When he learns that the artifact -- a valuable sculpture -- is being stored on a heavily guarded ship, Bates hires a team of mercenaries to hijack the vessel.

Emanuel Levy EmanuelLevy.Com Rated: 2/5 Aug 11, 2005 Full Review Nate Yapp CinemaBlend I won't even discuss the dozens of stupid screenwriting blunders, the one-dimensional characters, or the simple idiocy with which the whole film was executed.

Audience Member The write up is very misleading - it aint a cruise liner, its a ferry and it aint the sub that ruptures the fuel tanks on the ship, there's a gun battle on the car deck and a truck explodes. I can tolerate dodgy effects and a certain amount of passable, hammy acting but when a story is so poorly put together as this - that's what really lets a film down. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member [b][b][b] [b][size=2]I did not escpect much from this movie.[/size][/b][/b][/b][/b] [b]and the plot was a bit simpel[/b], [b]even so the effects was surprisingly well made. And the movie isn't borring. So as a 온라인카지노추천 movie it's ok. But don't buy it for your DVD collection. [/b] Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
