Open Water

Post by Nomad »

Just finished watching Open Water. Its based on a true story, however I recall some controversy over that when the film came out.

Anyhoo the story is a couple on vacation go diving. They get left behind in the ocean when a crew member miscounts the passengers. I liked it. It was a good adventure story.

4 popcorn kernels.

I haven't seen it, I have tried to watch it but can't to real I have had one to many close encounter with big scarry fish in my youth surfing. :-3

Question do either one of them live to tell the story, or was it just a guess as to what happened to them in open waters???
