03/19/2021 Tough crowd here. It's not shakespeare, that's for sure. I enjoyed it, tho. The acting was a bit stiff, but the flashbacks were effective enough and at least there was enough there to keep my interest, albeit on and off. Nothing original, but still worth a covid watch. See more 04/28/2019 This is about the worst acting I've ever seen in my life. If I was in a car accident with a group of people and we ended up under water with air to breathe, I am very sure that every single person would not be absolutely screaming and flipping out at the top of their lungs, panicking and trying to push the ceiling upward so that they have more room. I can see one person possibly reacting that way but not every single person in the car. People are not that stupid overall. This is going to fall into a Darwin category and if these people are that pathetic they will all surely die either in this car on your way home afterwards.

Can't tell but still 5/5 stars would recommend to everyone I know See more 01/27/2018 I thought the movie was fantastic! So many twists and turns from beginning to end! I thought the acting was phenomenal as well! See more Jason K 12/20/2016 Decent film, done correctly with only lacking interest in the overall screenplay as it appears to be abit stretched on premise verse enough story to fill runtime intercut with sub plots that dont really pan out- just bloat. See more 06/12/2016 Submerged itself drowns in the final twenty or so minutes, which are astonishingly misguided. When the main bad guy is finally revealed, it's a complete disaster. The actor starts using a sing-songy voice and delivering lines as though in a comedy. This is a far too common occurrence in low-rent thrillers. It's as though performers think they need to be witty-evil instead of just evil, so they go for this overly broad, borderline campy approach. Providing the name of the actor playing the villain would be a spoiler, but the guilty party gives one of the worst performances of the year. This person is so not-menacing that it sucks the life right out of the big finale. After the revelation of the bad guy, Submerged caps off with a â??surpriseâ?? twist that will be apparent in the first ten minutes to any viewer who has their eyes open, or is familiar with Roger Ebert's Law of Economy of Characters. (Google it.) Scott Milam's screenplay is at its laziest here, going for the obvious and predictable rather than for anything that might legitimately earn the audience's engagement. Then again, the whole film is pretty lazy. The techniques used to make it seem as though the car is underwater are effective, but that's about the only thing that works. There's a very cool little B-movie to be made from this premise. Submerged isn't it. See more Read all reviews
