The Abyss : My biggest thing

My biggest thing

I love this film and usually give it a rewatch every couple of years or so. My only issue with the film is why the heck Virgil didn't start swimming towards the rig immediately after the plan, instead of waiting until Lindsey drown and then go? I can only think the director wanted to play this out as dramatically as possible. If it was me doing the drowning I would have taken a deep breath while there was still air in the vehicle and then said swim for it!

Watched it last night for the first time really enjoyed it, i had the same thought, instead of just letting her drown attempt to atleast get half way so that you can resuscitate her easier

Re: My biggest thing

I know. What they did was beyond stupid.

Re: My biggest thing

Definitely agree with that. Or maybe he might have been concerned that he wouldn't be able to swim as efficiently if she was thrashing around and panicking.

So many stories, so little time.

Re: My biggest thing

Fuck that.

The wrong thing with this movie is the animal cruelty where they make the rat drown.
