LOW BUDGET WINNER
This brief (81 min.) movie deserves to be studied in film school as an example of what can be achieved on a small budget when you have a simple, believable plot, a couple of well-chosen actors and a good cinematographer. The plot: an attractive 30ish couple fly to an tropical isle for a brief diving vacation. When their tour boat accidentally abandons them due to a careless head count, they find themselves in the open ocean with sharks nearby. I won't disclose their fate, but don't look for a happy Hollywood ending. Pretty Blanchard Ryan and Daniel Travis are excellent in what is basically a two person film. Kudos to writer/director Chris Kentis.

silly film...
Yes, this was an interesting approach to filmmaking and needs to be recognized for that innovation, but the whole point of the movie was somewhat silly and concluded in a manner that somewhat insulted the viewer, leaving them feeling bitter about wasting their time watching it. The film was short and lacked real character development, which I think should have been priority number one for a film solely focused on only 2 people and their fates. I know it's based on true events, but overall it just feels like someone adapted a script from a newspaper clipping.
