Terrorisme en haute mer

I saw this film about 5 years ago and I have to say it is one of the most unintentionally funny films I have ever seen. Practically everything in the film leaves you slack jawed with incredulity, from the "crashed" plane at the beginning (the camera was put at an angle to achieve the effect), to the number of shots fired from each gun without reloading, to my personal favourite the ships engines.

Final Voyage is either the worst film ever made, or paradoxically the best example of a B movie stinker ever made which fully deserves a 5 star review.

Enjoy!

Firstly the fact they had to steal scenes from another film to make it look good speaks a lot. I found the acting to be terrible and not up to much. It was cheesy and the script was not good either and didn't mix with the Action. It's a shame because I think Dylan Walsh is a pretty good actor but just not her he was flat and that same thing goes for ice t who is also not bad but seeing him as a villian seemed off and not really in his nature. Walsh is demoted to a cruise ship looking after a young woman after endangering people on a plane, but supposed modern day pirates want what's in the vault. It's just lacklustre this film and I feel it could've been likable but sadly it didn't come to anything.

This movie made little sense. The acting sucked and the story needed a overhaul. The few things I did like about this film where wasted. First the cast. Claudia Christian's a babe and her character was pretty good as kick ass hitwoman. Erika Eleniak also a babe but she's done this gig before(in "Under Siege" and is 1000 times better than this). Next the production. It pi**es me off to see dumb movies wasting good FX and vehicles. I don't know how but they had a C-130 cargo plane to parachute from, during the day(Gees sutle). A night drop would have been much more stealthy. Hey, if you watch closely during the drop, one of the parachutist looses his diving mask. I won't go into tactical FUBARs in the theives operation(which there are many). I never saw theives dress in matching uniform either. Damn that ship sure came apart after the first explosion. Too many explosion for no reason. And the ballroom explosion was footage from "Deep Rising". Bottomline: with some work this could have been a good movie instead of stinker.

How to make a bad action/adventure flick:

Step one:

Take out all of the ingredients that made Die Hard and Speed good movies (character development, plot twists, etc).

Step two:

Hire a list of completely untalented, unknown actors and then tell them to overact in typical Shatner conviction (only not as amusing and intelligible).

Step three:

Throw in typical terrorist plot (in this case, 12 terrorists take over a HUGE ocean liner (don't know how they could take over a place with around 250-1000 people) who want money in the vault when they could just rob a bank

Step four:

Throw in a couple annoyingly stupid characters

Step five:

Take out things like choreography, bullet dodging, or anything that would make someone watch an action movies

Step six:

Make sure to include totally one-dimensional characters

And the result in one hella bad, boring movie. It sure wouldn't be hard to make a good action movie, even include a little joke or something, but the filmmakers took all of the ways to make a good movie and did the opposite. There is absolutely no way I can recommend this mediocre piece of shazbot (sorry).

If you see it in a store, warn people of it's presence and tell them not to be fooled by Ice-T's presence in the flick (even Mean Guns is better than this tripe).

1 out of 10.

Don't waste your time. Amateurish at its worst.

Poor plot, pathetic script and even worse acting.

Nothing is realistic at all, who was in charge of continuity should never work again. Production was the cheapest they could could get on everything. CGI was very poor, but nothing was worse than Ice T's performance.

I'm very surprised that the actors got any work after this due to their inability to actually act.

Even the ending is flawed and makes you so happy that it has finally ended.

If you are considering watching this, please don't, go and watch Sesame Street, the acting is better and more believable and the stories are better than this garbage.
