Suspenseful and intriguing underwater thriller concerning an innocent couple, Chris Carmack, Laura Vandervoort, get involved in a search for some strange boxes located at the bottom of the sea. They are a pair of professional divers hired to find Columbus' hidden treasure. They descend deep into the big blue without the aid of any kind of breathing apparatus, though sometimes use scubas. While such exuberant optimism characterises the first part of this Hawaii-set thriller, but later on, a strong note of caution emerges and things go wrong.
An underwater thriller with action, fights, tension, violence and grisly killings. This is an entertaining seagoing adventure in which the ocean deep figure prominently, though this time guarding some sunken boxes. The action is plentiful with undersea excitement with terrifying underwater scenes. The briskly sketched roles and fantasy-led storyline have a B movie feel, brazenly supported by the camera's eagerness to exploit the actors' sexual charms. Made mainly as vehicle for the handsome, beautiful main stars: Christopher Carmack, Laura Vandervoort, and they show particularly in the technical excelence of the underwater scenes. They show off their considerable screen presence , both attracttive and slender. Lightweight entertainment notable for sunny outdoors and underwater cinematography, as well as Laura Vandervoort in a bathing suit , a glamorous bikini. In fact, Vandervoort's wiggling rear is the star of many an underwater scene. Along with them, other nice actors as Marsha Thomason, Michael Graziadei, Mircea Monroe , Audrina Patridge and Amanda Kimmel.
Gorgeous photography manages to keep this afloat with fab footage maritime by cameraman Thomas Yatsko. As well as pulsating and exciting musical score by Robert Duncan. The motion picture was professionally directed by Stephen Herek, though nothing special. Herek is a good craftsman with a long career, getting cinematic successes as Critters, Adventures of Bill and Ted, Professor Holland, The three Musketeers, Holy Man, Our little secret , City limits, Dog gone, Rock Star, and directing several episodes of notorious TV series as Mcyver, Hawai 5.0, Dallas, among others. Rating: 4.5/10. Average, but acceptable and passable at times.

i thought i would give this movie a chance because i must admit i really enjoyed the first. i went in with my expectations low and after the viewing i must admit i was'nt sorry. this movie is just OK. into the blue 1 was pretty good so a sequel was hard to do. the story was fine if not a little outdated and the acting was fine apart from a few silly actors letting the side down.
as u can probably tell there is not a lot to write about this apart from that if you enjoyed the first 1 then you will probably enjoy this as well...just not as much.
give it a try and let me know if my rating of fair or unfair;)

If it was for the actors, it is rated 8. Good choice, good looking, good acting. But for the writers? Well, more goof than good, and this is not a typo. You see a construct when it is coming. Is is like a simulation, in that the way and the end is paved within the book. But who am I to judge about other peoples storytelling? Who am I to demand a better story that better fits my very personal ideas? Right, no one. However, the scene that truly lead my opinion was at the hospital right after the rescue. In my very personal version of this movie, and this option will be available in some years provided by AI, the hero just punches the evil woman in the face right in front of all the witnesses. End of story, and they all lived happily ever after. Boring? Well, happy endings do not have to be boring. Who minds the young girl, shot to dead? No one, but me.
The picture starts perfectly and initially it was so excited but the main thing starts at the middle of the film, where the villains come into the picture. Initially started off after the villains come in is they wanted to search the Sand Cristobal which the hero and the heroine are searching for 4 years and after some time they turns the real story of the lovely couple into a disaster by telling what they actually wanted. But in the starting itself they will show us that two huge boxes are thrown into the ocean which is the main theme of the story. The villain people come to search them and take them home but ....
Cheers....
Cheers....
I started the movie expecting to turn it off because it was so bad. Instead, I watched to the end and quite enjoyed it.
It.is not a movie that requires deep intellectual thought and never aspires to be. Instead it is.a popcorn flick with good looking people searching for treasure and it delivers on this.
If you just want to spend a couple of hours enjoying something light and entertaining, this is a good option.
