Yeah, Open Water is tragedy on a more intimate scale maybe? I think it was good, but I do agree with you, good but not necessarily powerful. Not the type of film I would watch again and again.
I had an art history teacher once who I think summed it up well. She said a good film is an experience, you become so immersed in it that when you are leaving the theater you have this sense of "re-entry" to the real world.
That's the type of feeling I look for in a film.
Grey Zone? I had never even heard of it before, but I just looked up a review and I am definitely going to watch that soon, perhaps next weekend.
I'm currently reading "The Holocaust" by Martin Gilbert. Talk about depressing...

Agreed, the grey zone was an amazing (and very moving) movie

The best "water flick" is definitely le Grand Bleue. Period.
The best "blue flick" is Betty Blue - but that is not about the ocean at all. Except for that house in the beginning where... eeehh... Nevermind.

Reminds me of Creepshow, the first one I think. That one was really good in a cheesy way. The movie is like 3 little horror movies within a movie. There was one of them where 2 couples were stuck on a floating dock with this black oil slick swimming circles around it. They would get caught in the black muck and it would suck them down. The black muck even slithered up through the slots in the boards and grabbed the girl's face while she was sleeping.
