This was the year of the underwater adventure/horror movie. I think both "The Abyss" and "Leviathan" came out this year. This is the one I liked the least of the three. Not that I was all that crazy about the other two. This one had the underwater research facility like the other two, but this one had some strange monster unleashed, unlike them. Leviathan had a sort of mutating beast that came from a sub and "The Abyss" did not have any sort of monster at all. The problem with this one is that it is a very slow mover and the monster which the previews made it seem like it was the main attraction (as does the tagline) at times just does not factor into the equation. Of course this movie has its highlights, like when the dude goes up in the escape pod without being decompressed, but all in all this just was not too good of a movie. The problem with all three of the underwater movies is that they all seemed to be missing something. They should have pulled their talents and made one movie.
