oh my goodness. i don't review movies that haven't watched, and i watched this one. having watched it, i asked myself 'why?'.two reasons:one, gabrielle anwar is extremely attractive, and i hope that her participation in this 'ed wood special' does not harm her career, because i would like to keep seeing her (sort of like a betty grable pin-up, a farrah fawcet poster, she is indeed an attractive human).two, it is as bad (or as good, if you like) as ed wood's movies. (for you young'uns, ed wood made a string of amazingly ludicrous sci-fi movies in the old days) this movie just barely qualifies on this level. i mean, they use credibility as a bungee cord, as something to be streeeetched to try to save the poor writing/poor budget/lack of imagination/poor acting.but above all, (since there is nothing else to take as important in this film) baldwin has the worst haircut in the history of film, one which he has used in at least one other film. ¡hello! ¡goodbye!catch it cable, don't pay to rent- my goodness, it's worthless. 'plan 9 from outer space' does it better, and is equally *realistic*. but it's true, ms. anwar is indeed prettier than 'Vampira'.alvink, xalapa, veracruz, mexico
I sat back to view this with very little expectation. I am a sucker for anything underwater. It's your typical "the competent people are trapped and need to be rescued from the misfit group" type story. Gabrielle Anwar is the highlight of the movie while Baby Baldwin is its nadir. He proves that the acting gene in his family decreased with the birth of each child.Still, the movie is fun in a brainless way. The best visuals are of the ice caps from beneath.
This isn't a bad movie at all. If you allow for some fairly "reality check plot gaps" and lack of special effects (compared to other genre movies), the movie is a pretty good suspense thriller.I am slowly warming to Stephen Baldwin and Gabrielle Anwar I could watch all day. Tom Conti is also good.Take a look at this one, you may be pleasantly suprised
This film was a gagger. Why is it that the sailors here seem to be helpless? And the technical details; they must have been filmed like this for laughs. Green reactor coolant? A man dying from radiation exposure due to a coolant leak? Give me a break!
