It is New Year's Eve, and over 2,000 passengers & crew are ringing in the New Year aboard the huge cruise ship 'Poseidon' when it capsizes on the open sea in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean! A small group of survivors find themselves unlikely allies in a battle for their lives. Preferring to test the odds alone, career gambler Dylan Johns ignores captain's orders to wait below for possible rescue and sets out to find his own way to safety. What begins as a solo mission soon draws others, as Dylan is followed by a desperate father searching for his daughter and her fiancée--a young couple who hours before couldn't summon the courage to tell him they were engaged and now face much graver challenges. Along the way they are joined by a single mother and her wise-beyond-his-years son, an anxious stowaway and a despondent fellow passenger who boarded the ship not sure he wanted to live but now knows he doesn't want to die. Determined to fight their way to the surface, the group sets off through the disorienting maze of twisted steel in the upside-down wreckage. As the unstable vessel rapidly fills with water each must draw on skills and strengths they didn't even know they possessed, fighting against time for their own survival and for each other.

Movie Reviews

Sacramento News & Review - 10/10 by Jim LaneAs movies like this go, this one is simply as good as they get, making the original look like merely a half-decent first cut.
FromTheBalcony - 9/10 by Bill ClarkWhile the film is successful in building tension and dread in several scenes, this is a largely predictable and unintentionally hilarious affair.
One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekThe effects are okay, if that's all that matters to you; but everything else is just melodramatic flotsam and jetsam more likely to generate laughs than excitement.
FilmJerk.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfThe director knows how to hammer tension out of the moment, and when Poseidon concentrates on being a tight-lipped, full throttle disaster film, it's persuasive and exquisite snuff entertainment.
Detroit Free Press - 9/10 by Terry LawsonYou can turn off your mind in Poseidon, just don't expect to relax and float downstream; you'll more likely be holding on to your seat like a flotation cushion.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 9/10 by Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)The overturned-ocean-liner remake, Poseidon, is long on 'wows' but short on 'aws.'
Sean the Movie Guy - 9/10 by Sean McBrideIt's generally exciting stuff, but there's nothing truly satisfying about the film.
EricDSnider.com - 9/10 by Eric D. SniderPoseidon does for disaster movies what Airplane! did for disaster movies.
Bangor Daily News (Maine) - 9/10 by Christopher SmithHow do you replace the heroic sight of Shelley Winters--breath held longer than David Blaine could fathom--skimming through a watery deep in an effort to save the remaining passengers of 1972's "The Poseidon Adventure"? You don't even try.
Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema - 9/10 by Mark PfeifferPoseidon, [Petersen's] remake of the 1972 disaster flick The Poseidon Adventure, is lean and mean yet waterlogged by the bland characters scurrying for their lives.
