I have always like Kurt Russell. During the filming of this movie, he actually drowned and almost died. He plays a fireman from NYC in this movie. Kevin Dillon is mr. lucky, who happens on bad luck in the film. Richard Dreyfuss is an old archetect, but meets and shares love in the adventure. Jacinda Barrett and Stacy Ferguson and Mia Maestro all are great actresses.

This is just as good as the previous film, done in the 70s, with all the top named stars then, follows the same story line.
Now with this film, the special effects are better. A few things grab you and hold your attention. The scenery and believability of the film is great.
I gave this 5 stars, for believability, because of rogue waves? or tsunami's as scientists call them.
Fantastic cast, you can see and agree with both sides when a ships steward says stay here...and another man says, I am going for help to the outside and wants to get out as fast as possible. The dangers of going through an upside down ship, and trying to reach safety, because you know a ship that is overturned in the water is taking on water, because glass windows do not hold up very long against the water pressure. And then there is the leading man and the leader and the sidekick. The sidekick gets it the leading man leaves alive, and there is a happy ending, for some while for others its not so happy.
A great film to add to the library!!!
