Movie Review by B Movie Ben

August 3rd, 2007

Hey, you promised me a sh*tload of fish!

Linda Greenlaw (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio): Blly? Get outta there! Come about! Let it- let it carry you out of there! What the hell are you doing? Billy! For Christ sake! You're steaming into a bomb! Turn around for Christ sake! Billy, can ya hear me? You're headed right for the middle of the monster! Billy?...

Linda Greenlaw: ... Oh, my God!

Despite the passionate plea by Linda, this film is almost without actors. It is the special effects, sound, and stunt work that characterize it.

Sure, it has George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, John C. Reilly, Diane Lane and more, but they are really secondary to the storm and the action of the ship and crew during that massive convergence of nature's power and fury.

Even those of us who see these monsters on land look in awe at their power and that makes for an enjoyable film.
