Premise

Cast

In a negative review, Monica Sullivan wrote: "The presence of Amanda Donohoe in any picture, however tiny the budget, immediately makes the movie seem several times more expensive than it actually is." Regarding the presence of the actress in the film, "Mr Skin" wrote: " By the dawning of the new millennium, the thirty-eight-year-old sizzler was letting those scalding cupfuls overflow in The Atlantis Conspiracy . No covert operation with Amanda, what you see is what you get—and you get a lot!" Filmdienst, however, described the film as follows: "A gripping eco-drama about the struggle for ideals and power, showing how visionary goals fall victim to unscrupulous profiteering. A committed independent production with convincing actors."
