“A first class performance by newcomer Peter Bavis - Canada's answer to Philip Seymour Hoffman”

“The best film in the Toronto International Film Festival’s Short Cuts Canada program.” 

“A struggling real estate salesman (a superb Peter Bavis)”

“Deep Blue Sea affecting”

The Toronto Star,

“As for dramatic shorts by Toronto filmmakers, the strongest is Out in That Deep Blue Sea, an unsettling portrait of a middle-aged man failing to cope with challenges in his family life and career.”
