Very typical action movie. Nothing really interesting, just pass the time.

Good action movie. Dolph Lungdren and Jean Claude are good in the movie.

Uh yeah, Black Water won't win any awards or anything. It is derivative, low budget, with a weak supporting cast, and let's be honest, JCVD hasn't been in many good movies lately (saving perhaps 'JCVD'). There is a plot of sorts, but think 'Die Hard on a submarine'. And not a very realistic submarine. All that said, seeing Dolph and JC back together is cute, and it has a few engaging scenes.

Dolph is having a little fun while collecting his paycheck, but Van Damme is clearly bored.

Black Water has nothing that makes it memorable in time as an action movie, poor acting and very simple action scenes bury it in oblivion.

Criminal negligence of Dolph is far from Black Water's only sin, but it might be its most egregious.

Rated: 1/5

A mediocre submarine thriller that only really comes to life when co-star Dolph Lundgren gets to one-up the Muscles from Brussels.

Rated: 1.5/4

Radio Times

Overall, it's cheap but far from cheerful, with a minimum of contrived plot giving way to dull, repetitive action scenes staged in unconvincing sets.

Rated: 1/5

There's probably just enough here to please fans of Van Damme and Lundgren, but it's not a big stand out entry in either of their later careers.

A thoroughly forgettable formulaic action movie.
