Deep Gold is a 2011 action film directed by Michael Gleissner and produced by Bigfoot Entertainment.[1] Filmed in and around the islands of Cebu and Palawan in the Philippines it stars Bebe Pham, Jaymee Ong and Laury Prudent.[2][3]
Amy Sanchez (Bebe Pham) is a champion free diver who breaks a crucial free diving record. Her boyfriend, Tony dela Cruz (Jack Prinya), an Air Force Pilot, mysteriously disappears along with his plane that carries gold worth millions of dollars that was to be taken to the Central Bank.[4][5]
Determined to unearth the truth, she goes off to find out what has actually happened accompanied by her sister Jess Sanchez (Jaymee Ong). She moves on her adventurous journey not knowing that she herself is going to get entangled in a trap of lies that will lead her to a much more complex conspiracy.[6][7]
Deep Gold received a majority of negative reviews.[citation needed]
Critic Brian Orndorf gave it "C" grade and wrote: "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."[8]
