In the early twentieth century, shipping lines competed to be the fastest to complete a transatlantic crossing. But among the most famous record-holders was the RMS Queen Mary, which held the record for fourteen years, but now stands encased in concrete at Long Beach, California, where it has been used for many years as a luxury hotel and tourist attraction. The ship has a lengthy history of visitors reporting seeing ghosts and visions in its rooms and on its decks, making it the perfect setting for paranormal goings-on on the big screen. In The Queen Mary, a haunting story is unraveled between the ship's heyday in the late 1930s and the present and tells the story of two families whose lives become violently entangled.

There’s some real dramatic heft at play here – but the bloated running time drags it down, and lots of spooky business in the back half might have been better jettisoned overboard to gain speed. Go to Full Review

An elegant way to exploit the legend of a ship reduced to a fairground attraction. Go to Full Review

I enjoyed how DIFFERENT “Haunting of the Queen Mary” is, despite its flaws; the best I can say is that it's not generic, and that they should give more opportunities to both Alice Eve as a protagonist, and Gary Shore as a director. Full review in Spanish. Go to Full Review

Although it is far from being a genre masterpiece, Haunting of the Queen Mary comfortably meets the challenge of offering a simple but well-made movie. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

…Gary Shore’s well-upholstered film is more ghost story than horror, with twin narrative time-lines offering up something a little deeper than the usual jump-scares associated with the genre… Go to Full Review

This supernatural voyage, although atmospheric and frequently frightful, runs aground narratively. Go to Full Review

Richard W Nov 11 It was just way too incoherent ,unfortunately all the bad reviews are correct here ,cant understand the high ratings See more Ry H. @RyGuy Jul 23 I thought the idea of binding the ship with a serial killer was interesting but the movie as a whole was a sunken ship. See more Daniel J May 20 The movie is neither meat nor fish and unfortunately doesn't convince for a single moment. Alice Eve seems to have landed on B-movies in the meantime, her unwillingness to do so is permanently noticeable. See more Carla R Apr 15 Give me my two hours and 4 minutes back man 🫵🏻😠 See more Ronnay K Apr 4 Absolutely horrible. Didn't even watch til the end. Made no sense whatsoever See more Feb 9 A bad movie with good potential. This movie could have been better See more Read all reviews
