1/10
Two hours of water hitting a window.

Warning: Spoilers
I know the majority of the reviews here have said it already, but personally I think it bears repeating: The movie is inexcusably poor. The only way I could have enjoyed this movie less would have been if the characters had lived. It's a terrific concept: take a bunch of jerks, throw them on a boat, and watch them act dumb and die. Sorry, spoiler. Too late. You'll thank me later for saving you the trouble of sitting through it. Annoying acting, the worst script ever, the worst child actor ever, stupid-looking fish being mutilated, and the excitement of water. You could go on a log flume ride at Six Flags and have 79238749238472389 times as much fun.

The inadequacies of my native tongue prevent me from truly expressing the extent of my hatred for this thing that sucks too much to deserve a noun that describes it and it only. I would not deign to call it "crap", because I don't want to hurt the feelings of the makers of other films (such as "Mannequin 2") that are clearly crap but in no way as bad as this. Not even John C. Reilly and William Fichtner can save it. In fact, they do their best to ensure that it sucks worse than almost anything ever has, right along with everyone else involved.

Without question it's extremely unfortunate that people actually died in this horrible storm, but at least now they don't have to sit through this. What a miserable, insulting epitaph.
