Reviews

"If you are craving a film fill of beautiful landscape, gorgeous people and non-stop action, this is your film! It fortifies the message, "WATCH YOUR BACK, TRUST NO ONE, TAKE NO CHANCES!" Deep Gold is an action packed adventure movie written and directed by Michael Gleissner. Filmed entirely in and around the exotic islands of Cebu and Palawan in the Philippines, Deep Gold 3D showcases explosive action, daring underwater photography and alluring international model-actresses such as Bebe Pham, Jaymee Ong and Laury Prudent. Deep Gold 3D showcases conspiracy, insidious deception, untold troubles, mysterious adventure, and relentless passion to fight all the tribulations, stay alive, and move forward. It brings you several chases that make your hands move and check if you are really sitting in the chair or running with the characters of the film." - Yahiko

"Not a film of intelligence or logic, but something candied to offer a few moderate thrills for audiences who prefer their action thick-fingered and cheesy, sold by a good-looking cast with little to no acting ability." - Brian Orndorf, brianorndorf.com

"I saw this last night at the Crest in Westwood and what a waste of time! Other than actress Jaymee Ong, the rest of the acting was abysmal and I think they had to use a voice over for the main character (Bebe Phem) as well as several other characters, Its very off putting. Also the director Michael Gleissner acts in the film, which I think is a bit vain; the guy clearly can't direct, never mind act. Other than Jaymee Ong's acting, this film as very few plus points. The 3D element was cool, particularly as this is an indie, and the setting (The Phillippines) is beautiful. Other than that, avoid this, it's awful!" - Lloyd S.

Determined to discover the truth, Amy goes off with her sister to find out. Is Tony actually dead? Or if not, is the man she loved really part of the plot to steal the gold?
