Interesting and intense, but basically the exact same movie as the original with worse acting. Good for kids 12+

Suggested MPAA Rating: R for intense sequences of disaster and peril throughout, graphic disturbing images, some language and sensuality.

Poseidon takes a plunge deeper than original
This movie was okay. The interpretation of the original was not very good. It isn't great for younger kids because of some of the peril and bloodier gruesome scenes. Think twice before letting a small child see this movie. I personally (being 14) thought it was pretty good.

 
Horrific and Stale
I was shocked at how horrific this movie was. Dead bodies left and right. We watch a kind father and a sweet young woman drown, a little kid almost drown,and a man falling down several stories into a firey hell. Combine that with waaay fake explosions and an unimpressive ending. Why wasdte the time ot money.

 
One of the best movies I saw this year!
I absolutely loved this movie, and I think it is a must-see for everyone ages 12 and up. I liked it because it had an amazing display of courageous characters and The sequence of events just kept me in suspense! I even had my eyes covered for a little!

Great disaster flick
Intense prolonged sequences of disaster and peril. Dead bodies, bloody. Two disturbing scenes: a man falling down a shaft, getting pierced by spikes. A woman hits her head underwater, drawing blood. For more information, contact me on YouTube - davstern1500

Bad remake of classic disaster film. The moral: do not remake disaster movies.
My rating: PG-13 for intense disaster sequences throughout, alcohol use and some language.

An okay movie might appeal to older teens and adults.
This is not one of my favorite movies, but it's okay, I guess. There are some things you should watch out for. There is a lot of violence in this movie. You see the ship getting hit by a rouge wave causing passengers to get hurt or even die. In some scenes you see dead people on the floor. There are also brief sequences where the crew is floating underwater...DEAD! There is also some very iffy language. There is some drinking and smoking too. There is a gay character and some talk about sex and sleeping with someone. This movie would appeal more to older teens and adults.

I like it because some kids likestuff that are impacts but only 10+ should watch it because there is some bad language and if younger kids see it they might say it and not know better and might say it fir the rest if their lives so they might get a bad education

This one was pretty good; I'd watch it again. There's quite a lot of carnage and some swearing. At a dance, a few characters are grinding. Amid all this, there are some good, unselfish role models. Positive family relationships are touched on, and (spoiler alert) a man dies to save his daughter's boyfriend, who is soon to marry her. Overall, I liked Poseidon, but I'm a little biased because my favourite celebrity was part of the cast.

good
I thought this movie was good, I'd see it again. I'd say that you should know your kid before letting them see this. It's got a lot of dead bodies, explosions, and other images that might be frightening. The people who are main characters who die are sweet innocent people who don't deserve to die but one dies to save others, one dies because if he didn't two people (including himself) would've died. (that death was not voluntary). One death I don't totally understand why they had to die but I might be missing something. Another death of a very minor (and drunk) character is being very obnoxious and makes a choice that especially in his drunken state is very stupid. I'd say the end is happy (relatively) but the overall movie is sad and often visually disturbing. (bodies are burnt, bloody, jammed under things) KNOW YOUR KID
