Regarding The Abyss...I enjoyed the movie until the resuscitation (sp?) scene. CPR didn't work, the defibrillator didn't work, but slapping and yelling 'Live damn you, live!' brings the person back? Please! It was downhill after that. I thought the end was pretty weak. After they resurface from 1000's of feet down and don't die a horrible decompression death: "It must have been something they did!"

I'd heard they ran wildly over budget and the director (James Cameron) was put under heavy cost pressures part way through filming, hence the sharp right turn in film quality, although I don't know for sure.

That said, I think my opinion is in the minority on this one.
