> An awful lot of disaster movies since 1972 have been unofficial remakes of The Poseidon Adventure. At least this one is honest about it. I can't think of any reason to think this will be anything more than a forgettable popcorn flick, but I have to admit, the effects look slick.

I saw the original when it was new. I came out thinking "complete bomb." Without Shelly Winters, it would have been a "complete dud," which as we all know is a bomb that does nothing. I can't believe that there are still people who remember the title, much less people who want to remake it.
