Four specialists are brought together to investigate something on the ocean bottom. Dr. Norman Goodman (Dustin Hoffman) is the psychotherapist. Dr. Beth Halperin (Sharone Stone) is the marine biologist. Dr. Harry Adams (Samuel L. Jackson) is the mathematician. Dr. Ted Fielding (Liev Schreiber) is the astrophysicist. Captain Harold C. Barnes (Peter Coyote) tells the team of a possible spacecraft that crash landed 300 years ago. They discover a perfect liquid sphere in a ship possibly build by humans in the future. Along with sailor Fletcher (Queen Latifah) among others, the group is stranded on the bottom of the ocean.
It's too slow and too long. The action has no thrills. The horror elements are lackluster. The cast may be superior but their work here is mediocre. The only good scene is Jackson fake out the Alien chocking scene. The rest is a long meandering sci-fi adventure without much adventure. A tighter story could elevate the tension and make this exciting.
