Pablo S Una gran secuela que en mi opinión en algunos casos puede llegar a ser superior a la primera entrega. Es entretenida, tiene sus más y sus menos pero a pesar de su fracaso critico de y de taquilla es una película de culto que ha llegado a ser muy codiciada en el mercado. En resumen: tiene un gran reparto que no cuaja con la historia, guion aceptable y un buen final. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/03/25 Full Review Josh G This is a Jaws four scenario, not necessary, silly, poorly written and lacking suspense. Don't waste your time. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/18/23 Full Review Russ G Geez, was there ever a part that Michael Caine turned down? He's in THIS PoS? OK, Sally Field and the other B-list hacks, I can see, but Michael Caine was this desperate for a paycheck? Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review delysid d this disaster movie itself is a disaster. but then again so was most 70s disaster movies, including the swarm which also has micheal caine. and the towering inferno was good, but also infuriating to watch. so how can you separate crap from regular good shit? Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/22 Full Review Audience Member 1979: Needless sequel to "The Poseidon Adventure", as treasure hunters vs. robbers meet up at the wreckage of the sunken Poseidon to plunder the goods. Naturally, all get trapped in the wreckage and have to find a way out. Somehow, they find survivors still trapped in the ship. Hence, we have a retread of the original film. Some survive, some don't. OK for what it is, but it feels like deja vu all over again. Game cast, though. Look for an early Mark Harmon appearance. Stars: Michael Caine, Sally Field, Telly Savalas, Peter Boyle, Karl Malden Director: Irwin Allen. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member A poor rehash sequel to an average disaster film. Beyond the Poseidon Adventure is a boring disaster movie that does nothing new when compared to the last film and amazingly has even more boring cardboard cutout characters such as the rich Texan, the overprotective father, the old guy who doesn't want to make a fuss etc. How this ship was still floating after about nearly twenty explosions when combined with the first film is ridiculous. I still don't understand why the protagonists thought they couldn't go back the way they came when the antagonists easily did so. Sally Field takes the prize of being the most annoying character; saying how she was the head of this and that as some kind of comic relief at the most precarious times. I still don't understand what the audience was supposed to root for in Michael Caine; a character who was primarily interested in the treasures in the ship rather that the survivors and just happens to care about the survivors due to losing the money he was carrying with him. The only impressive thing is the production design which still holds up today. Overall, a rehashed plot with ridiculous writing and boring and cliched characters.
