Curse of the Mayans (2017)

Dr. Allen Green hires dive expert Danielle Noble to assemble a team of the best divers to go into the Yucatan jungle and explore some newly discovered underwater caves.  Green feels there are secrets to be found in these caves and he must have them.

One of Danielles men shows up with his girlfriend in tow, which is a really odd thing to do when you've been hired to do a job. No one is happy about this, but they need him for the trip so they take her along.

Green is supposed to be an archaeologist, but he doesn't act like one.  He drills into the temple floor. He ignores advice from local guides. He's basically a jerk who doesn't seem to care at all about anything other than getting everyone into that cave -which they aren't all that inclined to do based on advice from the guides and some strange happenings that occur the first night there.  Good god, it could be a curse!

When the group begins their dive, the caves hold many interesting things that have not been seen for ages. Unfortunately one is an alien who's been imprisoned and is prepared to wreak havoc on them.

This has some nice scenery, but ultimately it's pretty boring and didn't keep my attention. I actually zoned out and missed the ending. I'm going to assume that they all lived happily ever after. Either that  or the alien killed all but one of them.
