Though marketed as brain dead youth fodder, its even worse than it looks.

Walker is supposed to be lured by the buried treasure, but the actor, wearing Brad Pitts bristle cut, is like Pitt with his sexy appetite sucked out.
EW

The movie is written, acted and directed as a story, not as an exercise in mindless kinetic energy.

Which isnt to say that we dont form a relationship with these creatures.

Into the Blue may look good cavorting prettily on deck, but ultimately it deserves to walk the plank.

A film so boring, overextended and endlessly moronic that my high school called to downgrade my GPA for having sat through it.

Samantha (Alba) is his girlfriend, who doesnt seem to care that hes always broke.

A B grade joy as deep tanned and sun kissed as a Club Tropics promo.

Not a great movie by any stretch of the imagination, but certainly one that offers enough eye candy and cheap thrills to entertain...

Beneath the flashy surface it doesnt have a shred of intelligence, and it sinks in a sea of lame writing and laughable performances.

Its the kind of pic where the honest undersea treasure hunters are forced to work for a drug dealer.

As a tourism advertisement for the Bahamas, Into the Blue doesnt fare much better.
ReelViews
3.1
Ultimately, Into the Blue isnt nearly as bad as it looks, and those who considered Blue Crush a guilty pleasure will probably react the same here.

2.5
Too long at 110 minutes, the movie gets a lot more complicated with its array of peripheral characters. But its never very deep on characterizations.

Stockwell fails even to define major plot points, leaving us to figure them out later from the dialogue.

There arent nearly enough preposterous thrillers that involve gorgeous young stars wearing very little clothing.
Shadows On The Wall

I realize HBOs Entourage meant its Aquaman movie as a gag, but Walker coolly suggests that it doesnt have to be.

No Paul Walker movie should be more than 87 minutes long. Its just common sense...

There is nothing about Into the Blue that is going to arouse anything above the waistline, but director Stockwell makes a fair show of it.

This doesnt excuse the fact that underneath all the pretty faces and smoking hot bodies is a plot drowning in monotonous inadequacy.

However, director John Stockwell doesnt have that kind of script and he is burdened with co star Paul Walker (the dumbest actor on the planet earth).

They manage to throw in every possible underwater peril (except for giant squid) it gets to the point of being ludicrous, then keeps on going.

Scuba diving thriller with drugs, treasure and bikini clad flesh isnt especially deep or gripping, even with eye candy aplenty.

Into the Blue is such a smorgasbord of action, clichs, and bad acting, that it will make your head spin in ways John Stockwell wasnt counting on.

There must be an Aquaman movie in the works, because Paul Walker seems to spend most of Into the Blue auditioning for it.
