A sailing adventure spirals out of control in this tightly wound-survival thriller. 19-year-old Rose (Odeya Rush) lives a tough, small-town life in Florida with her single mother Alma (Saffron Burrows). Their luck seems to take a turn when Alma's new businessman boyfriend, Derek (Eric Dane), whisks them away on a sailing adventure to Bermuda. While at sea, Derek's "business" is revealed to be less than legitimate when their boat is attacked by savage villains, set on fire, and Alma is viciously killed. Distraught and persecuted by Derek and The Captain (Ray Liotta), Rose unearths a primal instinct of survival and a terrifying need for vengeance. She will not yield until those responsible for her mother's murder are dead.

An unsubtle and faintly ludicrous outing that at least is never boring.

Rated: 3/5

Common Sense Media

It has decent acting and cinematography, but this frustrating thriller is one of those movies in which the characters are either excruciatingly dim -- or terrible at hiding their true motivations.

Rated: 2/5

Dangerous Waters is a lot like an after-school TV special, only violent. Dubious, predictable, and short on character development, this B-movie cheesefest is nonetheless watchable thanks to a spirited performance from Odeya Rush (Lady Bird).

Rated: C-plus

Culture Mix

With horrendous film editing, Dangerous Waters (which is about a boat vacation that goes very wrong) has too many plot holes that are bigger than the ocean where much of this misguided story takes place.

There is a sense of comfort in its predictability, just as there is a sense of exasperation.

I’m convinced all the bad reviews are people who didn’t finish the film. Cuz I had absolutely no clue where this was going and man it took a serious turn holy smokes. Definitely escalated quickly in a sense. Took half the movie to show signs of where it was going but man what an ending. Love the female character starting as a new age sensitive scared of water always on the phone type of girl. Then slowly showing throughout film. Nope. I’m more than that. I’m a damn survivor and my daddy was a soldier ! I dig it. I was edge of my seat. I thought it was solid and the acting was good. Sometimes these no theater run films have cheesy acting. But not the case here.

A solid B-movie with a solider cast. Part family drama -part sea survival -part action movie. It changes gears frequently enough to never get dull and has a female protagonist that reacts and acts realistically to the situations, which can be a rarity in this field. Whilst it doesn't break any new ground in terms of story or techniques, it's a decent get away that will happily fill a lazy sunday.

The movie starts off ok and then it takes a dive through crazy land and never returns to reality.

I just can't understand what sense it made to start a film from the end, in the first second of the film you can see the protagonist telling what happened, I spectator in the first second of films I already know that the protagonist in any dangerous situation will however survive for You already showed me to the first second of the movie! however sufficient movie if we remove 2/3 scenes to say the least embarrassing
