I actually enjoyed this movie much more than I thought I would. Action. Adventure. Romance. It's all there.The two males leads are, indeed, handsome and have an interesting back story but it was Australian Rachel Blakely, playing the ship's British head of security, who really shined. She's not only a talented actress but she really lightens up the screen when she walks or rides into a scene. We really do need to see more of her in American television.There are many familiar faces in this movie and it's fun to point them out to friends and loved ones.Once again, I liked it.

High production values and a decent soundtrack doesn't redeem the hammy overacting and cheesy plot. Chinese nuclear threat meets Steven Seagal's aromatherapist/dietitian/cameraman. The QE2 is a marvelous ship, was a totally enjoyable record (Mike Oldfield), and shall ever be embarrassed to be featured in this film. And, for a Taiwanese national raised in Hong Kong, the vixen speaks remarkably good English - no accent at all.Worst line: (during dinner, before the sh*t hits the fan) "...then I said, 'After you, Miss Streep.'"I'm supposed to write ten lines, but I'm afraid this film doesn't merit that much attention (contradicted by the fact that I bothered to comment on it at all.) But, then again, I liked 'Xanadu'. Go figure. At least this one had commercials.

This is without doubt one of the best films of its type. The actors are not all household names, by any means, but this is no disadvantage at all. The characters are all charismatic and well-acted. You get a real sense of adventure and, especially importantly, of participation whilst watching this movie and the time passes all-too-quickly. There are a number of actors here who deserve much more high profile airings and I look forward to following their careers with interest.

This movie is an excellent vehicle for Joe Lando, who does action like no other . If he only had some romance to go along with the thrills and spills, I would rate it a 10.
