Review Time

Warning/Disclaimer: there are flashing effects/colourful effects/animal cruelty/animal feeding/self-harm/medical. Disclaimer; I will not be discussing anything to do with the tragic incident on one of Baldwin's latest upcoming film Rust. But I just want to say RIP Halyna Hutchins [1979-2021] and I hope Joel Souza recovery is going well from this incident. Now just to highlight again I am just respectful and wishing well here and nothing more.

Storyline/Characters [Character developments]/Performances: these three components combined in this film; the storyline is firstly good; but slowly more in-depth now; it takes this unforeseen and tragic accident; this plane crash [Amphibian plane] for this secret and the truth to come out between Charles Morse/Hopkins [a very wealthy business man; he is extremely intelligent in a book smarts and practical way, but having said that while he is aware of his weaknesses as he referenced to one at some point in this film, but for here and now he doesn't have the mindset or capabilities of fantasy like imagining unicorns, but as I have already illustrated he has the practical imagination down, so useful things absolutely but anything else not this thing and finally is a husband to Mickey Morse/Macpherson.]

Green/Baldwin [a fashion model photographer which is working with Mickey Morse/Macpherson on this photo shoot, he has been working with Mickey for long enough for this trio to be all friends. But he does come across as someone you would be a fool to completely trust him with anything.] Mickey Morse/Macpherson [fashion model and wife to Charles Morse/Hopkins] The pacing of this project is generally speaking progressive, don't get me wrong in the opening section up to the plane crash it moves, but it does need a kick up its posterior and after the plane crash it is a very good thing that this project has this lead partnership or up to a certain point lead a lead trio including Steve/Perrineau [he works for Green/Baldwin on the fashion photography side of things.] But regardless of it trio or pair it needs them to keep this film on track and moving at a good pace and excellent on-screen chemistry; you know always moving, but from an overview perspective the cast performances are good.

Action/Art: these two components combined here; where we have this plane crash and everybody is rapidly is thinking underwater, so we have Green/Baldwin escaping Charles Morse/Hopkins rescuing Steve/Perrineau and unfortunately the pilot which may or may not have been conscious at this point not making it out [Amphibian Pilot/Musser;] this is good.

This film receives: 7/10, this film is good; the scenery from beginning to end of this film is eye-catching, if there are any fans of Hopkins or Baldwin or both out there in Internet land take a look at this film at least once, Now as it relates to this film sadly RIP Bart the Bear as The Bear [1977-2001] trained by Doug Seus; he puts into an excellent performance and RIP for anyone else that has sadly died connected to this film and just to finish this review off; this film has 3 Nominations for one example 20/20 Awards 2018; Felix; Best Picture.
