The Deepest Breath (2023)
Intense in every way
Just watched this.
I'm not a freediver, but as a rescue diver, I found this beautiful and intense, and I understand the feelings that moved Alessia and Stephen and many of the comments they made.
Also having been to Dahab, I know how beautiful, but also how dangerous it can be.
But I don't think you need to do any diving or love the sea at all to enjoy this story of living the moment and pushing your limits. At times stunning, at times anxiety-inducing, it's beautifully edited and it's a great story of two people finding their calling AND finding each other.
I ended the movie with a few tears and an even deeper appreciation for "carpe diem" and for the beauty of (and respect for) the ocean.
I strongly recommend it.

Just awful
I get it: Tempus Fugit, Carpe Diem, Mementi Mori.
But oh my God this was just AWFUL.
I wanted to like it, I really did. The Sixth Sense was amazing, but it every Shyamalan movie after it just gets progressively worse.
I gave this one a chance but it's a 108 minutes of my life I'll never get back.
The lines are idiotic, everything is disjointed, there's no character development...and then there's just plain senseless stuff like characters 's eye color not matching. D'oh!
I'm not exaggerating. Please do yourself a favor and follow the message of the movie: life is too shorty, skip this one altogether.

And you thought 'Inception' was hard to wrap your head around? HA!
WOW. What a trip!!! My head's still spinning.
But that's Nolan. That's what he does.
Just when you think you're starting to figure it out, he convolutes it 1000% folding the story over itself like origami! (to borrow another reviewer's expression).
..and you thought 'Inception' was hard to wrap your head around? HA! It *is* a complicated movie that requires multiple viewings. I'll definitely be going for seconds.
AMAZING.
