Billy Zane starred in two other films also involving a sinking ship and some kind of love triangle: Titanic (1997) and Survival Island (2005). In all three films, he plays the more menacing of the two men and the woman chooses "the other guy" over him. See more »

Very unbelievable plot, with a female lead role who can do nothing right and who has no mind of her own to make just one correct and logic decision.
Add to it's incredibility a husband who would leave his wife alone on a boat with a strange man with horse lame story in the middle of the ocean while rowing off a mile in a dingy.
The couple would surely have called around on the radio to report the alleged accidents on the deserted schooner, and surely the wife would sooner have recalled the man's advice of grabbing the gun early on.
In all it's just another of the stories where no one is doing the right and logic thing, every thing that possibly can go wrong goes wrong etc.
Predictable, boring, stupid and very ordinary.
