Into the Blue 1 “Into the Blue” is an exciting nail-biting thriller about treasure, drugs, love, money, friendship and betrayal. 2 When I first saw the trailer, I can honestly say I thought ‘Nope, I definitely won’t like this film,’ but I couldn’t have been more wrong. 3 It’s not often a film comes along which is a combination of “Jaws”, “Pirates of the Caribbean” and “The Fast and the Furious”, but that’s exactly what this film is. A teenage film-fanatic’s dream. 4 Four friends dive into the shark-infested waters of the Caribbean in search of a shipwreck, which they believe will change their lives forever. Instead they discover a sunken plane of illegal goods nearby. The friends make a pact to stay away from the plane, but there’s always someone who has to ruin it for everybody. Very quickly the rivals want their goods and friendships are tested. 5 This film sees both Jessica Alba and Paul Walker in one of their best performances yet. They’ve played the same type of character in other films, but their fans will not be disappointed. 6 This film is gripping and well-constructed. When I watch an action thriller, I want to believe that something like this could happen in real life. I bet a lot of young people will relate to the law versus morality dilemma raised in “Into the Blue”.
