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

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

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