“Abyss” Movie Review

“Abyss” Plot Summary

A civilian diving team are enlisted to search for a lost nuclear submarine and face danger while encountering an alien aquatic species.

Deeply Amazing

Dear Readers,

One of my favorite Sci-Fi films is The Abyss, a deep water action/adventure film by the master of Science Fiction, James Cameron. A stunning thriller filmed almost entirely underwater and one of the first films to feature CGI effects. But it’s not the special effects that define this film. It’s the plot, the script, the characters, and the direction.

The Abyss begins with a US Nuclear Submarine encountering an anomaly in the ocean, causing them to crash into a trench at the bottom of the ocean. The US Navy is powerless to reach them because of an incoming Hurricane. So instead they hire a group of underwater oil miners led by Virgil ‘Bud’ Brigman. Brigman’s soon-to-be-ex-wife, Lindsay, infuriated that her underwater oil rig is being used for a military operation, tags along with a group of Navy SEALS led by the cold Lieutenant Coffey. As they investigate the Sub wreckage, the Divers and the SEALS encounter a power living down in the Abyss…A power with the ability to save the world or destroy it.

James Cameron outdoes himself with this underwater thriller and so does the cast. You get inside each of the characters heads and see each their points of view. Ed Harris plays his role quietly and coolly, playing a man who’s become bitter from losing his wife and questioning whether there is life at the bottom of the ocean. Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio is awesome as Lindsay Brigman, a dedicated engineer and scientist determined to prove that the life at the bottom of the Abyss is not a threat to mankind. Michael Biehn steals the show, though, as the slowly-going-insane Lieutenant Coffey. Not since watching Platoon have I seen such insanity in a man. Gone is the cool charming character of Kyle Reese and instead is a man who will kill anything that threatens his mission.

Point blank: Watch this film.

Signed, The Constant DVD Collector, Matt Macleod

Parental Warning: There’s some mild swearing and tense moments, but there’s also a scene of nudity as well. I recommend not letting your kids see this if they’re under teenage years. You be the judge.

    “My Best Friend’s Wedding” Movie Review

    “My Best Friend’s Wedding” Plot Summary

    When a woman’s long-time friend says he’s engaged, she realizes she loves him herself… and sets out to get him, with only days before the wedding.

    Good romantic comedy that will make you laugh, possibly cry, touch you, and make you feel warm inside

    MY BEST FRIEND’S WEDDING, in my opinion, is a good romantic comedy that will make you laugh, possibly cry, touch you, and make you feel warm inside. If you ask me, Julia (Roberts), Dermot (Mulroney), and Cameron (Diaz) dazzle as a jealous food critic, a wandering sports writer, and a sunny-natured heiress! My favorite parts are when Julianne (Julia Roberts) chases after Michael (Dermot Mulroney) as he’s chasing after Kimmy (Cameron Diaz) and when Kimmy and Julianne yell at each other in the ladies’ room at Comiskey Park. The one thing I really hated about this movie was Cameron Diaz’ singing. My friend, Brandon, covered his ears when she sang ‘I Just Don’t Know What To Do With Myself.’ No offense, Cameron, but, you sang better in THE MASK. In conclusion, there is a moral to this story, and, that moral is, ‘Never take your relationship with your boyfriend or girlfriend for granted.’
