Tony Scott Variety The script by Pen Densham and M. Jay Roach lacks the cohesiveness of its predecessor; here, the enemy, instead of Nazi Germany, is a vague, threatening, fascist-like bunch called Earthcore.

william k A sci-fi reimagination of Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat is OK as standard TV fare, but nowhere comes near the original. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member This is another great movie that has slipped through the cracks Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member This sci-fi twist on Hitchcock's Lifeboat is surprisingly well executed for what is clearly a low budget TV movie. I enjoyed this, both as an homage and as a reimagining with its own spirit. My only gripe concerns the probability of artificial gravity on an ill-kept escape pod. All things considered, that's a pretty small and pretty specific gripe. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member A strange Showtime late-night movie remake of Hitchcock's "Lifeboat", a close corner setting with eight survivors on a rudderless craft. It's adequately dark, substantially tense, and maybe a bit predictable, but I suppose I first saw it when I was twelve. Heinlein had a similar short story on the subject, this was an attempt to make this sort of "sci-fi without ray guns and explosions" work. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Hitchcock turns in his grave Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member obscure film i caught late night channel 4 - actually really really good, went straight out and found a copy Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
