Review of Poseidon (2006) by Kristofer S — 05 May 2015

This movie contains very great dazzling, thrilling and impressive visual and special effects, such as when the character Dylan swims beneath the burning oil and when the survivors manage to blloe their way out through the bow thruster tube.

Only a pity that there is almost no background story of the characters and that the rogue wave seems quite fake... Furthermore, Kurt Russell and the others deliver spectacular acting performances by swimming underwater and bringing sensation to it.

. Finally, Kurt Russell's character sacrifices himself by swimming to the control room of the bow thrusters and turning them off.. Only 6 passengers manages to survive by getting into an air raft and watch as the Poseidon sinks.

. Shortly, very good underwater scenes, reasonable acting in general and stunning effects, but a lack of background story and also completely different as a remake.. I mark it with a 6,5.
