Audience Member O course it isnt as good as original "The Poseidon Adventure" from 1972. I have noticed, that there were some parts of the novel, not used in 72 and used here like the arguing family. There are a lot of interiors in the ship and if i were to choose the best set design i would definitly pic 2005 one. Cgi isnt the best especially the fire in one scene still the budget wasnt high so i didnt expect great one (it still isnt terrible) I love the ship design and beside all the logical errors the movie actually takes some time to build characters not like the 2006 remake. Overall i think it is a great movie, not as good at 1972, better than 2006, and despite having many mistakes but still cool to watch.

Probably best to just avoid Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member From Hallmark Entertainment comes The Poseidon Adventure, a rather cheap and poorly made updated adaption of Paul Gallico's adventure novel. When a terrorist attack capsizes the S.S. Poseidon during a luxury cruise a group of passengers band together and struggle to reach the outside; meanwhile the military attempts to find the missing ship and get a rescue crew to her before she sinks. The terrorist angle is a real WTF kind of curveball that creates all kinds of problems. However, most of the other changes aren't that bad and explore some of the characters that were left out of the Irwin Allen version. But the script is just awful and the acting is garbage (despite featuring some talented actors). Also, the digital effects and blue screen work are atrocious. Even by Hallmark TV movie standards, The Poseidon Adventure is pretty abysmal.
