Movie Reviews of Deep Rising
Movie Review: This movie really scared me
Summary: 5 Stars
When I watch a monster/horror movies I want to be scared. This movie does just that. It's not the most original story but it is great fun to watch. It builds the tension from the very first and gets scarier and more gory as the story progresses. You really have no idea what the monster really is until the classic scene where the hero confronts it. The special effects are excellent(expected) and original(rare). The movie is visually beautiful and the soundtrack is very good. I would like to have seen more development of the love interest between the two characters but that is not the reason you see a movie like this. Shakespere in Love this is not. This is a very fun movie with no redeeming value and there is nothing wrong with that.Movie Review: NOW, WHAT, INDEED!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
There is something unfailingly wonderful about this cheerful, bloody, kick-ass little movie...i usually like my horror straight, with no humor or goofy sidekicks, but this movie is the exception...and it all works. Famke (sp.?) looks great in a red dress, Treat Williams (what a Jack Kerouac look-alike, why no
movie bio all these years?) and Kevin Anderson are perfect, and the special F/X are horrifically effective...all the tentacles you'll ever need! Plus, who is the slimiest, the Anthony Heald character or the monster? Hell, I even love the ominous sound of the title. This vastly underappreciated gem deserves a wider audience...do yourself a favor and grab yourself a copy of the DVD...I just did.
Movie Review: A most wonderful bite of cheese
Summary: 5 Stars
Okay, if you're into deep meaning and subtitles this is not a movie for you. However, if you fondly remember the Saturday afternoon creature feature, you really should put this in your library. The plot is mostly predictable - goodhearted smuggler meets girl and must save her from large sea creature and money grubbing bad guy. There are some great gross scenes and Kevin McDonald is a classic comedy foil. This is an all around fun movie.Movie Review: "If the cash is there we do not care."
Summary: 5 Stars
An entertaining B-movie and a sign of things to come from director Sommers. Fast-paced, good performances from Treat Williams, Wes Studi, and, of course, the always beautiful Famke Janssen. Maybe not as good something like TREMORS, it does have that kind of feel and is a good ride. Don't look for more and you won't be disappointed. Is is just me or is Kevin J. O' Connor the human equivalent of finger nails on a blackboard?Movie Review: A great B-Movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
Deep Rising is a really fun film, filled with excitement, humor, and gruesome special effects. My only complaint is that the monster occasionally looked hokey, but most of the time it looked good. The movie is obviously set up for a sequel, but I doubt there's going to be one. The DVD only has a trailer and a recommendation list for extras, but the sound and picture are superb. Great score by Jerry Goldsmith.
