Belated movie review: Open Water

[uspap]

Here's the movie plot for those who have not seen it.
Oh look we were left behind. They'll be back for us.
Why haven't they come back yet?
Still floating.
More floating.
(action scene) I love you. I love you too.
Munch. Drown.
The end.
Did I leave anything out?

How does one get underwater to drown herself with no weights no tank, and wearing a wetsuit? I almost laughed outloud when that scene rolled

Haven't seen it yet but surely there is something worth watching. Like the DVD Special Features: Cast and crew commentaries, the Making of Open Water or specially the Filmmaker Guide to Marketing a Movie?

If I told you there wasn't would you still end up watching it. Probably. I did.

OK, I won't bother to watch "Open Water". So what should I see instead?

Plenty of TV time with this cold...

Interesting reading on this forum about the event that supposedly the film is based on:

The Big Blue. ...if you can find it.

I reccomend:

Into the Blue (two word-Jessica Alba)
The Deep (two other words-Jacqueline Bisset)
Oh yeah, I think theres some scuba stuff in them as well.....

I like these two movies, most movies such as Open Water portray sharks as mindless killers who threaten the lead actors, in reality as we see in the Deep and Into the Blue, sharks usually only kill villans during moments crucial to the plot.
