In regard to the real-life survival story and the extraordinary feat of the Icelandic fisherman, Guðlaugur "Gulli" Friðþórsson, Baltasar Kormákur's "The Deep" faithfully recreates the maritime tragedy of the ageing vessel, Breki, when on 11 March 1984 capsized near the Westman Islands, in the notoriously rough waters of the unforgiving North Atlantic. Among a small crew of six men, the cheerful, overweight, and utterly unassuming Gulli summons the strength to fight the omnipotent forces of nature, swimming back home for six hours in frigid and deadly waters. But, how on earth did he manage to cheat an impending deep hypothermia? Was it a matter of sheer determination, pure chance, or was it a case of an unfathomable mystery?

Djúpið (2012) Reviews

  • For Those in Peril on the Sea

    Based on a true story, this is a gripping tale of how an Icelandic sailor survives a sinking. The director really has a firm idea of the values and lifestyles of the sailors on this boat. The psychology of survival is demonstrated in imaginative ways, those choices that must be made in milliseconds and made correctly. The flash back scenes of what happened in the seaside town are done imaginatively. The choice of grayish tones and the weather beaten look of the boats adds to the gravity of the story as well as the impersonal and cold scientific team that handles the enquiry. We are reminded of the simple, but dangerous lives that many people have to live. They do so with dignity.

  • The Deep

    If you asked me half way through this film what I thought of it, I would of probably been indifferent and gave it 6 or so stars yet by the time it had finished I was utterly captivated. They played it just right! I absolutely adore how we saw both the run up to the event, the actual event then the aftermath. It made it so much more real to the audience. The real life clips, which they show during the credits at the end, also made a huge impact on the audiences at the showings I saw. The actor who plays Gulli could of easily been related to the actual Gulli. Speaking of the actor who plays Gulli, Ólafur Darri Ólafsson, simply gave a performance of a life time. I believed every word that came out of his mouth and even in the times of silence were his acting was all physical, I couldn't take my eyes of him. This film really does stay with you and I have not stopped thinking it over since I saw it over a week ago. Really quite superb.

    The Review: Based on a true story, The Deep is a very simple, but incredibly moving film. There's nothing really out of the ordinary when it comes to Gulli. He's a chain smoking, hard working man, who lives a rather uneventful life with his friends. It's this seemingly tedious lifestyle that makes the tragic ship accident so much more powerful. When Gulli does his best to rescue his friends, and eventually is left in the ocean alone, it's his rather normal life that shows what a regular person can be capable of to survive. Audiences don't just watch Gulli bobbing around in the ocean for the entire film, although it certainly creates some of the most tense scenes of the movie. When Gulli finally finds his way home, this is where the real challenges start to appear. Hailed as a hero for what Gulli views simply as trying to stay alive, he quickly becomes a science oddity. One scientist convinces Gulli to basically be studied in an attempt to find out how he survived. At first, Gulli almost seems excited to be considered different, but he quickly realizes that it's not important how he survived, only that he did and his friends didn't. When Gulli finally returns to his home, the film becomes intensely emotional. While out in the ocean, Gulli made a number of promises, reasoning with God to give him just one more day. He begins to make good on those promises, and it's impossible to not become teary eyed. When Gulli visits the home of one of his friends who died on the boat, and consoles his wife and children, you'd be better off bringing some tissue with you to stop the waterworks. It's an amazing performance from Ólafur Darri Ólafsson as Gulli, and a stunning film from director Baltasar Kormákur. This will stay with you for sometime after viewing.

    Even as a viewer and even though you might feel at times like it, I'm pretty sure you won't be able to quit. And while that is not nearly as impressive as what you'll see in the movie (and after the movie is over, even in the special features of your disc hopefully), the movie shows you what endurance is about. While there are no clear answers to some questions, the movie has a strong will just as one main character also does. You might feel indifferent in the middle of it (like another reviewer wrote), but I'm pretty sure you won't be by the end of the movie. It's just impossible not to be impressed by what actually did happen. Very well played and very well shot indeed

    From time to time a film comes up that should be seen by anyone interested in a particular aspect of film-making. There have been films that bordered on the banal but anyone interested in or involved with camera work couldn't afford missing. Same with the use of music. Or the art direction. Even casting directors could learn a couple of things from watching certain films. "The Deep doesn't border on the banal. It's an honest, cleverly made film with good chances of satisfying a wide range of viewers. But one aspect of this somewhat unexpected film makes it a must: the amazing performance of Ólafur Darri Ólafsson, an American-born actor who has lived and worked most of his life in Iceland where, as we learn from his IMDb page, he is considered a major force of that country's theater. As Gulli, the fisherman who surprises everybody by being the only survivor of a shipwreck under conditions in which no human being could possibly live to tell the story, this truly extraordinary actor comes up with a flawless performance. For anyone involved with acting, especially film acting, his work is an inspiration. I've been an actor all my life. But I could never understand, when it happens, how and when pettiness creeps into the actor's work. How come even great actors sometimes seem to have been possessed by what is ultimately dishonesty, the indiscriminate use of cheap tricks, gimmicks meant to create the illusion of an intensely emotional performance. Some actors are perfectly conscious of doing it. Most are not. It's impossible to detect the moment when it begins. Watching Ólafur Darri Ólafsson as Gulli, the survivor in "The Deep" is like attending a Master Class given by a truly great actor. There would be plenty of opportunities to use gimmicks and cheap tricks. But there isn't one single moment when he does it. His performance is one hundred per cent true. It's as honest and natural as the awesome performances great directors of the Italian realism managed to get from non- actors like the lead in "The Bicycle Thief." SPOILERS AHEAD. STOP READING HERE IF YOU DON'T WANT THEM. For anyone interested in great acting, two scenes in the film are like solid gold. Watching them is watching the work of a perfect actor. In the hospital, when asked how he found the energy to swim six kilometers in the cold sea, he says that all along he kept talking to the seagulls. We know it's true because we saw it early on. But his recollection of it is very moving, because it's done simply and with tremendous truthfulness. Then there's the scene in which he visits the family of his colleague, one of the first to die, sits on the floor and talks to his two boys. One of them says their mother told them their father was with God. They want to know from him if it's true. The way he handles such a difficult challenge is a great moment in film acting. "The Deep" is a good film. But even if it didn't have so many qualities, the dignity, the unyielding commitment of its leading actor to his art would make it unforgettable.
