Oceans Rising (2017) Reviews

• Horrible

  Words cannot express how horrible this movie is. There is nothing else to say besides save the 1.5 hours of your life and read a book. The reviewers are now telling me I must write at least five lines for a submission. Seriously, I am 50 years old and this was by FAR the worst movie I have ever seen....and I have suffered through Will Farrell movies. Enough lines yet?

• Everything is sooo bad

  I saw the IMDb points (6.9) and rented the movie. That cant be bad I thought. After seeing few minutes from beginning I realized that this was just waste of my time and money. I checked the IMDb rating again and noticed that only 30 people had given the rating by that time and half of them gave 10! Those were obviously the whole cast and the other members of staff. I cant call them as directors or film makers when the more correct term should be "con artists". The movie poster shows the statue of liberty mostly under water but of course we won't see anything like that in the movie. The synopsis (made by film makers) tells about the "arch" that is built by a scientist whose warnings are not taken seriously. The "arch" is a MOTOR BOAT! The whole plot and the acting is so unbelievable that one can't even start to criticize it. You can maybe have some kind of an idea of what I am talking about from one scene: There is a kid playing on the floor, a woman comes and tells that his mama has just died. The kid is very sad and cries. Another scene happens on the same site after about 10 minutes. The kid is still playing the same way and looking sad. The same woman enters and asks "What is the matter with you?". The kid answers, that he is sad because "nobody wants him"!! They both just forgot that his mother has just died. That fact did not play any role anymore in their life. This movie is so bad it is not even a good bad movie. It is just a "wanna be" big catastrophic movie with a budget of a small home movie and it really looks like one.

• Oceans Rising: I was rooting for the ocean

  In this brand new shiny Asylum mockbuster we see the earth flooded with no ark in sight! Just two scientists, their small craft and a few people who somehow someway survived the torrents of water. Being an Asylum movie as you can imagine it's awful! From the sfx, to the cast, to the script, to the entire movies creation. Ridiculous concept, countless flaws, plot holes and just little to no redeeming features. I've always said that The Asylum should stick to slapstick comedy as the few bearable movies they've done have come under that category. When a story about a flood is less realistic than the biblical one, you know you have a problem! The Good: Nothing The Bad: Usual Scyfy pseudo science That bloody kid

• This is what happens when U.S. citizens blindly pay cable and streaming services.

  Can I give this a NEGATIVE 10? The concept of this movie is in 2017, a rather old concept in terms of real science and an even older in sci-fi. The synopsis for this movie is a complete lie. There is no ark built. It's a charter fishing boat that the main character has bought. The budget of this movie must have been only for the camera and effects computer rentals. That this movie is owned by Broken Films LLC is ironically truthful. In almost half a century, I have never seen such horrible acting, script writing, effects, editing, total disrespect to physical time lines and even the very basics of physics that even sci-fi can't explain, and exasperatingly unbelievable character interaction. That SciFi allowed this to make it to viewers makes me wonder the sanity of its top brass. That it wasn't scrapped after reading the initial script is even more disturbing. I would have believed a script that gave the main characters the power of thought to change the earth's polarity a more plausible concept over their mangling of real particle physics. The product of worm riddled brains. Not even good for white noise while you sleep at night.

  I wish IMDb made a special 0 rating for such a movie. Never in my life have I been this disappointed. I swear I could have made better scenes with a 4K camera with a drone and a small boat. The acting I mean what the f looks like they took a high school drama team and paid them in Doritos. They should all the prosecuted for wasting my time.
