OK, I rented the stupid movie "Open Water" because of a recommendation on 
V2020 so I think recommendations on here are invalid.

Open Water was one of the worst movies I have every seen. It was not even 
"Revenge of the Toxic Avenger" or "Brady Bunch" bad, because even those 
movies were funny because they were so bad.

This movie insulted the intelligence of every one that watched it. The 
acting was horrible and the characters had inconsistent personalities. The 
first 25 minutes of the movie had nothing to do with the plot, story line, 
or the remaining 55 minutes of the movie, you could just fast forward and 
miss nothing.

Even the production was bad in that you sometimes could not hear the person 
speaking over the background noise when you were suppose to be able to.

I would like to take the director of this movie and leave him out in the 
open water so we do not have to deal with such a horrible waste of time and 
money again.

Take Care,

Donovan J Arnold
