Speaker 1: Hello and welcome the Deep Blue Sea the Podcast. I
Speaker 1: am Mark Shark Gang Hoffmeyer.
Speaker 2: And I am Jay Thwarted. Podcast schedule clue it Welcome
Speaker 2: you Aboard deep the Podcast. On this show, we've been
Speaker 2: to the entire Deep Sea trilogy seen by scene. I'm
Speaker 2: doing it again, but not today. Today we're talking about
Speaker 2: a deeply he adjacent film, which is normally a film
Speaker 2: director of Berne Harden featuring a credit action or sharks.
Speaker 2: But this is the first time, the first time where
Speaker 2: it's all three. That film is of course deep Water.
Speaker 2: What is deep Water? I'm not entirely sure yet because
Speaker 2: I haven't seen it yet. This is coming out the
Speaker 2: day the film comes out, which is not out in
Speaker 2: the UK yet, but Mark has seen it. So this
Speaker 2: is a fun little bonus spoiler free preview episode, Mark Deepwater,
Speaker 2: What is it?
Speaker 3: Tell us? All right? Oh? So to okay?
Speaker 1: So deep Water is about a flight that that is
Speaker 1: going from Los Angeles to Shanghai. It crashes at the
Speaker 1: worst possible place, right in the middle of the ocean.
Speaker 1: The pilots are Aaron Eckert and Ben Kingsley's It's loaded
Speaker 1: up with an incredible amount of good looking people.
Speaker 3: This plane.
Speaker 1: The stewardess is there's like a you know, this is random,
Speaker 1: and but David Eric will back me up on Endubuyer,
Speaker 1: like does everyone on this plane. There's an incredible amount
Speaker 1: of pretty people on this plane, all likable. There's Angus Sampson.
Speaker 1: But the reason if the plane blows up is because
Speaker 1: Angus Sampson Sampson I love him from Insidious and they
Speaker 1: will kill you mad Maxfrey Road. He he brings a
Speaker 1: lithium battery with a charger that's sparking in his suitcase
Speaker 1: and it explodes. About a ten minute plane crash scene happens. Wow,
Speaker 1: and everyone in the audience was just clapping. When after
Speaker 1: it ended, everyone's like, hot, dang, that was a good one.
Speaker 1: So at first I saw this in a press screening.
Speaker 1: It was a pack theater. I got a life fest,
Speaker 1: you know on the airplane. But it says deep water.
Speaker 3: On it, so it's kind of fun.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, this is a movie where you know,
Speaker 1: it was supposed to be a sequel to Bait.
Speaker 3: It was.
Speaker 1: It was a Bait three D sequel, but when the
Speaker 1: Malaysian plane disappeared, they they shelved it and then Geene
Speaker 1: Simmons from Kiss got involved in arc Light Studios. So
Speaker 1: this is a film where Rennie Harlan had time, he
Speaker 1: had money, and he had some really good actors.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 1: He brought back Eckert from Brick Layer. He has Ben Kingsley.
Speaker 1: Ben Kingsley's just sitting but he adds a lot of
Speaker 1: pathos to the episode. So Jonathan Hickman was here. He
Speaker 1: was on one of our Deep Blue Sea episodes. He
Speaker 1: and I watched it together and he was jumping all
Speaker 1: over the place during the movie. He was like, man,
Speaker 1: they like did a really good job there. And I think, listen,
Speaker 1: it's corny. I don't know how well it's going to
Speaker 1: play on like a phone or a tablet, but it's
Speaker 1: like it's classic Rennie excellent plane crash and if there's
Speaker 1: a plane crash in a Renni film, it's good.
Speaker 3: You have you know, like Ihard Cliffhanger.
Speaker 1: There's sharks like in Deep Bluecy Also there's I don't
Speaker 1: want to say it, but there's another thing that others
Speaker 1: the other movies have that make him really good.
Speaker 3: But yeah, it's it's it's a fun film.
Speaker 1: And when the plane crashes, everyone gets split up into
Speaker 1: four different areas, and because they crash on a core
Speaker 1: a reef and this shark gang akin to the baby
Speaker 1: sharks from Deep Blue cy Too, just roam around eating
Speaker 1: people are just rolling around eating everybody, like no one's
Speaker 1: safe in this movie. Many people die, but yeah, and
Speaker 1: then everything gets separated and then it's up to like
Speaker 1: Aaron Eckert and a few others to to keep everyone alive.
Speaker 1: There's two kids. They're actually pretty likable, and you know,
Speaker 1: it's it's just a I don't want to it's just
Speaker 1: a good time. Like when I walked out of it,
Speaker 1: I was happy. I mean, there's definitely some cornball stuff.
Speaker 1: Like Aaron Eckert, he plays this pilot who was in
Speaker 1: the military but it got kicked out and he has
Speaker 1: like a really sick kid, but he's not coming home
Speaker 1: because he needs to make money.
Speaker 3: That's a lot, you know.
Speaker 1: Ben Kingsley is a retiring pilot. There's a couple who
Speaker 1: just got married and they have two like each one
Speaker 1: has a kid. They're getting remarried, but like one of
Speaker 1: them is a Victoria's Secret model in real life and
Speaker 1: the other's ones like a wildly handsome Australian dude, and
Speaker 1: like they they go off into the bathroom to hook
Speaker 1: up Mile High Club leave their kids behind, so then
Speaker 1: the kids have to like deal with the survival of everything.
Speaker 1: Angus Samson is just hilarious in a lot of hair,
Speaker 1: a lot of sasas, and it's just yeah, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's it was filmed on a tank, obviously, but it
Speaker 1: looks good. The sharks look good. It has a fun
Speaker 1: sense of humor. There's some good jump scares. It's an
Speaker 1: international cast, and you know, there's actually a few characters
Speaker 1: you care for. I mean, Renny has to juggle about
Speaker 1: thirty five different characters in this movie with speaking parts.
Speaker 1: But I don't know any of their names, but I
Speaker 1: knew who they were. They registered as humans to me.
Speaker 1: And I guess the thing that'll help this film is
Speaker 1: word of mouth, because I'm telling you, man, people in
Speaker 1: the theater like when certain characters died, they cheered, when shark.
Speaker 3: Attacks happened, they like they went whoa.
Speaker 1: At the end, everyone clapped like it was a fun
Speaker 1: communal experience in a in a pack theater. And so
Speaker 1: it's just fun watching Rennie do it. But I mean,
Speaker 1: it's classic Rennie. Though I remember Refuge, how kind of corny.
Speaker 1: It gets like there's a lot of cornball stuff in this,
Speaker 1: but there's a lot of kills, a lot of sharks.
Speaker 1: It's a very shark movie. It's a it's a shark
Speaker 1: movie with a lot of.
Speaker 3: Shark action and it's I don't know. It just proves that,
Speaker 3: like you.
Speaker 1: Know, if Rennie has more than three days of prep
Speaker 1: and more than fifty two days to shoot three movies,
Speaker 1: he can do it.
Speaker 3: And the scores are doing well.
Speaker 1: Listen, I'm not gonna say it's it's not deep blue
Speaker 1: Sea level, but if you're just looking for a fun movie,
Speaker 1: this is it.
Speaker 3: It's a it's a good time.
Speaker 1: There's no messages, there's just sharks. It's a shark gang.
Speaker 1: I don't even know why the shark gang is there,
Speaker 1: but it's a shark gang and I love them, so
Speaker 1: it's yeah, it's a good time.
Speaker 2: So you just posted your your Renny ranking on on Facebook.
Speaker 2: This was number nine, I think, so in the top ten.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think that's fair. I think I
Speaker 1: should have put mine Hunters higher. I agree, Yeah, Mine
Speaker 1: Hunters should Mine Hunters should.
Speaker 3: Be four or five. So I'm going to fix that
Speaker 3: right now. But yeah, it's.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's number nine right now, and I think
Speaker 1: that's fair because you know, Cutthroat Island, the ones I
Speaker 1: have ahead of it, I have Deep Blue, cy Long,
Speaker 1: Kiss good Night. Those are my clear ones. Cliffhanger three
Speaker 1: seems fair die Hard to I would probably put mine
Speaker 1: Hunters four, die Hard two, five Nose four in what, sixth,
Speaker 1: Prison in seven because we love.
Speaker 3: Prison Jake, We love prison number eight.
Speaker 1: Cutthroat Island because I don't care how many people at bankrupt.
Speaker 1: It looks gorgeous and it's like we talked about this
Speaker 1: on the show. There's so many moments that are just
Speaker 1: gorgeous to behold, and then steep water like I you know,
Speaker 1: I have Ford fair Lane up there pretty high, but
Speaker 1: it's just because he had a budget and it's insane
Speaker 1: and there's like a it's a fun film. Yeah there's
Speaker 1: a quala on a boat and you know Born Americans'
Speaker 1: first film Brick Layers, Good Covenant.
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think nine's a good spot for it.
Speaker 2: So that would make this his best film since two
Speaker 2: thousand and four easy, which is mind hut wow, which
Speaker 2: is good to hear because you know, we like we
Speaker 2: at least like all of his films. We find things
Speaker 2: that like in all of them. There's even stuff that
Speaker 2: I like about Driven, but we can agree that he's
Speaker 2: had some films that are not great, not as good
Speaker 2: as they could have been.
Speaker 3: Well, you know what, I think this brushed.
Speaker 1: He was just thrown into everything Jay like he didn't
Speaker 1: remember five Days of War. They were like, hey, we
Speaker 1: need to make this movie on Georgia. Cal Rennie, well,
Speaker 1: he did. He had no stake in any of this,
Speaker 1: and I think this one Gene Simmons reached out to
Speaker 1: him personally and asked him to do it.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: The script had been kicking around, but I think Rennie
Speaker 1: felt wanted on this one. They gave Renny time he has.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you this is a good cast. There's like
Speaker 1: a couple of.
Speaker 3: E gamers in here. Everyone.
Speaker 1: I know this is weird for me saying it, but
Speaker 1: everyone's good looking. You'll know when you walk in there,
Speaker 1: it's almost like ridiculously good looking, but you're engaged in
Speaker 1: some of the stories. There's a Shelley Winters type character
Speaker 1: that got huge lass in the theater and then even
Speaker 1: someone calls her the Shelley Winter's character, which made me
Speaker 1: twice as happy but yeah, I think this is him.
Speaker 1: This is like the first time he's allowed to be
Speaker 1: him in a long time, if that makes sense. Like
Speaker 1: I think he's been a director for hire for many
Speaker 1: years and he's never had time.
Speaker 3: There's no time, but I think this one he had it.
Speaker 3: And it's.
Speaker 1: You play a drinking game every time and say it's
Speaker 1: a good time. But that's what this movie is, and
Speaker 1: I enjoyed it. I feel like there's the crashing scene.
Speaker 1: Ben Kingsley and Aaron Eckard are very good in it.
Speaker 1: There they add a welcome all like pathos to the scene.
Speaker 1: It's they add a weight to it. And it's I'm
Speaker 1: not talking like this is Captain Phillips or anything like
Speaker 1: I'm not this on that level or you know, was
Speaker 1: that not Sully? Yeah, Sully or Flight But yeah, ah
Speaker 1: in a better mustache in that one.
Speaker 3: He doesn't have one in this show.
Speaker 1: But I I think I'm not comparing those to that.
Speaker 1: This is a Renny Harlem movie. But he he has
Speaker 1: the juice in this one. There's some you can kind
Speaker 1: of feel him flexing again, and you can in interviews
Speaker 1: you can see him smiling again. And Yeah, I think
Speaker 1: I think it's a. It's the first time he's allowed
Speaker 1: to be ready.
Speaker 3: In a long time.
Speaker 2: I'm trilled to hear that. I can't wait to see it.
Speaker 2: I have to wait, so we will, we will. We're
Speaker 2: going to cut that here. Keep this is like a
Speaker 2: little nice preview. We will do a full episode on
Speaker 2: this at some point, once it has a white road,
Speaker 2: once it has a UK release, well I'll be I'm
Speaker 2: determined to see this on a big screen with with people,
Speaker 2: so we'll come back and have a full upisode there then.
Speaker 2: But for now, I guess go and watch deep Water.
Speaker 3: Check it out.
Speaker 2: I'm envious of all of you you can.
Speaker 3: I can't.
Speaker 2: I'm so jealous of people who can go and see it.
Speaker 2: So for me, please go and see this film.
Speaker 3: It's a good time.
Speaker 2: And because it's not, it won't be our next week's
Speaker 2: episode like we kind of planned it to be. I
Speaker 2: think the Rogue episode is getting bumped up instead. So
Speaker 2: next week is going to be Yeah, next week is going.
Speaker 3: To be is a good time.
Speaker 2: Yes, So Deep See Chapter thirty one is next week
Speaker 2: with doctor Darren McPhee Shark Expert, and then a week
Speaker 2: after that we Rogue with just commands of Kite and
Speaker 2: then who knows that then it might be deep water.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: We'll see when it comes out, but keep keep watching.
Speaker 2: The fee didn't, well, we'll have a deep water so
Speaker 2: for you soon. Yeah, I think for the deep worter preview,
Speaker 2: I've been Jake Lewis.
