There's a line in this seminal and smart little teen movie from the 1980s where a very young Tom Cruise asks co-star Rebecca de Mornay at the end of the film where they will be in ten years time. For Tom it would be number one in the billboard chart with 'The Firm', for Rebecca it was a small credit on the TV show The Outer Limits. Cruise had that effect on his co-stars and so charismatic was that dazzling smile that he pretty much stole every movie he was in back then, regardless of where he was on the pay roll, memorably blowing then golden boy Timothy Hutton (who was actually first choice for Cruises role in Risky Business) off the screen ...

You will come away having been well informed, well looked after and well fed, and on that rather unexciting basis I would recommend it.
My main reservation would be that it is all rather impersonal, even bland. For much of the time you might as well be on any medium-sized modern cruise-ship anywhere, which, unless you're a devotee of cruises for their own sake, is hardly the point. Everything on the GE2 is kept under control; this insulates you from discomfort but may also subtly insulate you against what is most valuable in visiting the Galápagos, absorbing the atmosphere of a unique natural habitat in the raw. Being on a smaller vessel would, I think ...
Advantages: some okay action sequences Disadvantages: everything else
The original Speed, released in 1994, was a rock solid adrenaline pumping film, which, apart from the last 10 minutes, left you wanting more. It's sequel, Speed 2 CruiseControl, is terrible. The action sequences are limp, the adrenaline pumping moments of tension non-existent and the script appalling. Replacing Keanu Reeves from the first film is action man Jason Patric, who looks good on screen but is merely a cardboard cut out action man, in the vein of Jean Claude Van Damme, but much much worse. Reeves obviously had the sense to jump ship (excuse the pun!), but Sandra Bullock is still there, playing the cutesy yet clumsy female lead who's now changed boyfriends. Throughout the film there is absolutely no chemistry between her and Patric.
So, the plot goes like this: Sandra and her wanna-be fiancé go on a Caribbean cruise which is ...
