Recipie for a blockbuster

Rating: Null/10 (1 June 2001)

Take 2 actors from Armageddon, 1 relatively unknown British actress female lead (just like Titanic) and lots of sinking boats. Add aeroplane fights (with the heroes nearly wiped out) from Independence Day. Mix in an utterly predictable love story and simmer for three hours. Tack on a story about a black hero as an afterthought.
On the other hand, the special effects and the performance of Jon Voight are great. For non-americans, probably the last hour is most interesting as I didn't know that bit of the story before.
