Into the Deep

Two girls and a guy out on a 'disabled' sailing yacht. Someone is mentally unstable, but who? Ok, they had a budget and it would never win any awards, but not everyone can live in a Marvel universe. I've seen so many 4 rated movies, this one should be a 6, but it falls just a hair short. I think the protagonists do an acceptable job with their characters (and yes, the guy looks a lot like his sister). I stuck with it because I did get vested enough to want to know who the sociopath was. Colorful filming, pretty people, a little nudity, sadly no sharks, but a little blood, and a Disney ending (too bad). Quite watchable.

Too many bad decisions and inane activity that really doesn't make sense. It needed a more coherent plot and better dialogue. I don't know. Just another bla movie. The acting isn't bad. And the lead is really nice looking in a bikini. That's about it.

If you want to watch a low budget movie with characters you don't care about and a plot that is predictable... then this one is for you. If you want to watch a better "trapped on a boat" movie, watch Dead Calm or even Harpoon.

Writer David Beton delivered a rather generic script and storyline here for director Kate Cox to bring to life on the screen. And if you enjoy a good old fashioned thriller, then I am sad to say that "Into the Deep" doesn't bring the goods.

Sure, "Into the Deep" was watchable enough for what it turned out to be. Though it was a pretty straight forward thriller without any twists or ups and downs in the storyline. And a thriller without such things makes for a somewhat bland viewing.

I hadn't heard about "Into the Deep" prior to sitting down to watch it. As such, then I wasn't really expecting a whole lot, so writer David Beton and director Kate Cox had every opportunity to entertain and bedazzle me with this 2022 movie. Suffice it to say, they did not.

And I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in "Into the Deep", but I will say that the actresses and actors did perform well enough, given the circumstances of a subpar script and storyline. It was a relatively small cast ensemble, but they performed adequately enough to carry the movie being few in numbers.

For a thriller then "Into the Deep" just didn't make the cut. It is the type of thriller that you watch once, then shelf it and never take it out to be played ever again. A rather monotonous and forgettable storyline actually.

My rating of "Into the Deep" lands on a very generous four out of ten stars.

Awful in every way.. unsure why I continued to watch until the end.. I think I was just hoping something would make it worth the time I'd already wasted.

The acting was horrific, I felt like I was watching a high school drama in stage rather than a sky film!

The story line was pointless and not believable.. for example, why would you decide your going to jet ski out to a boat to take revenge when it was literally docked up the day before? Surely it would have been much easier to do that when attached to land... Also why tell the girl to get the flare when evidence was in the flare bag..? It literally makes zero sense.

Truely not even sure why I'm wasting my time writing a review about such an awful film too, but I think I just want to save people wasting their time!!
