Into the Deep (IMAX)

Starring:Kate Nelligan
Director: Howard Hall (II)
Studio: Imax
Product Type: DVD
Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Unlike The Living Sea, its Oscar®-nominated predecessor, IMAX's Into the Deep confines itself to one location--the Channel Islands off the coast of California. But what a location it is! Directed by Howard Hall (Island of the Sharks) and narrated by actress Kate Nelligan, this exquisitely shot feature follows a number of the colorful creatures who live among the area's kelp beds as they build their living quarters, fight to protect them, mate, and die. Some of the more notable sequences include the aggressive mating dance of the fiery Garibaldi fish, the arduous molting of a lobster (captured with time-lapse photography), and the sophisticated synchronized movements of a school of silvery Spanish mackerel that sparkle and shine in the sunlight streaming in from above. Colors (especially reds and blues) that really pop, spare and unobtrusive narration, and a playful soundtrack make this fascinating film ideal for repeat viewing. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
Description
Filmed off the coast of Southern California, this fascinating film journeys to an enchanting underwater world of swaying kelp forests and glowing corals. Swim nose to nose with colorful garibaldi, starfish and sharks, play tag with sea lions, and observe the rarely-seen behavior of the creatures of the eternal undersea night.

About the episodes on this DVD.......2007-06-26
The episode Sinbad Sails Alone was on the DVD called Mover's and Shaker's so that is one episode that wont be on this one but A giant Problem is a possibility with this one , seeing that The Secret Of Snow will most likely be on the Super Secret Super Spy DVD that comes out in September.
looking forward to seeing these episodes!.......2007-05-10
Based on various Backyardigans fansites and discussion among fans on a mailing list, it appears that the following episodes will be included on this DVD:
Into the Deep
Sinbad Sails Alone
Newsflash
Catch That Butterfly
There's also a fifth episode floating around, called "A Giant Problem". I'm not sure if that might be on this DVD in place of one of the four titles listed above or on the next DVD.
There has been speculation that the following two episodes would also be on this DVD, but it sounds as if they will be on their own DVD released in September:
International Super Spy, Part 1
International Super Spy, Part 2
Two of these episodes aired in April (supposedly- we TiVo the show several times daily and never caught them) and hopefully the SuperSpy episodes will air soon (the first two-parter Backyardigans episode, based on the James Bond films)
Should be excellent! I know my 19 month old is psyched.

Stunning tropical scenery and gorgeous athletic movie stars may not make a movie great, but they sure don't hurt. Jared (Paul Walker, The Fast and the Furious) dreams of finding sunken treasure and making millions, but his girlfriend Sam (Jessica Alba, Fantastic Four, Sin City) is content with their poor but idyllic life in the Bahamas. Still, when they find artifacts from a 19th century pirate ship, she gets caught up in the excitement--until they also find a crashed plane full of smuggled cocaine. Naturally, someone's going to want that cocaine back... From there, Into the Blue is a surprisingly well-plotted action movie, unpredictable in its specifics if familiar in its broader outlines. Even more pleasant, the action itself stays plausible and genuinely engaging throughout. Jared seems able to hold his breath for a preternaturally long time, but aside from that the movie is meticulous about the dangers and threats the characters face and is all the stronger for it. Add to this its unabashed ogling of Alba and Walker (both of whom are astonishing physical specimens) and you have a solid romp. Also featuring Scott Caan (Ocean's Eleven), Tyson Beckford (Biker Boyz), and Josh Brolin (Flirting With Disaster) as a slimy rival treasure hunter. --Bret Fetzer

Great summer rental! Eye candy, action, blue waters, and did I mention eye candy!.......2007-06-06
This is the type of movie that DVD rentals were made for as this movie delivers on showing you engaging underwater scenes, action, sexy sexy Paul Walker and Jessica Alba, hungry sharks, humor and a nicely packaged little love story with some flavor.
While 4 stars may seem like too much for this type of flick (OK I give it 3++), it actually delivers in its own way. We're not talking Oscar material here as the script is full of cliches, the acting is a little wooden, poor Jessica's character had nothing to do except look stunning (lips and back ;-) and there are some plot holes. But irrespectively of all this, it kept me smiling from start to finish.
This movie was massacred by critics and I can see why, but I always would rather see a movie deliver on its own scale than fail in every scale, like some movies that are supposed to be funny and they are not. I recommend this one if you want to feel summery and spend a couple of hours with hot/tanned people surrounded by bad guys and gorgeous blue water.
Hot Hot Hot.......2007-05-31
This is a really good movie and Jessica Alba is SO incredibly HOT,I mean WOW.
Did any one see Jessica Alba's little NIP Slip?
It is really hard to catch unless you know where you are looking.
I recommend watching this movie over and over again.
Fun Ocean Flick.......2007-05-28
Being a big fan of Walker and Alba,I looked forward to see how they would be on screen together.I watched it,when it came on tv and was amazed.The chemistry was very cool.It is one of those movies,for me anyway,that whenever it is on,I would watch it.It has all the elements of a beach type movie,with the bikinis and peril.Being it is a action/drama type flick. I'm sure ,that if you are checking out the review for this,you pretty much know about the movie. I waited til the price went down and see Amazon has one of the better prices.It isn't great,but it keeps you on the edge ,til the end. Couple of surprises and cool ocean action....
2.5: dumb dumb dumb...but really pretty.......2007-05-25
A movie like Into the Blue is one of those kind of films where if you have doubts as to its merits and then watch it, well, it's your own fault. You notice the 2 leads on the cover, the setting, the plot and you just say to yourself "oh no, I might not like this right?" Well you'd be pretty right, depending on what you think you're getting into. You wanting to see an original script? Good acting? Well no but if you want to see beautiful cinematography and actors that look just as good well here you go.
Jared and Sam (Paul Walker and Jessica Alba) are a young couple living in the Bahamas. Jared was fired recently as a scuba dive guide while Sam works at a dolphin show as an announcer. One day, Jared's brother Bryce and his new girlfriend Amanda (Scott Caan and Ashley Scott) arrive and go on a scuba dive. They discover 2 things: a plane that crashed which carries a large supply of cocaine as well as artifacts underneath the sand. But of course they don't have the equipment to haul up what could be a sunken vessel so it becomes a question of ethics: get the cocaine and use the money to fund the vessel expedition or leave it alone. Well, there is also the business of a treasure hunter rival as well as the cocaine owner who wants it back and is willing to go far to get it back.
I'll get the positives out of the way because I'm gonna blast this film later. This is one attractive looking movie with the cinematography showing off the idyllic life that you can have in the Bahamas and the underwater photography was well-done as well. The other is of course seeing Alba and Scott in bikinis, which'll get the males salivating. In fact you can make a case this is really the only reason to watch. As for the ladies, well I'm sure Walker is bound to get them going nuts since he's shirtless for a huge chunk of the movie.
Everything else though is just awful. Granted, parts of the story were kind of surprising since half the time I didn't know where it was going but whether that was the script being ahead of me or it just didn't know what it was doing, I haven't a clue. Not to mention these characters are some of the most dumbest I've seen with so many bad choices and you wonder maybe they've been out in the sun too long. And while attractive, all 4 of the leads either look uninterested or they're just not bringing all their acting cards to the table, especially Walker who just feels so...bland. And what's with his Aquaman-like lung capacity?
Should you buy it? No, unless you're a Walker or Alba fan. Should you rent it? If you haven't found anything else, I suppose you can but don't say I didn't warn you.
Amazing!!!.......2007-05-05
This movie is perfect for anybody.It's action packed and it's romantic.Both guys and girls will like this movie.Paul Walker and Jesscia Alba are awesome!The ocean,actors,plot and action are anything you could want in a movie!!

One and only one reason.......2007-06-16
There is mainly one reason to buy this movie, the action is so/so, the plot is grossly contrived, but the saving grace for this film is in the underwater camera work. By that I am referring exclusively to the way the cameraman follows Jessica Alba around from behind underwater as she swims. There is no nudity, there needs to be no nudity, this is simply a film about the hottest woman in known existences butt. Its super high def Jessica Alba, you'll be on the slow mo button half the film anyway so I doubt you'll notice an actual story.
A Good Action Adventure Film.......2007-03-10
I enjoyed this alluring film.I found it to be very interesting and thoroughly engrossing. The cast (Paul Walker, Josh Brolin and Scott Caan) was refreshing. The score composed by Paul Haslinger was very effective. Shades of Peter Benchley's THE DEEP seem to glitter in the waters here.
Good.......2007-02-28
I liked this movie. I am a Jessica Alba fan and mainly got it for that reason. The movie is kind of flaky in the sense that the storyline is not original nor is it necessarily a great story. It did have enough action and Jessica Alba to make it a good movie though. I would watch it again, though its not going to make my top 50 movies. Worth it for a bargain price.
Jessica Alba looking good in Blu-Ray!.......2006-12-14
Story Synopsis:
If you are a clothing minimalist, Into The Blue is for you. With the azure skies and crystal waters of the Bahamas their backyard, Jared (Walker) and his girlfriend, Sam (Alba), enjoy a peaceful existence...and incredible tans. But, with the arrival of Sam's childhood friend, Bryce (Caan), and his girlfriend Amanda (Scott), and the subsequent discovering of a possible sunken treasure, greed rears its head jeopardizing not only their friendship, but their very lives.
Disc Picture:
The 2.32:1 MPEG-2 Blu-ray Disc picture looks great, overall. There is a purposely oversaturated look to the picture, with blown-out whites and colors.The underwater color schemes seem to really look good as well. The picture quality is outstanding, with beautiful locales, which is improved of course by the presence of Jessica Alba.
Soundtrack:
The linear PCM 5.1-channel soundtrack uses a broad front stage, good surround integration, and well-recorded dialogue to deliver an enjoyable audio experience. Deep bass is not very prevalent, making the soundtrack sound a bit thin.
Underwater Thriller.......2006-11-17
Jared (Paul Walker) works as a scuba teacher but dreams of being a treasure hunter who finds a gold-laden shipwreck. His girlfriend Sam (Jessica Alba) supports him in all that he does and truly loves him. When Jared's brother Bryce (Scott Caan) shows up with a new girlfriend Amanda (Ashley Scott) luck seems to go their way. They have access to a boat and have found a few scattered remnants of a wreck that might be the pirate ship that's supposed to be the mother lode of treasure ships. Unfortunately, a plane with cocaine has crashed into the ocean nearby and complicates the situation when the drug runners come looking for their lost product. Further trouble happens as everyone argue how best to proceed with the search for the treasure ship, and what to do about the cocaine.
John Stockwell directed the movie and does an amazing job of shooting eye-catching imagery that's stunning on the Blu-ray presentation. I found myself getting sidetracked more than once by the seascape captured in the camera lens, and the fact that I noticed it at all while Jessica Alba was swimming around in a bikini is saying a lot. The audio portion of the movie is packaged uncompressed, allowing the film to take full advantage of a surround sound system and throughly wow the audiophile.
Although INTO THE BLUE doesn't go anywhere spectacular for the experienced moviegoer (films like THE DEEP and A SIMPLE PLAN offer similar plot lines and conflict), it does deliver a very watchable story. The added bonus of the incredible underwater imagery and the impeccable sound system is worth getting the movie in Blu-ray if you don't already have it on DVD.
As a thriller, INTO THE BLUE works. And it's a great buddy flick. Not exactly date material, but if you're with someone who likes action and tension, this will fit the bill nicely.

Unlike The Living Sea, its Oscar
®-nominated predecessor, IMAX's Into the Deep confines itself to one location--the Channel Islands off the coast of California. But what a location it is! Directed by Howard Hall (Island of the Sharks) and narrated by actress Kate Nelligan, this exquisitely shot feature follows a number of the colorful creatures who live among the area's kelp beds as they build their living quarters, fight to protect them, mate, and die. Some of the more notable sequences include the aggressive mating dance of the fiery Garibaldi fish, the arduous molting of a lobster (captured with time-lapse photography), and the sophisticated synchronized movements of a school of silvery Spanish mackerel that sparkle and shine in the sunlight streaming in from above. Colors (especially reds and blues) that really pop, spare and unobtrusive narration, and a playful soundtrack make this fascinating film ideal for repeat viewing. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
Description
Filmed off the coast of Southern California, this fascinating film journeys to an enchanting underwater world of swaying kelp forests and glowing corals. Swim nose to nose with colorful garibaldi, starfish and sharks, play tag with sea lions, and observe the rarely-seen behavior of the creatures of the eternal undersea night.

Dissapointingly short.......2006-08-07
This is really a short DVD. I was expecting much more. It's not even the 35 minutes they claim it has. It's only 32 min on my player. Not that three minutes make a big difference, but the overall content is not so great either. However, the picture quality is excellent and the scenery is superb, this I must admit. The other dissapointing thing is the "Special Features" section. The only special feature they show is a theatrical trailer to other IMAX films (about 3 minutes in length.........)Go figure!!! Ocean Oasis, on the contrary is a superb production with excellent "Special Bonuses". Don't buy "Into the Deep", if you're hesitating. It's not worth the high price.
Life Under The Sea...........2005-09-11
Very nice documentary movie, i like'd the begining of the movie very much... very impressive.
Try this if you like watching nature scan and kinds of creatures of the sea in there natural home, the sea.

I can't explain the other two reviews in this column, but I am a conniseur of this type of material and this is one of the most perfect marriages of music and scenery ever to grace my dvd player. It is a deeply brilliant look at the kelp forrest and it's inhabitants, and will put you in a trance that lasts long after the film ends. Trust me - if u have ANY interest in this material - get this NOW. On the same level, WINGED MIGRATION is a must as well.
Like a runway model..........2003-08-23
...this DVD may be beautiful, but it is utterly lacking in substance. With not nearly enough meat to warrant a DVD, Into the Deep runs like a long teaser for a much more in-depth and expansive exploration of underwater life, deep sea exploration, particular species of sea life...just about anything except what you might see in your first scuba lesson, if you were lucky enough to go on that lesson in these particular California depths. Leave this one on the proverbial shelf.

Customer Reviews:
A little disappointing.......2007-03-08
The movie was a little disappointing. We had hoped for so much more information but it just wasn't there. The scenery was spectacular and I did learn about the Galapagos but it did not live up to what I was hoping for.
Does not do the Enchanted Islands any justice..........2006-08-25
Used to some great IMAX productions, I was very keen on seeing this production, but was very disapointed with the cinematic result of such a large and costly undertaking. The production was marred with challenges, including reduced flora and fauna after a devastating El Nino and the tragic death of two team members. I fully understand that these and other circumstances diminished the amount of quality footage the crew was able to obtain during their 8 weeks in the Enchanted Islands, however, I would have hoped for a documentary that truly introduces these natural marvels to the viewers instead of focusing on a very superficial plot of a marine biologist getting her thrills in exploring the deep ocean floor surrounding the islands in a submarine. There is so much to tell and show about these islands that a one hour program will never be able to do it justice, however I would have expected a better effort in documenting the uniqueness of the flora and fauna and the history of the islands, including the dangers presented to them through fishing, over population and introduced species. I sincerely hope that in the near future a producer finds the courage to do these islands justice by returning with an IMAX team to film a documentary that will allow the world to share the wonders of the Enchanted Islands - maybe he will want to call it "IMAX - Galapagos Revisited"
Disappointing.......2006-04-04
I was disappointed with this movie. The director had an interesting, unique environment he could have pointed his camera toward - the island's vegetation and wildlife are the two things I had hoped to see. Instead the first half of the movie is focused on a woman biologist's bare legs, and the second half is focused on the people and the sub retrieving deep water marine life.
Perhaps the film is targeted toward younger audiences which the director feels can't assimilate more than a few species of animals, birds, and fish.
For an IMAX feast for the eyes, I recommend Amazon. It's scenic and informative.
Galapagos: Again worthy of the IMAX name.......2005-10-21
The film was wonderful! The backgroud music is flawlessly matched with the wonderfully crisp photography. The only reason I did not award it a five was that I wish Darwin could have played a larger role; although, he was mentioned several times. Without my bias it would be a five. I liked that the movie focused on a female scientist which is still the exception for nature videos these days. I would highly recomend this film for any age group from elementary to college. For the price, it would be tough if not impossible to find and equal.
Beautiful images, but tacky, misleading storyline.......2005-01-18
I agree with the other reviewers that this should be entitled 'Underwater life around the Galapagos'. The movie spends far too much time underwater instead of focusing on the magnificent scenery and wildlife on land. Why can't the IMAX producers simply let the gorgeous images of wildlife speak for themselves instead of dreaming up a tacky storyline about a beautiful marine biologist and her oh so dangerous explorations? At one point she rappels down into a cave and worries about the possibility that the rocks above her will collapse. I was in the Galapagos last month and visited the same cave (on the island of Santa Cruz) - what they don't tell you is that there are stairs into the cave from the other end! The naturalist guides we spoke with in the Galapagos regard the IMAX movie as a joke, all the sadder because members of the IMAX team died making the film.
