Into The Blue [DVD]

The copy I received is BLURAY but has Walker and Alba in B/W nearly blue colour, but otherwise I guess it is the same as the full colour one here that I am told "I purchased". So...The transfer is excellent 2.35:1 ratio, good sound colour and subtitles. No extras. As a One star reviewer said, and I quote "not even a pert buttocked Alba can save this movie" (as near as dammit a quote). Sadly he is right. How could this film, with so much potential, including the aforementioned Alba in her prime, be just a bit boring? Answer - too much underwater filming where it is often hard to tell who is who or who is doing what to who(m), a rather pedantic script, and mainly unlikeable characters (Scott Caan and almost everyone else except Alba). Alba has a nothing part and it isn't enough to film her in a minikini and shorts, or co-star Ashley Scott (who almost outshines Alba, particularly in the minikini stakes). I make no apology for making a lot out of the lack of clothes, because the director certainly knew what would attract audiences. To be positive for a moment, there is someaction, an element of suspense, and a good show from a bewhiskered Josh Brolin, but I longed for a sharper script, better direction, and a bit more pizzazz from the actors. Sorry folks, but that's how I felt after watching the film. But I am sure many many viewers will disagree and love it, and as I said, the quality of the transfer is excellent, as is the current price.

I thought with Paul Walker in the film it would be an exciting film with amazing stunts, but found this rather boring with very few stunts, watch the trailer and you have seen the best part!A twist to who the bad guy is, but even that did not save the film.Nothing like 'need for speed' for action.Sad! Disappointing!!

This is a great movie. It's sexy, slick and it's great to see some old faces like Josh Brolin. I like the late Paul Walker in his other movies and Jessica Alba is pretty go in this too. Josh plays "Bates" the rival/ex employer to Paul's Character "Jared" and they are all treasure hunters. Jared has gone out on his own trying to fix up a boat but has no money. Bates has the big boat with all the trimmings.The film is full of great sun bleached scenery and clear blue waters with a good mixture of action, intrigue, and a bit of suspense. There are some moving moments too, some great diving sequences and I really liked the story. For a Blu-ray it looks great and sounds really good too.Enjoy

If you're looking for an easy film to pass a rainy Saturday afternoon with. This will fit the bill. just switch off the ol' brainbox and watch the 'sploshuns. It's enjoyable enough. The picture quality is fantastic and deeply saturated with glorious colours. The sound is excellent too.As this was such a cheap buy, I thought I'd upgrade my DVD copy. I was a wee bit peeved that the Blu-Ray did not have any extra's whatsoever on it. At least the DVD had a Director's commentary, a making of featurette and deleted scenes. None are on the Blu-Ray. A plain old vanilla disc. Whatever happened to "More data capability of BD for all those extra's" Oh well. It just means my mate won't get my old cast off DVD. A poor show from Sony. Tsk tsk!

Good lpcm audio track,watches as a movie rather than a 't.v movie',and under a fiver,...but the transfer could be alot more solid-it is like a wall of paint lacking that final coat which is a crying shame as this is a Sony bd,and their discs are always great & crammed with extras.Their are no extras here,but for under a fiver you don't mind.Suppose only worth its buck if you own a nice 5.1 surround system-unless just get the dvd down your local second hand record store.p.s-the product says region free but mine specifically is 'B',its clearly printed on the back.

Great movie own it on dvd but always wanted it on blu-ray in HD although not the cover as shown above which is what i was hoping for it’s still a fantastic release by Sony Pictures as always they deliver the best quality picture and sound. Oh and Region B only too not Region Free as stated.

This is a great film to watch and very enjoyable to see. There is a storyline to this film despite of what other people might say about this. It's just a matter of listening and taking it all in so you can understand more. Anyone who's watched this film and doesn't understand about this film hasn't really listened and watched as the storyline unfolds. It's a very good film and one of many. I very much enjoyed seeing this film. And it's one that you'll like to see over and over gain and never get sick of.

Arrived on time 👍 , Blu-ray Into The Blue , Underwater Diving , Crime Adventure , 😁👍
