Movies What Lies Beneath is an underrated film.

[Takes Two To Tango]

Just watched this film. Haven't seen it in ages.

I think it's a very good movie. I give about an 8.

Michelle Pfeiffer has the face for horror films. She has very sharp facial features and with those piercing eyes.

Can't help but be drawn to her.

The plot is somewhat predictable, but it's highly suspenseful. You don't see much violence or gore, but the anticipation for it to happen is what gets you intrigued.

There is a lot of figuring what happen kind of thing and waiting see how it unfolds.

I recommend the movie if you haven't seen it.

It's underrated imo at IMDB with only a 6.6 rating.

I remember thinking it was pretty good at the time but i haven't seen it since. i need to rewatch it.

there were a few horror movies from that time frame that kind of disappeared. White noise, ghost ship, mothman prophecies, some movie where a ufo was sucking people way up in the air, hollow man (although this started getting talked about more when they redid that invisible man movie through blumhouse). but a lot of scary movies from that time were forgotten about.

That's true.

I watched it once years ago.

Well acted. Well directed. Good twist.

I don't recall it being anything exceptional. Good film.

I liked it. Solid movie. I give it a 7.

It's a good movie but I haven't seen it in probably 15 years. There just one thing I wish was different, that all these types of movies do.....

Spoiler

Harrison's character should have won in the end and lived. I freaking hate how the badguy always loses. Harrison's character should have killed Pfiffer's character, buttoned up all the loose ends, and the movie should have ended with him returning to life as normal, now a windower. Woulda been a great ending. Instead we get the disappointing cookie cutter ending of Pfiffer overcoming him and, I think, killing him.

I'd probably give it 6.5/10. Need to see it again though to be sure.

Yeah I rewatched it a couple of years ago, it is an above average film. She carried the film well.

Ironically, the only movie that you've forgotten about - the one with people getting sucked into the air - is IMO the best one of the bunch: The Forgotten with Julianne Moore and Dominic West. The Mothman Prophecies is also underrated. What Lies Beneath is IMO rated just right: Enjoyable enough but nothing particularly memorable. The Forgotten, on the other hand, is my fucking jam. Clever, suspenseful, and surprisingly moving.

You should rewatch it if you get a chance. It's a great film with a great cast. Julianne Moore, Dominic West, Gary Sinise, Linus Roache, Anthony Edwards, Lee Tergesen. It's like Christopher Nolan-lite: No epic set-pieces, no crazy intricate technology. Just a cool sci-fi story with a powerful emotional core.

A solid 7/10 for me. A good movie.

 

[Doomer]

Very entertaining movie, 8/10, very rewatchable.

5/10 since I'm not a Harrison Ford fan.
