Throw in some Dark Angel
[Spoiler Alert]
Into The Blue is a popular movie and I can see why. It’s got solid action, attractive male and female leads (Paul Walker/Jessica Alba), 70% of the film is in a scenic underwater and, for the most part, the story moves along pretty well. After finishing the film, I watched a sort of “making of” in the special features and at one point Jessica Alba (one of the main characters) briefly talks about how during a climatic action fight sequence where she’s hand-cuffed and locked in a room (because the women are always captives in the movies, you know) the original script had one of the male characters coming to save her. After reading this (and the rest of the script), she told the director basically, “I’m really good at action…and you know, you should maybe write something for me to do…because I can do it and I love it.”
