Review of Open Water

Open Water (2003)
10/10
Exceeded my expectations
30 August 2004
This movie sounded like one I would like, and turned out to be one I *love*.

I found the main characters both believable and surprisingly likable. Movie-makers like to portray the couples in this type of movie as bickering, selfish, loveless bastards who in some way deserved it. These people were nice, funny, and seemed to genuinely *like* each other. Through the whole movie, I wanted so much for them to be okay again. I was not bored at all. I thought the plot was very plausible, the acting was good, and the ending satisfied me although it was not at all what I was expecting. I was particularly happy that some humor was thrown in here and there - in the middle of being all tense and worried, we were able to laugh out loud at some of the conversations.

I gave it ten stars!
