Am I Missing Something?

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

Just saw Deep Gold and gotta say was utterly taken by surprise in this B-movie extravaganza!Starring one super-hot Asian chick, and several action-packed 3D scenes - this film is an impressive statement from upcoming director - Michael Gleissner.The cinematography is excellent, scenery fantastic, together with some Hollywood grade sound design and great visual effects - it's really a must see for this weekend!Oh..and did I mention it's in 3D! ;)9/10

I saw Deep Gold a few days ago. Honestly, I did not expect anything good because I always highly doubted Philippines could ever compete with other Asian film industries (Japan, China). It did not disappoint in that respect, it was an absolutely horrible movie, a total waste of my time and money.The plot is reminiscent of other great work (sarcastic) by Fred Bailey who still somehow manages to sell his scripts and have movies made out of them. If you check most of his scripts here, the ratings are all around 3, the ratings do not lie. However, the ratings will lie here for a while because the only people that rated it 8, 9 or 10 are either workers of Bigfoot company or some really close friends of the owner.The story is just atrocious and SO ordinary that it will never stand out. The acting is terrible, that's what you get from using models as actors. You must have a huge ego to be both director and actor, unfortunately it rarely works, only Tarantino manages to break the barrier. The action scenes had NO tension whatsoever, the danger happens always AFTER the hero is safe and sound, especially during the library scene. The story is predictable and offers no twists whatsoever so I don't know how anyone can say it's the best 3d movie of 2011 (of course it's an employee review).After reading more about Bigfoot online, I found out that it is ruled by the owner who disregards ALL other people's opinions though having no film training whatsoever. And all other Bigfoot films are B-movies at best, but most lower than that.Stay away from this horrific movie and spend your money more wisely. Watching golf is more exciting than watching this.

Great job on the underwater diving scenes and car chase! There were many exciting scenes that kept me glued to my seat. I really like how this film featured the beautiful island of Cebu, Philippines! Nice shots on the scenic view which showcased the pristine blue waters around the island. It made me want to book a ticket to the Philippines.I didn't know any of the actors. One did stand out. Kudos to Jaymee Ong for a wonderful performance. Her acting was awesome and natural. Some of the actors though should take up acting lessons.Overall, the movie was entertaining. Cool soundtrack. I wouldn't mind buying the DVD to keep. Congratulations to the cast and crew.

My wife and I saw Deep Gold over the weekend at the Crest Theater in LA. Being an independent film, you never know what to expect. We were particularly intrigued to learn that it was both an action film as well as a 3D film. (Perhaps the first independent 3D feature film ever made.) Both action and 3D are very ambitious attributes for they typically exceed the independent film budget. The script had some unexpected twists and turns that kept the story going. To be fair, it also had some minor flaws, but overall who cares when the screen is filled with attractive women and stunning views. Personally I think I would have enjoyed the movie more if it were not in 3D, but that is personal preference. Some of the actors were better then others, but overall way better then the average independent film. Michael Gleissner, who also wrote and directed the film, made a surprisingly good villain. The soundtrack was exceptional, plenty of action scenes, solid plot, and beautiful footage. Deep Gold easily exceeded our expectations, and unlike almost every major studio feature films today, Deep Gold never dragged and we were never bored. In summary, Deep Gold is a perfect film for a mindless weekend escape.
