Pluskylang Great Film overall
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
krocheav Great underwater Photography, great wreaks, great bodies but what happened to the story!. Years ago distribution execs (who too often came from selling baked beans or some-such) would have labeled this a good 'Drive-In' movie - now it might be called a good straight to DVD pic. This has it all: Too many murderous evil guys, too many unbelievable situations and plot lines, too many impossible underwater stunts, a plethora of scantily clad super slim gym junkie broads. All the essential ingredients for the look 'n see but don't use your thinking power set...while there are many to make up these audiences - from the look of the returns, it didn't seem to help all that much.The two leads are good enough Jessica Marie Alba looks good and demonstrates some acting skills. Paul Walker is about her equal (quite a pity he had a love of fast cars and was written off before his time). The rest of the cast vary between OK and down-right annoying. As others have also pointed out, the American classification folk sure got this wrong, PG this is not!: a heavily drug related story, some of the most grotesque violence and sexual innuendo possible - enough for an MA/R. No wonder we don't trust them to guide us anymore - time for a wake up call here. No real music score to think of just more boring pop songs to pad-out the action for a promo CD album. Sorry I got taken in by this tripe. The easily pleased will be kept amused - those looking for something to think about will end up with a headache. The only real plus I can give (apart from the underwater stuff) is a nod of acknowledgment to the anti-drug stance of the two leads, nice touch but not enough to save it from the rest....
Jorn van Zwanenburg "Oh my god, it's so beautiful" is what most people will say aloud during this movie. And that pretty much describes the entire thing.The always astonishing Jessica Alba, who is nearly the entire movie in a petite bikini(!) , and Ken aka Paul Walker can't make up for the complete lack of inspiration of this movie. They can both act, we know that, but the superficiality of the script doesn't allow for a lot of interpretation on the character part. "Yeah guys, you know the drill. Look hot and make it seem like your having a hard time in paradise." It's sad to see such a soulless movie trying to use aesthetics like the paradise it's shot in and it's lead characters to mislead the audience into thinking this movie wasn't a waste of everything involved in the project, your money and your time. The writers thought something in the line of this to be original: I'm super talented but no one values my skills so I'm poor, but do have the hottest girl ever because I'm actually super talented. Let's add some drugs and some guns. Ooeeee, let's add a random bad guy who looks like a pirate because he's on a boat. You know what, let's add another crazy hot girl and this one guy who annoys the Tish out of everybody and who's predictable, bad decisions are easily foreseen by the audience not to make it too shocking for them. BAM, movie. How peculiar, a flop, who could've seen that coming. Jessica Alba + bikini, wow. Just wow. Why can't she just be in a few proper movies, in bikini. She earned an extra star for this movie, because just seeing her move around the screen almost made this movie worth my while. But it didn't, it just sucked. Big time.
Jackson Booth-Millard This is not a sequel, but it is certainly a follow-up from director John Stockwell (Crazy/Beautiful) to his own Blue Crush, with another water based film, filled with a couple of girls in bikinis, obviously a good hook. Basically, in the Caribbean Sea of the Bahamas, diver Jared Cole (Paul Walker) and his girlfriend Sam Nicholson (Razzie nominated Jessica Alba) decide to take a diving trip, with Jared's best friend Bryce Dunn (Scott Caan) and his new selfish New York girlfriend Amanda Collins (Ashley Scott). After spending a little time in their paradise, they come across some pieces of treasure on top of some sort of ship or something. But then even more interesting, a crashed plane on the sea bed, and inside a whole hoard of cargo bags containing cocaine, but they are not telling anyone else about this until they find enough of the treasure to make their fortune, and they are ignoring the drugs. Slowly, they realise that their are people looking to take their hundreds of cocaine bags, and Jared and Sam's lives are in danger as suspected of thieving. They are on a race against time to make sure the shipwreck is found, and the cocaine stash destroyed, along with the bad guys, before it's too late. Also starring Josh Brolin (James's son) as Bates, James Frain as Reyes, Dwayne Adway as Roy, Tyson Beckford as Primo, Gill Montie as Big Dave and Chris Taloa as Quinn. Just like the near predecessor, the ocean sequences are beautifully filmed, and there are some good moments of diving and jet skis, and seeing the two girls, well, Alba more so, in bikinis, makes good viewing, but this film doesn't stay consistent. It is interesting for the first forty to fifty minutes, but then it trails into a boring non exciting crime thing, so while it isn't all boring, it isn't as good as the film that came before. Okay!
Angelus2 Jared is a diver who ends up in trouble with a drug-lord whose cocaine has ended up in the bottom of the ocean.This is average action movie, however I'm not sure I'd call it an action movie as there is limited amounts of action. The acting is, actually better then expected, but still poor....I mean Josh Brolin is in this movie...He raises the bar for Walker and Alba, who sink miserably.The cinematography was brilliant, beautiful beaches with wonderful shots of the ocean floor and the its amazing inhabitants...It was genuinely better than expected...I mean, you've got Jessica Alba in water...What else could you possibly want?
