Thanks for the memories!

Sadly Over-hyped

How sad is this?

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

As soon as you read the synopsis, you immediately think of all disaster movies that have gone before. Titanic, Poseidon, even the Day after tomorrow. A ship capsizes yet all the lights stay on, everyone still manages to walk upright and you will hear the worst English accent ever! I also cannot believe that in all this mayhem a couple of passing sharks manage to actually get into the upturned vessel as well and then get a tasty meal from some bad guy possibly the best actors in the whole film. Don't waste your electricity and go and clean out your vacuum cleaner instead, much more entertaining.

In my opinion, this movie is not good. I hardly find a good thing to say about it, but still I would like to explain, before I conclude it is just another bad movie.I decided to watch it because Costas Mandylor is starring in it, and that was the main reason I watched it till the end. I like action movies, and I understand that such movies are built on the action rather than the story. I know they don't go into details when it comes to the credibility of the story and the events, but even that does not explain why some scenes, just because they lack the sense of reality, look ridiculous.At the beginning, the movie looks quite promising: a tough, good looking specialist and his not so tough but smart and funny partner must do a job, which turns out a bit different than they expected. The story takes place on a cruise ship. A disaster happens, the ship is turned over, and only a few are left alive. During their struggle to survive they have to escape a shark, a professional killer and the rising water.Furthermore, the movie is quite violent. The main weapon (beside the disaster which already took out most of the passengers) is the gun, which is successfully used in many cases. I personally missed a good man to man (or woman to woman if you prefer) fight. Family fun? I don't think so.All in all, I think this movie was shot in a hurry, without a real vision what it is trying to say. Made of the usual action movie tricks, with a bit of something called love, and without a real meaning, it just results in a bad movie.

no one can deny that Coastas Mandylor is one of a kind. he is such an adorable, amazing and talented actor. I don't know how some people think that this movie was an Awful movie. I saw this movie over 5 times and I'm ready to see a hundred times. even my little sister thinks that it is a good and interesting movie. so if you really want a movie that is suitable for the whole family then you may watch Intrepid. it is also worth mentioning that his movie" just dessert"was given the award for best family movie of the year, that alone is something that not many people in the acting world get !!!!!!! I also think that costas has his own way of expressing the themes of his movies, not just with his good looks but with his acting talents as well.... Hollywood must be blind if it cant see that this Australian is worth a milllllllllllllliiiiiiiiiion dollars!!

I agree with the other handful of unfortunates who grimly sat through to the end of the movie. The only person missing from the cast of a movie like this is Michael Dudikoff; although had he been listed in the credits then I would have KNOWN not to rent this movie.It's a shame. Looking at the cast suggested that they could have done better. But I'm not prepared to waste mental energy asking why.
