I am back from seeing Posiedon… Which I must say was an interesting movie. At the outset I was amazed at the opening credits – this is a ship that I would love to go on a cruise on – well, apart from the fact that it eventually sinks. I dont think I am giving anything away with that statement since that is the whole point of the story. The designer of the ship spent some time to get the ship to look like some sleek modern racing car – with the upper births with their own private balconies.

The story was generally similar to the original film – with most of the key scenes copied. Some characters have been changed, but overall it is a copy of the original. Emmy Rossen who played Christine in the Phantom of the Opera was great in this movie. Then again you would expect her to be. The dissapointing thing with this movie I guess was the ending. I think the last couple of scenes needed a tiny bit more work, but apart from that it was an enjoyable show.

The one thing I would not suggest is watching this before going on an ocean cruise… I suspect it will give you nightmares, although then taking the cruise would be a great exercise in aversion therapy.
