An okay movie overall though, memories of Mexican cenotes!!
I like the part toward the end when they are dividing up the gear they have left to try to swim out through the underwater tunnel and the one guy turns to the other and says: "Here, you get the oxygen bottle with no regulator" the other guy: "Cool"
The exploding scooter and resulting MASSIVE displacement of water was way over the top

That was pretty funny.
How 'bout the way they can all talk with a reg stuck in their mouth without any apparent comm system? LOL
For the record, I did enjoy the movie. If you like trashy action flicks, well, this one's plenty good for me coz I get to do some vicarious diving.

Yah, I found that part really funny. I kept wondering to myself how they would work a com system via a standard mouthpiece, and be able to speak perfectly clear sentences. And what the heck was that flashing red doomathingajig infront of their nose?? :06:
I wouldn't say I enjoyed the flick, but I didn't despise it neither. I am glad however, that I didn't PAY to go see it.

The problem with any movie that features 'specialty sports', for want of a better term, is it is never going to be aimed at those who participate in said specialty sports. (The Endless Summer being the exception). It has to sell to Martha and Sam in Witchita, Kansas. If you made a movie that hardcore divers loved, it would fail at the box office. Any climbers notice that Piper Peribo can cut a rope, fly 40 ft, and stick to a cliff face like Spiderman?
It's just a movie, they got the frog kick right. I do want a Scooter/Torpedo, though, never can tell when that might come in handy.
I've said it before, I wonder if Astronauts pick 'Star Wars' apart as much as we do diving movies.

i know it's just a movie but we need to have some fun today!
(Come-on guys! BTW- My fav part was when the girl climber kills the creature with a flamethrower... for those who haven't seen it - there's more than just one creature.... and then she dies. She was tough!) LOL!!!
