Trainwreck: Poop Cruise (2025), now streaming on Netflix, is a documentary chronicling the notorious 2013 Carnival Triumph cruise ship fiasco. This covered the incident where an engine room fire left the triumph cruise stranded for a couple of days without power, air conditioning and sewage facilities. The passengers dealt with intolerable conditions including extreme heat, flooding from sewage, alongside dwindling supplies of food while the crew worked to manage the situation.
Review Summary
In the eyes of its viewers, it seems to be receiving mixed reviews, being classed as “hideous” yet “appropriately disturbing”. While those who find it receive a more positive ear are labeling it well done when it comes to editing, along with finding joy in its haphazard humour. The docuseries seems rather casual when it comes to presenting Amazon’s side of things, which makes The Brilliance easily part of one’s binge collection.
With all these different perspectives we can also get onboard some very unique conversations whereby one can listen through to a chef talking about these teenagers on board for their bachelorette party or telling family members on vacation where they should lift their legs just so potential faeces does not soil anywhere near them as sanitary bags would fill up quite quickly. It describes sanest yet insane actions that make no real sense during unimaginable infections.
While critics have seemed to point out its weakness
By saying that there are portions which seem unimaginably shallow, such as completely ignoring anywhere past base surface exploration, like even exploring what was going through crew members’ heads while trying but failing to shoulder company policy.
Some viewers highlighted that the film could have explored other elements, such as interviewing more crew members and analyzing the psychological impact on staff who labored long hours in extreme conditions.
Also, it offers insight into modern daftness, where neglected passengers lose their fundamental instincts like air conditioning and functioning toilets. Some reviewers seemed to find this human inadequacy more troubling than a breakdown of technology.

The absurdity of some of the events that unfold
Allows for people to chuckle at how absurd the situation was despite all the genuine suffering those onboard were going through.

The reviews have been largely positive both for its narrative and entertainment value, while some see it lacking depth regarding broader perspectives from crew members.
