Diaulas F @RT13630323 Mar 15 Um suspense de tirar o fôlego! E Michelle Pfeiffer que atuação brilhante! É um ótimo filme. See more Lily K @Beautylover Feb 23 An absolutely beautiful, gripping, and genuinely terrifying film that will keep you glued to your seat, making you forget about everything else. It moves at a deliberate pace, building a dark and mysterious atmosphere that sends chills down your spine more than once. Michelle Pfeiffer delivers a haunting and deeply convincing performance. She brings such emotional weight to her role, creating a constant sense that something terrible is about to happen — and when it finally does, it hits hard. Harrison Ford, along with Amber Valletta and the rest of the cast, are equally impressive. This is a beautifully crafted, dark, dramatic suspense film with outstanding performances all around. Rotten Tomatoes, what is it with the low ratings? They are absolutely not deserved. You have made a mistake. See more David H @DavidQHarris Jan 31 Not a bad film. It entertained me and kept my interest for a couple of hours, but there are definitely better thrillers out there. See more TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Jan 30 What Lies Beneath is a suspenseful psychological thriller that proves how powerful atmosphere and strong performances can be. Michelle Pfeiffer delivers a standout turn, carrying the film with vulnerability, fear, and emotional depth, while Harrison Ford adds quiet tension and complexity to their relationship. Their chemistry makes the mystery more believable and gives weight to every twist. Director Robert Zemeckis carefully builds suspense through lighting, sound, and pacing, choosing slow-burn tension over cheap jump scares. The film keeps viewers engaged by focusing on character first, letting the mystery unfold naturally. While the screenplay has a few predictable moments and minor flaws, it remains gripping and well-structured. Overall, What Lies Beneath is an entertaining and underrated thriller that balances romance, mystery, and psychological horror. It may not be perfect, but its performances, atmosphere, and emotional storytelling make it worth revisiting See more Ryan W @CataloniusDyphon Jan 17 I feel like this movie is underrated. The star power, glossiness and a few clunkier moments/elements may make it seem like a sort of run-of-the-mill cheap thrill-fest, but it gets under the skin for me. The pacing and direction are excellent, delivering genuinely chilling moments, a thick atmosphere and a few satisfying surprises. There are some great shots as well. I saw it in theaters when it first came out and just rewatched it 25 (!) years later, and both times I felt immersed in its world. It's got some weight, thanks partly to the way it touches on the dark edges of relationships, gender dynamics, social status, aloneness and fear, but not in a heavy-handed way. It manages to be scary, unsettling and fun, and it lingers in the mind after the credits roll. See more Mark B @Mbindon Jan 6 It really loses steam throughout the movie. Premise was pretty good but the last 35 minutes go on and on and is very unsatisfying. See more Read all reviews
