As Good As It Gets

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I liked the movie. I know it's fiction, written with a script, but one thing doesn't make sense to me.....They wanted the gold and the drive shaft, so they put the gold on the drive shaft. They were having a hard time reeling it in, because of the weight....so here's my question: SUPPOSE THEY DIDN'T NEED THE DRIVE SHAFT.....HOW WERE THEY PLANNING ON REELING IN THE GOLD?This review doesn't contain enough lines so I'm adding this just for the purpose of minimum lines requirement: The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe First Published in 1845 Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. " 'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door; Only this, and nothing more." Ah, distinctly I remember, it was in the bleak December, And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly I wished the morrow; vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow, sorrow for the lost Lenore,. For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore, Nameless here forevermore. And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain Thrilled me---filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before; So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating, " 'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door, Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door. This it is, and nothing more."

I am a Technical Deep Diving Instructor. This movie is a dismal attempt to recreate a deep sea diving instance with horrible script and a screen play. People involved did not consult experts who could have saved their asses in this plot.Very bad acting and major holes in the plot.Come on guys, at least get your act to gather.Very bad story line. Not well thought of!You need to do better than this.You guys are challenging the intelligence of your audience.Come up with a decent story and people would watch it.There is a reason why your movie only made Worldwide:$1,171,559 (http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=blacksea.htm).How much did you guys spend making this piece of garbage?

After a former submarine captain Robison (Jude Law) loses his job, he is recruited by a questionable backer to lead a deep-sea mission in the Black Sea in search of lost treasure. Robison gathers former out of work friends and old cronies to take on the task. But the hard-bitten crew argue over getting a rattle-trap submarine to make the dive in with little or no security of returning to the surface. Half of the crew will be Russians and the only thing temporarily holding them together is equal shares of the payday. But are they really diving for salvage or the rumored gold bricks? Things become perilous when the sub sinks to the bottom. Quarrels break out and the mission is in dire straits.Moody and tense. Law is really good in this role. A lot of the characters are not worth caring for their survival. If you have a thing for submarine flicks, BLACK SEA (not really filmed there) is worthy of a watch.Also in the cast: Karl Davies, Daniel Ryan, Konstantin Khabenskly, Tobias Menzles, Michael Smiley and Scoot McNairy.

There's a fabled Nazi U-Boat down in the depths of the ocean, aboard is gold, lots of gold. So it's time for a not so motley crew of submariners to go forth - in an antiquated submarine - and try to set themselves up for life. Naturally nothing goes as planned, there are hidden agendas, rival factions within, claustrophobia reigns supreme, will anyone survive? Will you want any of them to survive?Black Sea is not without problems, though the complaints about credibility and believability not being available? Well these are surely from folk who don't watch enough of, or understand the workings of, genre cinema of this ilk. Kevin Macdonald (director) and Dennis Kelly (writer) have crafted a tight and efficient submarine thriller. Characterisations are clichéd, with nods to other genre type of films evident, but the group dynamics pulse with danger and the inevitable peril sequences strike the requisite suspenseful chords.Black Sea doesn't define or reinvent the submarine thriller wheel, it just keeps the rotor shafts turning. Strong casting and earthy photography help matters, to make this - ropey accents aside - better than a time waster of a viewing. 6.5/10
