Salmon Fishing in the Yemen(2012)- User Reviews

The movie is not so much about fly fishing, as about social commentary and the so-called "romantic comedy." Nothing wrong with that, per se, but the trailer is misleading. The movie is fine with respect to landscaping, dialogue, production, and acting. All these are actually quite good. But the fishing aspect is only a hook to get you to bite...men. It's the story that hurts. Nowhere in the trailer do they tell you that the good Dr. is actually married, and that the failing marriage and budding romance is leading to adultery. If you still believe that marriage is worth clinging to, and that adultery is wrong and hurtful, then avoid the movie.
