USS Poseidon - Phantom Below Reviews
28 of 28 people found the following review helpful THIS IS AN EDITED VERSION OF THE ORIGINAL, By Chicago Rick "Rick" (Chicago) - See all my reviews This review is from: USS Poseidon - Phantom Below (DVD) Be warned ! This is the edited version of the movie that originally appeared on "here-tv"(the gay television station). This version does not contain at least two scenes where Adrian Paul and Mike Doyle are kissing (they are lovers). The movie was originally titled, "Tides of War." Another scene edited out is when Catherine Dent's character tells Adrian Paul's character that she has found the letters that he sent to Mike Doyle's character.I rate this version of the movie 1 star for editing those scenes. The original version shown on here tv was a 5 star. 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful Needed a little tweaking, By This review is from: USS Poseidon - Phantom Below (DVD) In all fairness, I watched the movie twice and realized it was the stiff, flat dialogue that drug the movie down. There were some good action scenes, and I liked the basic plot, so it's a shame there weren't a few more revisions to the script dealing with the characters. I think this could've been a fantastic action movie with just a little tweaking. The conversations made the actors sound 'stock'. This is a good example of why fantastic editors are worth their weight in gold.Chrissy K.

One touching scene between the Commander and XO/lover. Adrian Paul does a good job as usual. Realistic setting. Gay was not an issue is this, don't ask/don't tell didn't come up. |
