“Dangerous Waters” is a forgettable film, but it will be remembered as the feature actor Ray Liotta was working on when he passed away in 2022. He doesn’t have a major part in the picture, showing up in the movie for a single scene, and fans of the star should be aware of this situation, as Liotta is prominently billed in marketing materials, even appearing on the poster. “Dangerous Waters” isn’t exactly boosted by Liotta’s appearance, with the effort largely underwhelming, established as something of a crime thriller before it takes a lengthy detour into a survival story. Guns and bad guys are present in the tale of a young woman facing the fight of her life while stuck on the open water, but director John Barr (“Blood and Money”) can’t tap into a rich sense of suspense, with the endeavor too slack when it comes to pressurized moments of conflict, and his casting isn’t strong enough deliver a more physical understanding of danger.
