Bernard Drew Gannett News Service An action movie should have action, right? Nov 1, 2019 Full Review Fernando Trueba El Pais (Spain) The story is well constructed, full of tension and emotion, and features wonderful actors.

Sean A Heston is great in one of his best performances, bringing a nuanced human touch to the role of the captain. The rest of the cast is equally excellent. Highly recommended. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/11/22 Full Review andy f A classic 70s disaster movie. No filler, all action and so refreshing. Heston steers things along admirably. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review antonis k The cast is great the plot and the script? well not so much. (5/10) Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Not a bad movie , Heston is great. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Average disaster film, that is brought up a level by it's great cast. Not much action for an adventure/thriller, but it's slow burn gives you time to connect with some of these characters. Characters who seem a little too calm, given their predicament. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 05/03/18 Full Review Audience Member It takes a special kind of effort to make such an inherently dramatic story feel like a day in the office. What specifically? Too much lighting, unconvincing acting, and way too many missed opportunities - its only plot is what it says on the box, no side plots, no twists. Even the couple intense scenes it finally gets in the end have less tension than a dinner conversation in Das Boot. I think its only saving grace is its age, predating the latter. It's watchable, but in the end, I felt nothing at all, like after a long documentary on something boring (and it's very far from a documentary).
