Review of What Lies Beneath (2000) by Ms Amanda J — 28 Dec 2010
"What lies beneath" is as enjoyable now as it was ten years ago. With a mounting tension that makes the movie as it allows both Michelle Pfeiffer and Harrison Ford to flesh out their characters making them believable.
..until the final few scenes. The acting is good, Michelle Pfeiffer conveying genuine fear and rising panic and even Mr Wooden, Harrison Ford, relishes his role, one of his few as a villain. James Remar and the luminous Miranda Otto provide a Hitchcockian subplot worthy of the master himself.
Robert Zemeckir was on top form with this one. Masterful direction, tight editing and a stellar cast provide for a wonderfully entertaining hour and a half.
