Deep Gold (2011)

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Wow! Such a good movie.

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

I didn't pay to watch this movie but i felt like they owed me money after watching this. i want 2 hours of my life back.and FYI guys, this movie is not a Filipino movie. it was shot in the Philippines which is why the scenery is not a disappointment, but the director, writer and producer is a crappy German.can you believe that this movie was shot for more than 2 years? complete waste of time, money and energy!worst movie everbad actingawful story

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.

The movie was quite entertaining, and the underwater action scenes were quite well done, but the CGI in certain scenes was definitely not at the quality level of the live action scenes (which were quite acceptable). Most enjoyable was the whit and comic relief some of the supporting characters provided. What I found quite bothering is the language mix of actors - some of them speaking perfect American English, some heavy local accents, that made little sense to me.The 3D was quite acceptable, although in some scenes it was clear that it was done later and the filmmakers did not shoot the film in 3D.

I didn't know what movie I wanted to see this past weekend, but after watching the trailer, I decided to check out deep gold. I have to say that I'm really surprised how good this movie was. I didn't know any of the actors or really that much about the storyline, but I was totally surprised, the movie ended up being awesome! Crazy car chase, and funny dialogue was on point. The islands they filmed on looked amazing, and added such a great backdrop.Also, I was super surprised that this movie was in 3D. I only thought mega studios like Sony or Warner Brothers popped these out. It was refreshing to see a smaller studio completing with the Hollywood big guns. Great weekend choice.
