Dive
right into the cool waters this summer with
the visually stunning, fast-paced film Into
the Blue. Here is a cool action-film full
of gorgeous underwater scenery, bronzed
bodies, and a nice level of free diving
adrenaline. Moral quandaries ensue, bad
guys get wind of the drugs, guns come out
and the plot thickens.

Hollywood hunk Paul Walker and gorgeous
bikini-clad Jessica Alba play a pair of
in-love Bahamas-dwelling naturalists; she
wrangles sharks at a local water park, he
shepherds tourist scuba divers around the
local reefs. Their peaceful tranquility
gets a jolt when a fast-talking buddy played
by Scott Cann and his drug-user girlfriend
come to visit. The four young divers discover
a legendary shipwreck rumored to contain
millions in gold at the bottom of the sea
and have reason to believe that their dream
of buried treasure has come true. The friends
make a pact to keep quiet about the discovery
so they can excavate the shipwreck before
a rival treasure hunter uncovers their secret
and beats them to the gold, but their plan
goes awry when they realize dangerous smugglers
are already closing in on them.
The film is based on The Deep, a 1977 film
that tries to capitalize on the JAWS phenomenon
of the time but disappointed audiences by
forgetting the sharks.
This version is a much more exciting film
and features shark attacks and real sharks
swimming amongst the actors. With the beautiful
Alba undulating through the water like a
mermaid, this movie becomes, in its own
unique way, a perfect 10. Ralph Lauren model
Tyson Beckford is suitably intense as a
shady club owner and Josh Brolin is a sleazy
boat captain.
Tune in to the exclusive premiere tonight
at 9 pm on Star Movies
