Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/4 --
Tries so hard not to be a conventional science-fiction thriller that it fails, alas, to be anything.

Chicago Sun-Times
Some of the cloak-and-dagger stuff that follows is so awkwardly staged that it's difficult to know whether the simplicity was designed for youngsters or as parody.
New York Times
What is left, besides a lot of pretty dolphin footage, is some bad intercollegiate-revue satire, a shadow of Sea Hunt, and a calculated sentimentality that evokes memories of Lassie Come Home.

Rating: C+ --
A disappointing adaptation of the best-selling novel, neither satisfying as thriller or as adventure.

Rating: 2/4 --
The screenplay chooses some poor times to relieve tension, and the jokes fall flat.

A bizarre and often ridiculous attempt to merge documentary, suspense and comedy.
