of expectations and the need for hope and faith. Sadly, and I guess this is life, but the male lead character decides to leave his wife when it looks as though the marriage is actually salvageable- they…

Outstanding. It's about politics, office politics and affairs of the heart. As wall as the wish of an sheikh to help his people.

This was a little too twee and almost, might I say, insufficiently acted at times like the test film was used? It's light comedy of the fluffy variety, with a bit of tragedy added to give it substance. Ewan seems to be trying out his…

Far too saccharine for salmon. The only tasty morsel is Kristin Scott Thomas. // Spoiler alert: An upstream, against the norm, plot would have the troubled man work things out with his wife. Sadly, this movie relies on the predictable…

Ewan McGregor plays a nerdy scientific expert on fish is pressured into helping a Yemeni sheikh develop the salmon industry in Yemen. Emily Blunt plays an agent for the Sheikh and her job is to see that McGregor complies and the Sheikh is…

Great movie, funny, and well plotted. Get it! You won't be disappointed. The song that plays at the ending credits Where You Go by the Young Romans was a beautiful way to close the story.

Unusual story but totally delightful. Funny and sad. Great acting especially Kristen Scott Thomas. Just the right film when life gets too heavy and you want to see something uplifting and hopeful.

Very enjoyable mix of romantic comedy, political satire, and a liberal dose of idealism that make a fine feel good film. All the players did an excellent job.

A definite "feel good" film without being too syrupy sweet. Ewan MacGregor and Emily Blunt have nice chemistry, but Kristin Scott Thomas' supporting role as a busy-body government official steals the show. An uplifting little movie.

A very sweet love story. Fairytale, actually (i.e. = phony). I couldn't get past the lighthearted fashion in which they glossed over tensions in the Middle East, however. The premise was just too absurdly forced for the world we live in…

Low-key, nice story line, I enjoyed this movie and would recommend this movie all about faith, hope and love.
