I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Among other mis-wrought contrivances in this horribly-designed film was the mid-script change in the female lead from Rosanna Arquette to Kara Glover (what? you didn't notice that?). I love John Savage and Stephen McHattie (have for years) but they're the only +s in this 'minus' film. In addition, there were many (too many) technical flaws from the outset and throughout this movie, including badly-contrived love scenes (mostly non-existent), extremely poor camera work and editing, poor script management, terrible continuity and timing, extended frames which shouldn't have been extended. The only thing I can recommend is the 'lighting' (nicely done!)

Jessica Martorana's comment below tells you pretty much everything you need to know about "Caribe". I can stand a lot of things in low-budget action films, there is only one characteristic they MUST avoid: being boring. Unfortunately, "Caribe" is very boring. After all, there is only so much walking in the jungle / kayaking in the river one can take before losing interest, no matter how beautiful the locales may be. Stephen McHattie plays a reprehensible enough villain, but the two leads are not very charismatic, although Kara Glover does run / climb / swim / get covered in mud capably. Gore fans may also appreciate a gratuitous heart removal scene. Not a film to seek out. * out of 4.

Well, Caribe may not qualify for a superior action thriller but it does have one good point - The mayan ruins and the tropical beauty of Belize, where 90% of the movie has been shot. The photography is truly outstanding and the scenery is more than enough to watch this movie. And if you can get hold of a new CD or DVD, you'll agree to what I mean.

Two explosives specialists who work together are involved in a scam down in Belize. They travel there to make the deal, but do not realize they are being followed by a British Secret Intelligence Agent (John Savage). The agent comes upon the dealers and soon bullets fly, causing the explosives expert Helen (Kara Glover) and the Intelligence Agent Jeff (Savage) to flee for their lives. While Helen and Jeff hide in the bush, they soon fall for one another and eventually hatch out a plan to wipe out the explosives dealers all together. In obliterating the dealers, they also detonate the explosives and later Helen realizes she will be a wanted woman back in the states. With Jeff's help, she obtains a new identity and he says that he will take care of her no matter what happens.Aside from the beautiful scenery of the tropics, this was a totally boring movie. The plot dragged on as I fast forwarded through much of the dreadful dialogue. Maybe had there been a better explanation of the characters and a more exciting plot it would have been a more interesting movie, but I doubt it.
