Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Gabriel Byrne replaced Brian Cox. more
Goofs:
Factual errors: Though the Antonia Graza is supposed to be an Italian ship, there are several glaring grammatical errors whenever Italian words are visible on screen. The most evident of these is the plaque sporting the phrase "Cabina di capitano" (outside the ship's captain cabin) instead of the correct "Cabina del capitano". Other visible errors include gibberish on a can of rat poison in the galley. more
Quotes:
[first lines]
Greer: I can't hold her much longer, Murph. Port bow is heeling. She's taking on way too much water.

forget that cruise you always wanted!, 21 January 2004
7/10
Author: susanxx from Manchester, United Kingdom

This films best bits are in the special effects and those moments when you jump out of your seat. The opening sequence lulls you into a false sense of calm, from then on its guess the scenario. The viewer is always two steps ahead of the actors but, for the most, grips you nevertheless. The special effects are especially good and the acting, although no top-notch stars are evident, is not bad. The end is a real twist. Better to watch this than many others I could mention, certainly worth the video rental and a pizza.
