Reviews

“And again two crisp wellness fetishists have to defend themselves against trigger-happy scoundrels in search of sea treasure. The unknown swimming trunks and bikini beauties provide a real summer feeling, but the story staged on a lower TV level can't save them either. - Conclusion DVD premiere to dive into "

"Without any closer references to or the well-known stars of the predecessor, Hollywood director Stephen Herek celebrates a straightforward little action adventure against an exotic backdrop with comparatively few diving trips for a film with such a title."

“The dreamlike setting and the bodies of the protagonists are the only things that speak for this film. Otherwise, the sequel to "Into the Blue" (2005) doesn't have much more to offer than its predecessor. "
