Truly Dreadful Film

Highly Overrated But Still Good
Allison Davies
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

The movie actually positively surprised me. Seeing the rating I expected a lot less than it actually delivered. OK, the movie still isn't exactly the best. The highlight of the movie is Summer Glau, who managed to portray the confused, but still very rationally acting bride excellently. The movie might not be the best, but she did an awesome job, probably saving the whole movie. Besides her, I enjoyed the performance of Zoe McLellan, while Chris Carmack did a very poor job in the movie. It's clear that Lindsey didn't plan what happened on the ship, but after it happened, she tried to get the best out of it. I believe that she actually loved her cheating husband. ***SPOILERS***Quite a few clichés in the movie – bad guys again the ones from Eastern Europe (are there no bad guys in US?), the ship's captain doing everything and anything to keep the affair away from public, an FBI agent on leave but she's immediately in operation (and she's, what a surprise, divorced) and so on. Under the balcony on which everything happened there were no lifeboats. How come that the camera ended in a lifeboat? Did Lindsey hide it there? She would have to be extremely stupid to do so. She'd probably just toss it into the sea, gone forever.But, in the end
quite enjoyable little less than 90 minutes. I've seen a lot of worse movies and rating of 4,6 is too low for my taste. But I admit, that it's definitely not everyone's taste.

This better-than-expected Lifetime movie offers an intriguing story and excellent acting against an exotic backdrop.The Hawaii wedding of Lindsey and Trevor Forrest looks a little too good to be true, so it's no surprise to see it unraveling as soon as the newlyweds board their luxury cruise ship.Though the opening credits say this story isn't based on anyone in particular, it's reminiscent of a notorious case of some years back in which a bridegroom went missing on his honeymoon cruise.Summer Glau and Chris Carmack excel as attractive young people who seem to have it all -- till we notice that Trevor has a gambling and drinking problem that troubles his new wife. One quickly starts to question why these two tied the knot.Then, once Trevor goes missing, watching the shark-like negotiations that Lindsey foists on the ship captain, one begins to understand how Trevor's fortune may have played a role.As convincingly as Glau and Carmack deliver their performances, they're outshone by Zoe McLellen as Gwen, an FBI agent who happens to be vacationing on the ship. She does some excellent investigative work to come up with a plausible theory about how Trevor could have disappeared.This film ends on a chilling note that is exquisitely karmic.

I have seen a few movies and TV-series that stars Summer Glau, Terminator: The Sarah Connor chronicles, Serenity and The Cape. She does a terrific job with all of these character. And even in this low-budget movie she does a good character, but the problem does not seem to be Summer, but rather the male actor she is playing against. He is very 2 dimensional, there is no natural charm, no feelings expressed in the face and he seem to nervous and too rushed to get into character. I understand that this is a very low budget film, but even the directing and script is on par with such a low budget movie. I just wish the male actor was someone else, it would have risen the movie to another level.4/10 because of a good enough script and Summer Glau's performance.

Exciting, intriguing drama. A young couple wed with all the picture taking, happiness and a future laced with love. For their honeymoon, they embark on a cruise to Tahiti. It is on the trip that tragedy ensues. Our perfect couple were not perfect at all. Destiny played a hand that they would meet up with 3 ruthless guys. Everything seems to play into the hands of the real killer or killers. There is even an attempt at extortion on the part of the killer against the Cruise Line.This is a story of immaturity, greed, and a well-conceived plan by the killer to get away with this.There are sidebar stories such as a possible romance between a vacationing female divorced FBI agent and one of the captain's crew. This film will keep you guessing, but you should get it by the snide sneers of the killer.
