No true trout or steelhead fishermen would keep every single fish they would return most of them to the river so to me this movie doesn't make sense and whoever wrote the screenplay needs to do their research. I've never read the book so I don't know what the book says I plan on reading it. No true trout fishermen would keep every fish, especially fly fisherman. The fact that the movie depicts him killing every single fish and having this huge cooler full of trout is appalling to me as a trout fisherman.

Dull, boring, zzzzzz. Nothing happens. Only worth the watch for Amber Heard in her prime at age 22 when this was filmed in 2008 and the nice cinematography. Even the music score is boring. You have a violin, a banjo and an acoustic guitar. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

Gus is a young man who is tired of hearing his parents arguing in his family. He leaves home in search of peace and tranquility, slowly feels the need for friendship and meets neighbors and fishing friends. Where a friend discusses and gives books to study. A personal growth film, so it's a must see.

Gus Orviston (Zach Gilford) is born of an angling family. His father Henning (William Hurt) is a famous writer. His parents often argue over fishing. After one such fight, he leaves to fish on his own. He's taken with fish activist Eddy (Amber Heard). After discovering a dead body, he befriends incompetent fisherman Titus (Dallas Roberts). The biggest problem with this movie is the lack of hurdles. It makes the story without drama. There is never any obstacles to his family life or the romantic life. There is only one on-screen parental fight before he leaves home. As for the romance, it's cute and sexy but without drama. I don't see any over-arching philosophy being espoused by his non-struggle. This is the lightest of coming-of-age romantic movie.

i couple of days ago i found out about this film and saw it today first of all when i saw amber heard's name on it i did expect the film to have many reviews & thought it would be some famous movie i forgot to watch turns out when i saw this its very slow & its not something everyone would like to taste it has some nice dialogs,story & great visuals thats about it nothing more. the plot:Gus is a young guy who leaves his parents for the love of fishing he loves it with passion he discovers himself & finds eddy a pretty young girl who is very much different then himself. the cast:the cast is nice but the lead actor did good & i have to mention amber heard she is just sometimes a very underrated actress to me this role proves it she plays a very stubborn girl but full of life. the relationship of Gus with his parents is weak but when her mother punches him on dinner table is so unexpected i totally jumped on my seat plus there is one smooch scene of amber heard & no nudity here so beware i loved the river fishing scenes those are beautifully shot. overall if you don't have anything on your hands do watch The River Why 2010 my rating is 5/10.recommended

I'm only 9 minutes in to this movie , but in the first 5 minutes, why would she have got a shotgun and shoot the dog? Why didn't she just aim the gun in the air? That right there is animal cruelty and it made me sad. Isn't this supposed to be a happy movie?

I thought this was a good movie, in fact I saw most of it this afternoon and am watching it again in 20 minutes. I love fishing. I like parts of A River Runs Through It and didn't like others. Although A River Runs Through It was one of the single most films that brought fly fishing to so many people, I was left wanting more. I was already a fly fisherman before the movie, so I wanted more fishing scenes. The River Why was the type of movie I've wanted to see for decades. I'm 50 and still enjoyed the movie. I've lived in Oregon near Portland since 94 and this move was able to explain to my family back east why I now call Oregon my home. The cinematography was excellent and I give it two thumbs up.

"People often don't know what they are talking about... but when they talk about love, they *really* don't know what they are talking about. The one sure thing you can say about love, is that there isn't much you can say about it. Not that you shouldn't try - you can make analogies. Love is like a lot of things. One thing it's like, is a trout stream. Try to capture a trout stream with a dam, and you get a lake. Try to catch it in a bucket, and you get a bucket of water. Put some under a microscope, and you get a close up look at some writhing micro-critters. But a trout stream, is only a trout stream, when it is is flowing between its own two banks... at its own pace... in its own sweet way." - 'Gus' "The River Why" is a warm, charming, and hopeful movie. Disguised as a 'romantic drama', it is in reality a story of each of us - on our journey in search for answers to 'why'. Whether the questions are simple, philosophical, or soul-searching; whether they concern the parent-grown child relationship, love, angling for the 'perfect' catch, or the search for inner peace of our soul, this movie provides a microcosm of road-signs to help guide us along our way. I would like to thank all involved with the movie, and the book, for helping my soul find some peace & perspective, at a time when it needed it most. If you haven't seen the movie, or read the book, I highly recommend it!

the Acting is good, the filming is good but the plot, or should i say the plot depth is really about a emotional train wreck of a teen who can't have it his way at home and later finds love. As to all the comparisons this snoozer has in common with "A River Runs through it" is the fly fishing. The Main character Gus is a spoiled kid who thinks throwing tizzy fit and running away to waste his time is the manly thing to do. Feel sorry for the Girl, if you play it out in real life, guess what excitement she will be facing, a guy obsessed with fishing more most of the day. guess she'll have to be the bread winner so fly-boy can do whats important and fly fish all day. We shut this off after 25 minutes. We really tried to just let it run but we had more important things to do than waste more time on this lame rehash of "fit boy with angst finds love". I checked the spoiler box because some people think if you even say a persons name you have ruined the film. I actually prefer to know the full plot and ending, then I know what to look for. Hope I didn't ruin it for those who don't.
