Poseidon is one of the few tentpole films this year that we fear won't make back its ginormous budget during its initial run in theatres. Not that we have anything specific against the film, it is more of a gut feeling. However, we have so far dug the look of the remake and this latest movie poster is no exception.

When a rogue wave capsizes a luxury cruise ship in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean, a small group of survivors find themselves unlikely allies in a battle for their lives. Preferring to test the odds alone, career gambler John Dylan (Josh Lucas) ignores captain’s orders (Andre Braugher) to wait below for possible rescue and sets out to find his own way to safety. What begins as a solo mission soon draws others as Dylan is followed by a desperate father (Kurt Russell) searching for his daughter (Emmy Rossum) and her fiancé (Mike Vogel), a young couple who hours before couldn’t summon the courage to tell him they were engaged and now face much graver challenges. Along the way they are joined by a single mother (Jacinda Barrett) and her wise-beyond-his-years son (Jimmy Bennett), an anxious stowaway (Mia Maestro) and a despondent fellow passenger (Richard Dreyfuss) who boarded the ship not sure he wanted to live but now knows he doesn’t want to die.
Warner Bros has recently released the domestic poster for Poseidon and it looks pretty solid. The simple image of showing a ship rolled over under the ocean surface is enough to convey where this story is heading.
