The plot: A well-to-do husband who allows his wife to have affairs in order to avoid a divorce becomes a prime suspect in the disappearance of her lovers.
Deep Water was not so good.
Pros: I did enjoy the first quarter of this film & hearing the child sing in certain moments.
Cons: I was getting bored as the film went along. The talents of Ben Affleck & Ana de Amas were wasted on this film. This is described as a thriller but I didn’t find it thrilling at all, in fact I found most of this film boring and repetitive.
I would skip this one.
Rating: 1 out of 5 Stars
