Fransk og tildels gaab mellem de smukke billeder

The actors are bad, the music is really bad. It has aesthetics that look like a porno at times. But you can still have some fun watching this movie.

Some will probably dislike Bessons' sentimentality, but it works just fine in this beautiful film filled with a certain kind of melancholia. A tender film with a compassionate relationship to its characters.

"The Big Blue" isn't for everyone. Director's cut that I watched is almost 3 hours long, there is certain level of cheesiness, and the sentimentality is almost as wide as the oceans that are portrayed. But I enjoyed almost every minute of it. Acting and characters are very interesting, photography is worthy of the best nature documentaries, soundtrack is brilliant, and the story of love triangle between man, woman and the sea is pretty fresh. Oceans are beautiful.

Hugely overrated! Nice cinematography and music, but truely idiotic plot.

the ending stayed with me

For some reason over-the-top sentimentality and cheesy synth-music works in this flick, adding to the sympathy for and identification with the main character. Full of both funny and sad moments, this is perhaps Bessons best movie.

James Cameron gets wet when he watches this.

I've only seen the movie once, when I was about 15 or so. I remember liking it overall, but the only thing I remember about the movie is the part where The Professional punches the windshield out of that tiny car. That was awesome.
