Goofs:
Miscellaneous: A tidal wave originally planned was removed from the film, but not entirely: - The wave can be seen briefly in a few frames as the police van arrives near the film's end. It hits the van, which begins to fall over. In the next shot, the van merely swerves into the building. - Richard Santoro mentions a recurring dream about being back in the tunnel underwater; but since the tidal wave sequence was taken out, he was never underwater in the first place.

Most of the elements in this film are in place, but something still seems empty. Despite excellent atmosphere and an original setting/plot line, Snake Eyes is predictable (without ruining anything, it's obvious Sinise is the bad guy) and nothing more than two hours of wasted time.
It's a treat for your eyes, but it's missing both a heart and a mind.
