The Muddy Reality of Offshore Oil Drilling Brought to Horrific Life

Rating: 9/10 (29 September 2016)

9.1 of 10. Makes a documentary-style, based-on-true events film into a stunning special FX action-thriller with the sort of technical detail that you'd expect Star Trek nerds to demand and enjoy.
2 people really impress here: Peter Berg for putting this film together and John Malkovich for his acting. Berg clearly expresses a passion for this that brings to life a film based on an investigative news article. As for Malkovich, pretty much everyone but him could have been replaced with another actor.
They definitely released this at the correct time. There's a not so obvious Halloween element in this film. Those looking for horror and gore without being stuck with slightly different versions of the same old horror clichÃ©s will prefer this over any made-for-Halloween film. You will feel truly scared and surprised watching this film without a single gimmick.
