Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development. To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met: Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.) Film infobox ({{infobox film}}) Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.) Plot summary Include cast and crew information. At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.) Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))  Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

whats up NPOV issue: what evidence is there that the couple is married?

It's clearly implied in several lines within the movie. Pay attention, honey. 216.184.122.12

How about you tell us the lines in question, instead? Because I don't remember any such implication, either. However, on the DVD, there's a deleted scene in which the two talk about getting married as a future event. (Her: "How would you feel about an island wedding?" Him: "I'm sorry, I thought I just heard you say the word 'wedding.' ") 205.188.117.11 00:26, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

I watched the actors' commentary for the last scene, where they comment that alot is open to interpretation, including whether or not they are married - can't swear though that there is anything in the movie that concludes it for sure one way or the other, besides the aforementioned deleted scene.--Tonkytonk 15:35, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Neither of them wear wedding rings in the movie, and IIRC it's implied that they live separately, plus they have different last names. It is possible that they are married but I don't believe that there is enough in the film to draw that conclusion.

• In the scene where their belongings are found, is also shown their Hotel ID cards.

Both names are different-and had they been married-the surnames would have been the same. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.53.145.202 (talk) 14:54, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Do they survive?

What exactly happens in the end, anyway? More spoilers, please! Fergananim 21:22, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sequel?

I believe I just saw an ad for a sequel. Should that be referenced here?

Probably not. The sequal has no relation to the original movie. not even the same writers. I think a hollywood studio just saw the script for 'adrift' floating about and said "hey, we'll make that if we can call it open water 2" —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.78.84.7 (talk) 04:56, 27 February 2007 (UTC).

Unfortunately it's not up to critics to decide what is and isn't a sequel. If the studio is calling it Open Water 2, it's a sequel. If it's a poor sequel, that is a different issue. Ham Pastrami 04:18, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
