The scenario has many plot holes in a lot of places. The general idea for the movie is good, but the action and performances inside the film seems poor in my opinion. I would almost say difficult to watch after an hour or so for some people. Give it a try if you want but don't expect anything above average.
What a stupid story with terrible acting. Nothing more needs to be said.
When a movie has to resort to sex as flypaper, your scenses should warn you it's a shallow movie - and it is!
-Acting: not so good
-Goofs: way too many, like let's not draw attention, by the way is this an Ak-47, fires a few rounds - wow cool.
-Plot: two couples on a sailboat finds $50 mill when diving, we're rich... we just have to....
-GreenScreens: way too obvious!
If still a teenager hungry for light dressed actors, and easy chewable «action» you might last till the end, but anyone above 20 who manages to see the entire film, wow gratulation - I went for a hike instead!

The scenario has no idea at all beside bad acting. If you spend a lot of yime trying to find something enjoyable in thus movie, you won't.
We need someone to root for. We can root for good guys, like heroes in action movies. We can root for bad guys, like Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. But we need to root for someone. We need someone we care about.
This movie has NO one we care about. Four argumentative repulsive dimwits find $50 million. They decide to steal it. Watching the four of them die in a hail of gunfire is the best we can hope for.
They are pursued by corrupt DEA agents, led by an argumentative repulsive dimwit. She wants to steal the $50 million for herself. Watching her and her corrupt henchmen die in a hail of gunfire is the best we can hope for.
The $50 million belongs to a drug dealer. Watching him and his goons die in a hail of gunfire is the best we can hope for.
And that's the film. We're watching in the hopes everyone gets what they deserve. Only there is no one trying to give it to them. There is no protagonist.
Three stars for the temerity to release a movie where Steve Gutenberg is the best actor in the cast. Minus one star for a screenwriter who doesn't know the basics of the craft.
Two stars.
