i did enjoy this film but yes it was a bit corny; i watched with my teenage daughter who loved the special effects but laughed at the supposed dramatic moments . We weren't told anything about the characters which meant that, as a result, we didn't seem to care that much about them. Maybe another 15 minutes giving us some background on them would help set the scene for the story. The special effects were great, the bit where they were stuck in the vent was truly horrific - well i thought so anyway!! Watched this on DVD, probably the effects would have come across better at the cinema. expected a bit more of this film i think, the special effects were great but not much characterisation so a bit short on empathy. the ending was definitely corny too - an empty available lifeboat just waiting for them???
