...an old-fashioned and flat-out fun monster movie that benefits from Treat Williams' tremendously engaging lead performance.

Reviews for Deep Rising
It's Poseidon Adventure, Alien Resurrection, any heist movies, Jaws, and a little art house flick called Titanic all in one.

The South China Sea's answer to the Bermuda Triangle, but off-the-shelf acting and a hackneyed plot won't keep this oversized barge afloat.
