Dan R 2002's 'Ghost Ship' promises a lot but delivers very little. SYNOPSIS: 'A salvage crew discovers a long-lost 1962 passenger ship floating lifeless in a remote region of the Bering Sea, and soon notices that its long-dead inhabitants may still be on board.' 'Ghost Ship' is famous for its opening scene but beyond that there's very little to celebrate. It's just a big standard 00's horror affair. Tropes aplenty, it's a cut-and-paste job that's more transparent than ectoplasm. If it's been in a recent horror film it's plundered here and for good use. Devoid of legitimate shocks and marred by a storyline which feels like it was written by a child. So bad it's good, the story meanders from one bloody set piece to another. B-list horror at its best. Worst. 5/10 Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/12/24 Full Review Dawn B Ghost ship - openning minute inferred how this filum was going to go. Stopped listening around that time and read me book b.utt. unfinished, shortly after. 1.11.24. 1/0. D.B. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/02/24 Full Review Dave C It's a lowkey, mediocre ghost tale with little to offer but the cutting down of the ship's patrons early on in the movie. Besides that, it's predictable drudgery for the most part, with only occasional spikes in intrigue Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/30/24 Full Review Blu B It's a poor rip off of something like Event Horizon. The biggest problem the whole way is the subpar acting across the board. No one not even Bryne is even close to good in this. The dialouge most of the time is just reciting plot expose or making dumb jokes. we are led to think Byrne will be the main character but Epps becomes it by the end and man she is terrible. She just has no emotion and delivers every line a in boring monotone phoned in way. No one has any chemistry, there all one dimensional, and I struggle to remember anyone beyond their surface level features. The cinematography outside of a cool opening scene isn't good. the CGI is terrible, the direction isn't good, the setting isn't memorable at all because everything is a brown rust or too dark, pointless jump scares and some scenes straight don't make sense. The music isn't good and everything else is terrible. This starts dividing the crew up as they explore the ship and it gets terribly jumpy with pointless subplots that lead to characters deaths that mean nothing. This is trying to be a Horror movie and action at the same time and it just never in the slightest makes it work. the music is never creepy or spooky or adreniline going. It's extremely forgettable. By the time the little Shining/Ring girl shows her the flashback of what happened on the ship it just straight gets incoherent and doesn't make sense. This starts out with such a simple premise and just completely loses logic which is crazy. It's not scary, the action isn't cool, it doesn't make sense surpisngly, and there is no reason anyone should see this. Skip It. Maybe with a better script and better acting this could work in a remake but I would'nt hold my breath. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Oaklee D I remember thinking this film was terrifying as a kid but re-watching it as an adult makes me realise it's just an enjoyably dumb fun, early 2000s horror B movie. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review David P Absolute rubbish, Netflix have let themselves down with this.
