Joe Leydon Variety 07/28/2019
A tepid VOD-ready melodrama that strikes faint echoes of Roman Polanski's "Knife in the Water" and Phillip Noyce's "Dead Calm" while ponderously padding 60 or so minutes of plot to feature length. Go to Full Review
Rex Reed Observer 07/26/2019
2/4
Plot twists multiply, turning Dead Water into nothing more than one huge red herring in an attempt to distract viewers from the sorry fact that nothing of substance is really happening. Go to Full Review
Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 07/25/2019
None of the performers are able to bring life to their schematic characters, although Nelson appears to be having fun as a modern-day pirate. Go to Full Review

3/5
A sea-set thriller that bobs along nicely in spite of some rocky narrative decisions. Go to Full Review

5/10
... the filler in between the tension gave time for all of that apprehensiveness to drain away. What's left felt more like an anchor than a buoy. Go to Full Review

Angelo C 03/11/2024 I don't know what you guys are talking about but this is a good movie good acting good action and a great plot. You guys should get another job. See more Cork B 01/11/2024 Not horrible... the film does a good job building tension. But then creepy Judd Nelson shows up and the final act kinda falls apart into nonsense. See more 05/25/2021 Shallow tale of betrayal at sea in yet another Marine puff piece. See more Isaiah Y 05/04/2020 Mediocre acting and directing as well as a really weak screenplay that's not even entertaining. See more 01/15/2020 It never took off. I watched at least half of it waiting for something notable to happen but after that I kept falling asleep. Not worth watching. See more 09/22/2019 The basic concept wasn't very original - but the way it was played out was...rouuuugh. Not much to it. See more Read all reviews
