An Underwater Action/Adventure Masterpiece!
Pros: Stunning underwater cinematography coupled with a laudable plot effectively acted make this movie a winner. Cons: Predictable plot and stereotypical goon secondary actors give viewers a breath of B movie status. Bottom Line: Not bad, kept my interest, lots of bikini shots
Pros: Beautiful scenery, interesting story, pretty good acting. Cons: only my personal observations, which may not be fair. Bottom Line: Into the Blue would be a great movie for showing off that HDTV
Pros: Pretty original story, Nice scenery Cons: Some plot holes, obvious twists Bottom Line: Into the Blue Ray with Jessica Alba
Pros: Beautiful looking especially in Hi Def on Blu Ray Cons: Cliched plot Bottom Line: Blue Waters, Beautiful Bodies and a Few Modest Thrills
Pros: Beautiful scenery. Beautiful people. Not quite as predictable as expected. Cons: Not quite unpredictable enough. Little depth to the characters, many of whom are Hollywood stock. Bottom Line: Quest for the Zephyr
Pros: action Cons: average Bottom Line: Into the Blue - See Jessica Alba and Paul Walker Almost Naked
Pros: Beautiful underwater scenes. Some will like seeing Alba or Walker practically naked. Cons: Boring and drawn out. Flat characters I didn't care about. Bottom Line: Water Water Everywhere
Pros: Alluring underwater diving stunts and photographed sea creatures. Cons: Weak script, weak acting, lacked suspense...more... but it would bore you. Bottom Line: |
