There it is – Pacifica – a gleaming metropolis on the ocean floor. But the fabulous, futuristic city is seven hours away from doom as a giant asteroid hurtles toward a direct hit. Good thing an all-star cast of steel-nerved stalwarts – including Stuart Whitman, Robert Wagner, Richard Basehart, Joseph Cotton and boxing legend Sugar Ray Robinson – is on hand. From Irwin Allen, the beloved disaster movie impresario behind The Poseidon Adventure, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea and The Towering Inferno, comes the over-the-top underwater adventure City Beneath the Sea. Submerge yourself in waves upon waves of screen excitement.

Comments about City Beneath the Sea (DVD):

This film revived memories past. For its time, it was one of the better SciFi's around. Although the special effects don't come close to today's versions, nonetheless, it has withstood the sands of time. Many of the actors and actresses went on to better and brighter futures. It is a movie that falls within the "Classic" category! By today's standards, the story line was a little rough; however, it was still an entertaining film to watch. It will definitely remain a part of my movie library.

Irwin Allen Movie/Pilot !!!

Comments about City Beneath the Sea (DVD):

This is one of the best projects from Irwin Allen. It was better and more realistic than "voyage to the bottom of the sea." It had a strong cast. I just wish it was set on a submarine instead of an underwater city. If it went to series it would have been confining.

Typical Irwin Allen sci-fi sillyness
By ChickenLipsVerified Reviewer from Great Lakes, USA on 11/15/2010
Describe Yourself:
Movie Buff
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about City Beneath the Sea (DVD):

Lots of 70's character actors on display here in hammy TV heroics. Some neat ideas slightly hampered by a TV film budget. Still fun and a good family film that offers clean, Saturday afternoon escapism. One big drawback is the lame cover art. Who designs this junk? Fire them! The cover artwork makes the film look like a cheesy daytime soap opera. How about a shot of Pacifica... or the mini subs... something... ANYthing that at least indicates it's an underwater sci-fi film!?
