Dangerous Waters

Dangerous Waters is a film that promises thrills but delivers a yawn-inducing journey instead. With a running time of 100 minutes, it feels like a long, tedious wait in a queue where the end point is just as unexciting as the wait itself. The dialogue is muddled and forgettable, while the characters lack any spark of genuine emotion, making it hard to care about their fates. Watching this movie is like listening to a recital of the phone book - monotonous and uninspiring. So consider this review a kind nudge to skip this flick and choose a more rewarding way to spend your time. And if you do end up watching it, may the odds of staying awake be ever in your favor!

Wow. You could have left about 45 minutes of this crap on the cutting room floor. The story like was OK but it took FOREVER for anything to happen.

Odeya Rush was good in the lead. Too many unbelieveable things- things that would have killed any human in real life were just flesh wounds to the people the writers wanted to keep alive for later.

It's sad that Ray Liotta passed away during the filming but I have a feeling he wouldn't have been especially proud of this movie.

We stuck with it for the entire time but we are sure it would have been a much better movie had they cut out some of the boring nothing happening parts and tightened it up.

I recently watched "Dangerous Waters" (2023), and I must say that the film left me with mixed feelings. It started off with promise, piquing my interest with its intriguing premise. However, as the narrative unfolded, it hit a plateau, succumbing to a prolonged period of mediocrity. Just when it seemed like the story was treading water, it managed to regain some momentum towards the end, sparking my interest once again.

The overall experience was okay; it served its purpose as a way to pass the time, but it didn't offer anything exceptional. One glaring issue was the noticeable sag in the middle of the movie, creating a lull that tested my patience. Despite this, the film redeemed itself in the final act, injecting a renewed sense of excitement.

One standout aspect that deserves recognition is the lead actress's performance. I was thoroughly impressed by her portrayal, and I couldn't help but imagine how perfect she would be as Lara Croft in the reboot of the franchise. Her talent and charisma added a layer of enjoyment to an otherwise average movie.

In conclusion, "Dangerous Waters" is a passable cinematic experience that may entertain you for a couple of hours.

Rose (Odeya Rush) is hesitant with her mother Alma (Saffron Burrows) introducing new boyfriend Derek Stipes (Eric Dane). He is taking them on a trip on his sailboat. One night, men board the boat looking for something. Rose is left struggling for her life.

Most importantly, Ray Liotta died while filming this. It's nothing to write home about. He's a creepy captain for a few minutes. This movie would be a lot better as a two person film. Rose and Derek have a good creepy relationship. I'm with this movie up until she leaves the island. The boat is all too unreal. She turns into Rambo and I don't see it.

What can I say ? Sometimes I wonder how people find the resources to waste on an absolute moronic film. This has nothing to do with budget limitations. The story and the acting were horrendous and truly unbelievable. It already started on the wrong footing when the car's starter motor refused to engage and the mother was tapping the windscreen wiper motor to get it going which it miraculously did so. It's not really an issue, but it wouldn't cost a lot of effort to at least get some of the details right. But that episode is representative for the whole film. Absolutely unbelievable. Even the 1 rating is too much.
