In the right hands, this could've been a quality film, but unfortunately the casting director cared more about prettiness than acting ability. Zane acts like an actor acting and Kidman doesn't act at all. Because she can't.

It turns out space isn't the only place they'll never hear you scream. A dead calm ocean is pretty lonely too - but somehow a psycho turns up anyway. Good performances and an intense story. A worthy thriller - even Nicole Kidman was good.
