While it looks like it's going to be a fun movie, it doesn't quite give me the feel I had when I read the bestseller of the same name by Clive Cussler.
For one thing Matthew McConaughey seems a bit young to be playing world adventurer Dirk Pitt. But if they're looking to build a tentpole out of this series, then younger is probably better.
The other thing that jumped out at me as a bit diferent than the book is how funny Steve Zahn is as Pitt's sidekick is. Don't get me wrong, there's a good mix of humor in the book, but the trailer really played it up... which again, may not be a bad thing.
And Penelope Cruz is always a plus!
