The other actors didn't do anything really extraordinary but serve as solid supporting characters.

The acting was good too, most notably by Ed Harris and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio. As I said, the story took a little while to gain steam, but it was pretty interesting from then on. It's also neat to see that effect inspire a similar one used in Terminator 2. The special effects for representing these characters were quite good, and I especially liked the water creature that toured around the rescue vessel. It wasn't for a while till we really got to meet the 'extraterrestrial' creatures. It seemed pretty normal with the sinking of a nuclear sub and the hiring of an oil crew to save it. At first, I wasn't quite sure why this was considered sci-fi. However, now I decided to check it out and was quite pleased with this solid sci-fi movie.

When it came out, I was only 8 and not into sci-fi movies that weren't titled Star Wars.

I've never really heard of The Abyss except in Fox DVD commercials.
