Review – Sea of Fear

The only thing that saved this from the abandoned movie list was that I was soldering a complicated bit of wiring at the time and thus was too preoccupied to take the time to get rid of it. And thank goodness I didn't, because wow, were all those fake endings ever worth it. "Didn't see that one coming, did you? Oh you did? Well how about this twist, then? That was predictable, too? Then here's another. And another. And another." The problem with this approach is that if you don't spend the first 80 minutes of the movie coming up with characters the audience cares about and a plot that keeps us interested, your stupid rug-yanking exercises in the last ten minutes don't make any difference one way or another. Wish I'd skipped it
