Just like the original, after the "Poseidon" accident, seven or eight survivors found their way together. In the process of escaping, the life of the survivors is clear at a glance, and there are also touching scenes. Yes, this remake version of the movie lacks the in-depth description of the characters, and the audience does not have a deep understanding and affection for them, and the cruise ship has an accident . I remember that the original movie had a more in-depth introduction to the characters. For example, when the fat female swimmer was killed, everyone who watched it was in tears, but this time, whether it was Kurt Russell, or Jacina Barrett, or even Josh Lucas and the familiar Richard Dreyfuss , the characters were not able to have feelings for the audience. It is said that the special effects of the movie are good this time, which is not what I paid attention to. I
don't remember whether the original work also had an accident on the cruise ship so early in the film, this time I think it is too early, Ben I thought the captain and crew would have more roles, and the ball in the banquet hall could not achieve a strong contrast with the waves and the ominous omens.
Perhaps the original work has this magic, which makes fans like me blindly love the new version of the remake. , like fans of remake movies, I think those "King Kong", "Wars of the World", "Star Wars"Wait until the fans understand my feelings.
After reading the reviews of HK Magazine, it even gave "Poseidon" two stars ("Da Vinci Code" one!), which is too harsh. It's not that bad. I
want to talk about the actors in the movie, Richard Dreyfuss is very Mian Shan, it turns out that we have seen him often since the 1980s (he also appeared in many films in the 1970s), and the more familiar one is "Mr. Holland's Opus" (1995). Jacinda Barrett from Australia is also very good in appearance, Originally played "Ladder 49" (2004), she is more attractive with blonde hair, this time playing the mother, her appearance is not very beautiful. I am not familiar with one of the main characters, Josh Lucas, who played "Stealth" (2005), "Hulk" (2003), "Sweet Home Alabama" (2002), "A Beautiful Mind" (2001), he was not bad in the movie, I thought he was a villain. And in "Six Feet Under" Freddy Rodriguez, who plays makeup artist and partner Frederico Diaz in the 2004 film, has a small role. Kurt Russell and Emmy Rossum ("The Day After Tomorrow" 2004, "The Phantom of the Opera" 2004) performed well, but the movie didn't Make the audience feel emotional about the characters.
If you like the "Poseidon" in 1972, don't miss this new version. If you haven't seen the old version, don't expect too much.
