Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Great entertainment!
"The Deep" 1977 Staring Robert Shaw, Jacqueline Bisset, Nick Nolte, Louis Gossett, Jr., and Eli Wallach. What a GREAT cast of stars. I enjoyed the movie plot, the actors, and the treasure hunt off of Bermuda. Oh the plot; a couple (Nick and Jacqueline) on vacation go diving off the coast of Bermuda, but they find more than they can bargain for. They find drugs, you know the local drug lord (Louis Gossett, Jr.) wants them. They find gold treasure, you know everyone wants the treasure. And of course you have to go to the expert of the seas regarding the treasure; Robert Shaw! Bring in Eli Wallach for the history/knowledge on the drugs. Enjoy!
If you want a companion piece to Jaws, The Deep is a fine choice. Also penned by Peter Benchley and starring Robert Shaw, there's plenty of breathtaking underwater photography. Nick Nolte is great in his leading man role, and Jaqueline Bisset is stunning and sympathetic as the wife drawn into the deep water adventure. Picture quality is remarkable for the film's age. A fine transfer of a quality catalogue title. Recommended.
Great movie - even better book. If you liked Jaws, you’ll like this. Typical Peter Benchley. Compared to movies from the past 30 years, you’d have to say this is a classy movie. You don’t have thousands of cuss words and multiple sexual encounters with a story line mixed in somewhere. It’s riveting, full of action and you’ll love the moray eel.
