“Float” (**1/2 out of four) was a mildly endearing love story about a young Asian-American woman (Michelle Krusiec) who is saved from drowning by a Caucasian dedicated lifeguard (Robbie Amell) and they unexpectedly fall in love and start to develop feelings for one another, despite their cultural and critical differences. Moments of effectiveness and insight are offset by film’s meandering nature and predictability that dwarf its overall absorption. Both Krusiec and Anell are strong and have good chemistry together but are unable to keep film sustained and “afloat” for film’s running length.
