This film takes elements of Jaws and creates something new. Thriller based on Jaws author Peter Benchley's novel of the same name, The Deep is a good film, but is never anything great. I don't really recommend this, but if you want a treasure hunt movie, and don't mind if it's kinda bad, then sure, give this one a watch on a rainy day. To the film's credit, some of the music is okay, and the cinematography is really good, and I did like the underwater sequences, but overall, this movie was kinda blah, and the cheesy ending was way too silly, so much so that I was almost considering hating on this even more. The film's pacing just seemed really off, and it would probably seem disorienting to those not familiar with the book, and those who've read it, like me, will just be mad at the sloppy adaptation. She looks great in a tight, wet, white bikini, though. but I really had a hard time buying Nolte in the lead, and he doesn't have much chemistry with Bisset.

The performances are okay, and there's a nice cast, including Robert Shaw, Eli Wallach, Nick Nolte, Jacqueline Bisset, and Louis Gossett Jr. The main thing is that the movie strips away a large amount of character development, condenses the story greatly, yet still has a run time of a little over 2 hours. It's obvious that he probably wasn't going to have this top Jaws, but still, he could have done a lot better. The movie on the other hand, is a dull mediocre disappointment, I'm not sure why either. That last sentence mostly refers to the book. The set up is rather typical for action/adventure/treasure hunt thrillers, but even then, it's pretty enjoyable. The story follows a young couple on a romantic vacation in the Caribbean who stumble uon a sunken ship while scuba diving that could lead to untold riches.and immense danger.

Then, he decided to step in and adapt that book for this cinematic adaptation. He continued the trend by writing The Deep. Peter Benchley made a name for himself by writing Jaws.
