For those of you who don't know the elegant and fabulous Bebe Pham - Vietnamese Supermodel Extraordinaire, this was her US debut. The suspense thriller takes place on the beautiful islands of Philippines. The movie started off a little slow but picked up speed, action and intrigue as the film progressed. I didn't notice I was holding my breath during the underwater fight scene! Mick Gleissner and Amelia Jackson Gray did a great job in their roles. Bebe could use a little coaching in the acting. At first I didn't care about her, but I did warm up to her her sister, played by Jaymee Ong. But this is more of an action film and I liked the underwater scenes in 3D.

Deep Gold is an easy-to-enjoy movie that is full of fun explosions, great diving scenes and gorgeous shots of paradise. The fun part is that it's in 3D. Not going to spoil the movie for anyone but if you are a fan of sexy Bebe Pham, you have to watch this: 3D BEBE in action: on land, diving, swimming, fighting (underwater). It's pretty cool. Lots of comical moments mixed in with violence and suspense. Not too much gore but enough not to bore. It's an overall fun movie to watch: admire the scenes, laugh at the comical relief, and don't forget to breathe when Bebe's underwater.

Deep Gold is a take on a classic storyline – lost gold and the race to find it – action scenes, beautiful girls and fantastic scenery. It's a visual treat.One of the great pluses is that for once, the running time is sensible. It drives me crazy that so many movies these days run close to two hours. The underwater scenes were on the dark side, made worse by the need to wear glasses for the 3D. Considering the cost and technical requirements that must have gone into them, the 3D undermined those scenes.Some of the supporting actors make for entertaining watching. Michael Gleissner played the duplicitous villain really well. Laury Prudent does a solid job, although I think there should have been some explanation as to how and why her character was operating a station on a remote Philippine island. Jaymee Ong and Amelia Jackson-Gray delivered the best performances after Michael Gleissner. I also enjoyed the performance of the actor playing the main Philippine officer.I think this is a great rental movie.

My wife and I saw Deep Gold over the weekend at the Crest Theater in LA. Being an independent film, you never know what to expect. We were particularly intrigued to learn that it was both an action film as well as a 3D film. (Perhaps the first independent 3D feature film ever made.) Both action and 3D are very ambitious attributes for they typically exceed the independent film budget. The script had some unexpected twists and turns that kept the story going. To be fair, it also had some minor flaws, but overall who cares when the screen is filled with attractive women and stunning views. Personally I think I would have enjoyed the movie more if it were not in 3D, but that is personal preference. Some of the actors were better then others, but overall way better then the average independent film. Michael Gleissner, who also wrote and directed the film, made a surprisingly good villain. The soundtrack was exceptional, plenty of action scenes, solid plot, and beautiful footage. Deep Gold easily exceeded our expectations, and unlike almost every major studio feature films today, Deep Gold never dragged and we were never bored. In summary, Deep Gold is a perfect film for a mindless weekend escape.
