Into the Blue 2: The Reef (2009): Treasure of the San Cristobal Shipwreck


     Directed by Stephen Herek, and written by Sara Berrisford, Into the Blue 2: The Reef (2009) is a sequel in name only, having no carry-over characters or storyline from the first film. The plot centers on a couple in Hawaii that run a diving-for-hire business, who are hired by a mysterious European couple to find the long-lost 17th Century Spanish sunken shipwreck of the treasure-filled San Cristobal… full of gold and jewels worth hundreds of millions. However, they soon find out that their employers have much more devious motives. The storyline isn't great and the acting is lackluster, but the straight-to-video film does have some exciting moments with it's good-looking cast and the underwater cinematography is excellent. Laura Vandervoort and Marsha Thomason are beautiful in the two most prominent female roles. The rest of the cast is hit-or-miss, including Chris Carmack, Mircea Monroe, Michael Graziadei and David Anders.
