Continuity mistake: At the end when they "fly" out the ship you can see there are still high waves from the storm, but in the long shot of the ship exploding, the surrounding sea is a lot calmer.

Virus is a 1999 Science Fiction thriller starring Jaimie Lee Curtis as a female seaman aboard an American vessel Sea Star who locates a Russian vessel dead in the water days after an unusual and deadly space lightning attack. They soon discover grotesque human-machine hybrids that want to add the new crew to their list of dead sailors in this waterlogged clunker. Cheesy dialogue, poor SFX and a sinking tone that hits you between the eyes with a dud torpedo wear thin right away. Just don't see this film. One star.

Answer: She considered it to be a badly written and poorly made movie, stating that it was "dreadful." Critics panned the movie as being "predictable," though its special effects were praised. The movie received a 12% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and was a huge commercial flop that made about half of its production costs. Curtis said she tried to get director John Bruno fired during the filming because she thought the movie was so bad.
