Still reeling from the death of her father, a young girl spends one last summer at the Jersey Shore before heading off to college. But when her plans fall apart, the girl stumbles into a mysterious world of Russian sailors, highstakes gambling, and unexpected love.When the film was released Neil Genzlinger, the film critic of The New York Times, was critical of the actors experience, writing, The problem with having a bigname actor in your small film is that he tends to underscore the inexperience of some of your other stars. Thats the effect Paul Sorvino has in Greetings From the Shore, a watchableenough summeratthebeach tale billed as Gabrielle Berberichs first feature as writer and producer...until Mr. Sorvino, a real actor and a good one, shows up. He plays a downonhisluck fisherman who takes the girl under his wing, and he makes Ms. Shaw and some of the other cast members look like amateurs. The director, Greg Chwerchak who also gets a writing credit, doesnt help he allows several secondary characters to become thudding clichs, trampling the delicate story. ........
