Deep Rising

You really have to go into this movie with the right attitude. It's not a classic. It's not original. It's just fun.

Treat Williams is the biggest star in it as the mercenary boat driver. The people that hired him expect to board a cruise ship full of rich folks and rob it. When they board they ship, no one is there.

The special effects are pretty cool and some of the dialogue is funny. This review is short, but the movie is paper thin. It is a good time though. I give it a B-.
