Speed 2: Cruise Control

Rush hour hits the water.

Annie (Sandra Bullock) and her new boyfriend (Jason Patric) go on a Caribbean cruise with a luxury liner, but the ship is taken over by John Geiger (Willem Dafoe) who wants revenge on his former employers. The first movie did everything right, the sequel did everything wrong. It throws in bombs and chases just because action movies require them. The characters keep doing stupid things, there is no tension and Dafoe’s villain is just another boring madman.

1997-U.S. 120 min. Color. Widescreen. Directed by Jan De Bont. Cast: Sandra Bullock (Annie Porter), Jason Patric (Alex Shaw), Willem Dafoe (John Geiger), Temuera Morrison, Brian McCardie, Christine Firkins… Lois Chiles.

Trivia: Gary Oldman was allegedly considered for the part of Geiger.

Razzie: Worst Remake or Sequel.
