A movie goes aground

Warning: Spoilers
For a movie with Charlton Heston, it is unusual bad. The camera work is an imposition. Many of the "underwater" scenes (like the falling rocks) are actually made ashore and you can see that way to obvious. Special effects are cheap. The plot is unreliable. Whenever the "DSRV" connected to the submarine and they opened the hatch, there wasn't even one drop of water coming down. The story is unnecessarily stretched to the point it hurts. At least in the last half hour it gets a bit better. The overall acting sways between weak and average. It's the first movie I had to give a bad rating and it was a disappointment.

I normally enjoy movies with Charlton Heston. In this one it was really hard to just sit about one and a half hours and watch it till the end. But you can't judge a movie when you haven't seen it all.

My suggestion is: skip this one.
