MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

grahamhills For whatever reason I forgot all about the Poseidon remake until I saw the original 74 movie a few nights ago. So I felt it was time to give it a go.Poseidon is sunk the second it begins, horrendous CGI ship animation, then there is the script, or rather the lack of it. And somewhere along the lines the rest goes wrong.Nobody in the film is likable, everyone has a back story nobody cares about, and death treated matter of fact, with no mourning at all, let alone discussion. Someone dies, and there is not even a "oh my god they're dead" moment, its all just terribly bad, and despite the copious amounts of cash spent on the movie, it looks incredibly cheap.While it might be nice to fill a void of time, check there is not something better you can be doing with it.

LeonLouisRicci The Newness of the "Disaster Movie" was being Formulated in 1972 when the Original Charmed and Thrilled Audiences. That was Then and This is Now. There is Nothing New in this Remake. OK with CGI They can be More Spectacular the way the Obligatory Destruction is Displayed. But Ho-Hum.That Type of Spectacle is Done Weekly at the Multiplexes and it isn't So Much a Thrill Anymore, More of an Expectation. This Type of Thing is Supposed to Reveal Character Development and Personality Traits and Differences. None of that is Attempted Here Except in the Most Cursory and Clichéd. So Shallow is the Character Study that it would Drown in a Tea-Cup.The SFX are Somewhat Impressive, but Again, there's Not Much Else. The Movie is Likely to Fade From Memory and be Gone Like a Wave in an Instant. Mediocre, Mundane with Bursts of Action, and is Possibly the Most Forgettable Film of the New Millennium So Far.

Python Hyena Poseidon (2006): Dir: Wolfgang Peterson / Cast: Kurt Russell, Josh Lucas, Richard Dreyfuss, Emmy Rossum, Jacinda Barrett: Yet another Titanic episode where a ship sinks and nearly everyone dies. We know that most of them do survive, and they survive right in time as the ship finally sinks. One heroic figure survives after many life threatening rescue missions. At least one person dies while saving or sacrificing him / herself. And there will be an annoying kid who hides and nearly causes others to drown in their search. This film should sink down a toilet since it was about as fun as diarrhea. Director Wolfgang Peterson delivers on production but only seldom does he deliver a film of artistic context. He previously made such junk as Air Force One and The Perfect Storm. The special effects pass but hardly able to be as interesting as the conversations between restless viewers sitting around me. The cast includes Josh Lucas who will act as hero. Kurt Russell who will pay the price for risking his ass. Richard Dreyfuss who hopefully reflects upon a much better lost at sea film he was in called Jaws. Emmy Rossum plays a potential love interest and nothing more. This is the standard case of potential actors being lined up to take second billing to special effects. They are all briefly introduced and thrust into standard disaster clichés that sink faster than the boat itself. Score: 3 / 10

sgholbrook First thing to note is the CGI, animation and stunts in this film are top notch ! I love these sort of films, which provide a simple story, set in one location, yet the ideas in it are gripping ! This was done very well and in a great time limit too, some of the ideas kinda felt very mainstream but some others really stood out in their own way (whether that's how a ship actually works logically, I can't say) but I would like to imagine it does ! This was a fun casual film to watch.... Nothing bad or amazing about it, it's simply a movie worth watching. The time that went into creating sets for this must have been a LONG time, as considering most of the film the ship is upside down, the attention to detail of the background and the physics to it all had to be 100%. Didn't spot a fault with it myself, that took some doing ! Worth the watch, go check it out, even though I did watch it the day my parents left for their first ever cruise !
