A visionary epic of obsession and beauty about Jacques Mayol, the handsome diver who is so at home in the water that he seems only half-human. Jacques' best friends are a family of playful porpoises and Enzo Molinari, his swaggering Italian diving rival. Jacques and Enzo grew up together in the Mediterranean, and remain lifelong friends despite a fierce battle for the top prize in the world free diving championships, where divers compete to see who can descend to the furthest depths of the sea with no equipment other than their own courage and determination. But when the dreamer Jacques falls in love with the beautiful Johanna, he finds himself torn between the damsel and the deep blue sea.

Luc Besson's first English language film stars Jean-Marc Barr as Jacques Mayol, a man whose soul-searching takes him to extraordinary depths. Literally. He's a free diver, pitting his body against the sea as he plunges further down into the unknown of The Big Blue without the aid of breathing apparatus.

His greatest rival, and best friend, is Enzo Molinari (Jean Reno). Since childhood they have competed against each other. For lusty Enzo, the sport is just that and he becomes World Champion. But for Jacques, free diving has a more metaphysical importance. Pushing his body to the limit he achieves a trance-like clarity of experience in the blue silence of the deep. Still, when Enzo invites Jacques to the World Championships at Taormina, Mayol cannot resist the challenge and the pair embark on an increasingly dangerous competition that inevitably ends in tragedy.

Besson's third film (after The Last Battle and Subway) was panned on its release as so much style over substance, and indeed, the plot is repetitive and the characterisation meagre. But Carlo Varini's stunning, globe-trotting photography, Eric Serra's pulsating score and Barr's looks help elevate the film, while Rosanna Arquette adds extra eye-candy as the love interest.

A hypnotically beautiful and metaphysical delight.

Cut by 49 minutes and released with a new score, French director Luc Besson’s 1988 movie "The Big Blue" has not been seen very often in its original version here in the US. Thanks to Columbia TriStar Home Video we now have a beautiful version of the movie that allows us to witness the director’s original vision in all its glory.

Besson’s film "The Big Blue" plays like a love letter to the Sea. In beautiful images, this movie follows the life of two friends who grew up together in Greece - although one of them is Italian and the other French. Both have a fascination with the ocean and free-diving in particular. Enzo (Jean Reno) is the world champion in free-diving, going from one competition to the next for a living, when he is not using it to rescue divers in need, only to prove to himself and the world that he can hold his breath longer than anyone else, and that he can dive to depths no other man can. Jacques (Jean-Marc Barr) on the other hand is not very competitive and uses his incredible diving skills for science. He supports studies that try to find out what give him this rather unique ability.

One day Enzo challenges Jacques to participate in the world free-diving competition and what follows is a dramatic race when these two men become obsessed with the idea of upping each other. Out of reach of the rest of competing divers, Enzo and Jacques set world records that no one but them can break.

"The Big Blue" is Luc Besson’s most poetic film and its visuals ooze sensuality and beauty. Whether it is the love story between Jacques and Johanna, nicely played by Rosanna Arquette, the dramatic competition between the two men, or just their common love for the ocean, Besson always captures the moments in vibrant images to create a very beautiful tapestry of emotions and sights.

It is great to see the full 168-minute long Director’s Cut of "The Big Blue" on DVD, together with the film’s original music score. Too many foreign movies are tampered with on a regular basis and Columbia TriStar’s increased efforts to release the original versions of these films on DVD certainly pleases DVD fans. Although the disc has some shortcomings, the movie itself is just so hauntingly beautiful and the presentation so good that no fan of under water films should pass out on this opportunity to see this big blue love letter to the Sea!
