Deaf is beautifully directed, and the chemistry between the characters is natural and great, especially the two main characters, Angela (Miriam) and Hector (Alvaro) were well-acted and believable. Although it's not perfect and tried its best to make the story interesting, it's still worth a watch because of its uniqueness and the perspective of a deaf mother raising her child. For me, Alvaro's character and acting are bonus points that made the film enjoyable.

At first, it was slow and a bit confusing on what is happening, but I think maybe it is building characters and the relationship between two main characters, and in the end, I don't really want it to end. It is a combination of sweet, comedy, and sadness. It is not a kind of movie that you will watch it again and again, but the "Friendship" message does really hit you. It does not miss and go in vain.

However, when it's dark, it is much darker than any horror movies I've seen. You can't really see what's happening. (But extra points from me: John Magaro's voice in this movie is so smooth and even hypnotic, Lol)

I was so excited for this movie and I'm not disappointed. It was like being at Elvis' concert. Austin becomes Elvis and he wasn't acting at all. I learned a lot about Elvis as well. Austin and Tom Hanks did a brilliant job portraying the characters. I can't wait see it again.
