INTO THE BLUE is beautifully photographed and most of the underwater scenes are astounding. Jared(Paul Walker)and Sam(Jessica Alba)are joined by old friend Bryce(Scott Caan)and his new squeeze Amanda(Ashley Scott)as they dive into the shark-infested waters of the Bahamas. Jared and Bryce have dreamed of discovering sunken treasure since they were boys. The foursome discovers a legendary pirate ship rumored to have gone to the bottom with millions in gold. The divers also find a sunken plane containing a cargo of cocaine worth a king's ransom that puts themselves in dutch with the drug lord wanting his illicit property.
Walker proves to be a man's man in this well-paced adventure. And Miss Alba is a beat shy of cardiac arrest. Caan, son of veteran actor James Caan, is one of those method actors that can sometimes be a pain in the butt. Another actor's son is in the cast...Josh Brolin, son of James Brolin. The younger Brolin plays one of those cocky friends that turns out to be two-faced and devious. Miss Scott is attractive in her own way, but her talent seems one dimensional. Expect edge of your seat thrills and more than enough action to hold your attention.
