Entertainment Reviews:
Diaz is largely performing in a vacuum: Keitel, unbelievable for starters as a middle-aged judge, seems unsure at which pitch to play the largely physical comedy, and Sheffer, as the best friend, is fairly vanilla.

Interesting thriller with good twists.

If you have to spend time with a corpse at the beach, this is better than "Weekend at Bernie's." But it's a near thing.

Los Angeles Times
After flailing around a lot, Head Above Water just about manages the title feat, though first-time director Jim Wilson is clearly out of his depth.

Boston Phoenix
One moment, ''Head Above Water'' plays like a clanking melodrama, the next like a gallows comedy of corrupt yuppie manners.
New York Times
Rating: 0/5 --
Debts must have been called in on this one.
FilmsInReview.com
Diaz, clad mostly in a one-piece yellow swimsuit, is left floundering in the shallows of a script which relies on ludicrous human behaviour and mechanical plot twists, the latter signposted by an over-emphatic score.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Cameron Diaz is Nathalie, a ravishing-but-ditzy young wife planning an idyllic vacation off the coast of Maine with her new husband, George (Harvey Keitel). Unfortunately, Nathalie is also the object of desire for the only other people on the island: childhood pal Lance (Craig Sheffer) and ex-flame Kent (Billy Zane). That night, with George and Lance away, Nathalie does her best to remain faithful, and Kent does his best to change her mind.
