I am going to admit a little something here and
am pretty sure that most of our male readers, and some females, should agree.
Into the Blue
is coming out this weekend and could probably have a successful opening,
all thanks to the single most element that has carried the hype of this
film since the beginning-- a wet Jessica
Alba.
If you were hoping to see Into the Blue because you thought Torque
was a classic... well, that's you.
Into the Blue Review
The good people over at AICN
have posted the first early review for Into the Blue and I cannot
tell you whether the response is positive or negative. Check out a couple
snippets below:
But first, I’ve got to spank it just a bit.
You see, for the first 90% of it, Into the Blue is your standard,
paint-by-numbers Paul Walker action thriller. Now I found an interesting
Paul Walker factoid in his IMDB biography. It reads simply “He doesn't like
to watch himself on screen and will only watch his own movies once.” Wow.
Paul, you’re not alone.
Despite being PG-13 (and truly feeling it for the first 100 minutes of the movie) this movie shifts gears into an R-rated blur of insanity that just boggles the mind as to how it escaped the MPAA with the rating it got. All of a sudden, reason, logic and continuity go right out the fucking window. Who cares if Paul Walker jumped into the ocean with his hands handcuffed behind his back – handcuffs that seem to be water-soluble, as you inexplicably never see them again? This movie turns into a frenzy of violence that will delight true film lovers with its sheer, unadulterated mindlessness. Without warning, Jessica Alba is running around a boat hacking at people with a rusty holy-fuck-that’s-big machete. Paul Walker is wrestling around with Josh Brolin underwater. And people are firing explosive tipped spear guns at one another. All at the same time. What? That’s not crazy enough for you? Well then, that’s when someone gets hit with a spear and begins to bleed into the water. Yes, and that’s when the sharks show up. And all hell breaks loose.
