Underwater Experience.

The title is an indication as to what this is about and it is indeed it makes a change to watch such a movie. A skilled diver works for a man who keeps on insisting on locating certain hidden treasures in the deep Atlantic Ocean but then his younger brother, who had left him some years back, turns up.

Starring Sanjay Dutt, Lara Dutta, Akshaye Kumar, Zayed Khan, Kabir Bedi, Katrina Kaif, Rahul Dev and a special appearance by Kylie Minogue, this is directed by Anthony D'Souza, written by Bryan Sullivan, while the music score is by A.R. Rahman.

A slight bit of change of role for "Munnabhai," Sanjay Dutt, even though it is an action oriented movie. And unlike his previous action movies, he does perform action but in a slightly milder form but never the less, he has performed well This is also different role for Lara Dutta from her previous movie, "Do Knot Disturb," in which she had performed a comedy act. With this, she has proved that not only is she a true actress who is able to perform every part that she is offered. She also performs well in the underwater scenes when diving.. Zayed Khan's role is okay but he could have performed better seeing that he had Sanjay Dutt and Akshaye Kumar as his co – stars and Katrina Kaif could have done better if there was more to her role. A film with Akshaye Kumar is bound to have some stunts with the action and Akshaye Kumar has performed well and his characterisation is quite convincing and Rahul Dev is also good. Finally, the former "Neighbours" star and singer, Kylie Minogue, makes a brief appearance as her self, which breathes some extra life into the film. A.R. Rahman does provide some good music score as well and in one song particularly – "Chiggy Wiggy." Director Anthony D'Souza has done something that has never been done before in a Hindi film and that is to take the audience underwater. He has handled this very well and the result can be seen on the screen in the form of under water visual effects. The underwater scenes and the relevant action scenes have been handled very well. The cinematography is worth watching.

This is a type of movie that can be enjoyed by those who like to watch a movie that has some action and adventure mixed in along with some romance. A good underwater action, adventure movie that has a bit of romance.
