When they take some friends on an extreme sport adventure, the last thing Jared and Sam expect to see below the shark-infested waters is a legendary pirate ship rumored to contain millions of dollars in gold. But their good fortune is short-lived, as a ruthless gang of criminals gets word of what they have uncovered.

Really not a big fan of these type of movies, yet from time to time I do watch these action drama types that involve criminals and good against bad with plot twists of mind games! And this picture "Into the Blue" has all of that.The story is simple it involves a plane crash, and a ship or boat type that have sunk into the deep blue waters of the Bahamas, already present and living like two love birds are two straight arrow types Jared(the late Paul Walker)and Sam(Jessica Alba who's so cute and sexy!)who welcome some old friends Bryce(Scott Caan) and Amanda(Ashley Scott)who's morals are a little dirty and questionable.Along the way a tale of cocaine and treasures unfold with divers and drug dealers involved as it's high action and rocky drama on the waves of the Bahamas! Also Jessica Alba has a damsel in distress moment as she's kidnapped and taken hostage by the bad drug dealers as she has her mom taped with duct tape. Overall it has all the elements and themes of action drama movies like adventure and bad against good and rescue and the search for better goods! Give it a watch not really a bad movie and you will enjoy like me, if your a Jessica Alba fan.

I don't know why this film was given such a low score. Maybe the critics got confused and walked into a different theater and expected this to be a high brow or special agenda film involving an all boy romance. Obviously they were disappointed.But not me.I enjoyed watching this film. Its a fun film to watch and I probably saw this a couple of dozen times.Jessica Alba and Paul Walker look outstanding in this film. Not only are they at their athletic physical best but there is also a natural chemistry between the two actors that is hard to deny. They also do give convincing performances.The other two actors also do give credible performances.The only issue I have with this film is that - it could have been edited better. Starting the film on the "white whale" was a bad start. Somethings once seen are hard to erase from your mind. The script could also have been tighten up and better written to portray the dilemma the characters faced.I would honestly have given it a 8/10 but given the sad rating - it deserves another star.

I actually really like this movie because it has my cute ex-girlfriend's name in it as one of the main characters. Aside from that and it being really cute to watch together I can't give it a really stellar rating. I would have lost all interest about halfway through the movie when it hit a standstill trying to set up dramatic tension between the paper thin characters. It is also a very pretty movie with the setting in someplace I would love to go vacation along with gratuitous underwater scenes. This is the other thing that broke my suspension of disbelief, they are under water for way too long! Even with the professional diver background it seems like it was an unrealistically long amount of time between breathes, which is fine, but then the element of drowning is put into play later. I like the acting in this plenty enough, its just the story and motivating forces moving the character actions seem kind of weak.

I saw this movie today, after already reading reviews panning it; so I decided to watch it because I was bored and there wasn't much on television that hour.This movie is pretty alright, its not that bad as some complained but its really not that great also Into the Blue has great scenery, great cinematography, beautiful Caribbean setting, and splendid action. There was a LOT more action than I had anticipated in this movie. The drug-smuggling / underwater struggles / were wonderful.I enjoyed the ending of the movie, it had great action and I thought it summarized the whole film great. Though it was very predictable. The good guys win and the bad ones lose, that was greaattt!!! (tony tiger) This all makes for a good mixed genre movie that I think did it's job very well indeed: great entertainment!
