This film is a remake. Although I haven't seen the original, I admire the director of the original. It was very difficult to make a disaster film when the computer stunts were still underdeveloped at that time . The new version of Poseidon is directed by Wolfgang Petersen, who has directed Troy, The Perfect Storm, and Air Force One.
The film succinctly explains several protagonists of the film and their relationship (of course, a few will die in the escape). Soon, the captain discovered the huge wave. This wave can be said to be "there is no ancient wave before, and no one will come after", "the sky and the moon are boundless", and the
huge . upside down. However, I have always had a question. Now that technology is so advanced, can such a huge wave be unpredictable? Even if the ship did not predict it before going out to sea, the huge wave has already formed at sea, can it still not be detected? Forget about so much, anyway
, a bunch of people with a little back came across it. Then the protagonists made a grand appearance, because they didn't want to be trapped in the boat and wait to die, they ignored the captain's obstruction and found a way. The group includes a gambler, the former mayor of New York City, his daughter and daughter's handsome boyfriend, a waiter, an old man (don't pay attention to what he is
doing ), a female stowaways, a single mother and her children, a Alcoholics (which came later). In the process of finding the way, the waiter died first, and he gave others the chance to survive, but he fell into the elevator shaft and fell to his death first, burned to death, and was finally
crushed to death by the rapidly falling elevator. Then there's the alcoholic, who angered God by mocking the former mayor, was killed by a machine that suddenly fell, and died in the fire. The third person who died was the stowaways. When diving to a safe place, something caught his clothes and drowned. The smuggling failed. The last person to die was the former mayor,
who drowned after the stop button was pressed to turn off the only way out, the propeller. In the end, the rest of the crew escaped through the mouth of the propeller and were lucky enough to find a life raft. A boat full of people, only six people survived, the tragic degree is far greater than Titanic.
Poseidon can be regarded as a medium-sized entertainment film. The plot arrangement is compact and smooth, and it has an immersive feeling, but it lacks new ideas and steps into the cliché of disaster films.
