Summary: Boo.
Review: Booo, hisss, I feel cheated. I watched this film on the promise that LL Cool J would get eaten. The film then double crosses me and he survives.

Anyway, sharks with big brains....nuff said really

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Jump out of your seat and into your friends lap!
Review: I watched this movie reluctantly and with very low expectations (my friend got this for my birthday after I told her like 100 times that I wanted something else). The plot was great, and I thought it was very origional. And when I said jumpout of your seat into your friends lap, I meant it literally! This is definantly one of those movies where you better go to the bathroom before hand, cause youcan't miss a moment! I would definantly recommend this movie to anybody! So needless to say, my expectations were TOTALLY wrong, the movie was excellent, and watching it with the quality and clarity of DVD - a regular video cannot even try to compete!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: This movie is fun....
Review: and really really low on intelligence. Hey, what do you expect? How can you be critical of any movie like this? It really makes you see how good the original Jaws is though. Special effects are never a replacement for bad acting. I imagine Samuel L. Jackson had some kind of debt to pay when he signed up for this one.

LL Cool J = Box Office Poison.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Budget Wasted on Effects - That are not all that Special
Review: The acting so poor, to enjoy this piece of cheese one ought to be given a bottle of wine with it. The one-liners are not all that funny, and it appears as if the money was spent on some visual effects and a lead actor. Do yourself a favor and purchase Jaws instead. If one is prone to very simple things, like watching paint dry, or grass grow, this will be the perfect movie for them. If, on the other hand, you are interested in plot development, and seeing some actual effort put into the dialog and acting, then this movie is not for you.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A magnificent satire!
Review: What the detractors of this film don't realise is that the film is, essentially, a SPOOF of the "shark horror flick." The shark death sequence is the same as those in the "Jaws" films, and all the "survivor stereotypes" are killed off. Acts of sacrifice and altruism accomplish nothing, and only the PRAGMATIC characters survive, even though they are hardly darlings. An excellent film, filled with jump out of your seat, wet your knickers moments. Highly recommended!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Watch the preview first
Review: I was unsure about whether to get this movie after all the poor reviews I saw in the press and on the internet. Then I saw the making of program and it blew me away. It made me depserate to watch Deep Blue Sea and boy was I rewarded. Quite simply it is fantastic entertainment.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very Cool
Review: I had mixed feelings about watching this movie, but in the end I was truly rewarded with a totally cool flick. Not to mention the outstanding DVD picture and sound. Watching people get eaten by sharks has never been this much fun, or graphic. Kudos to the special effects team. Also give a hand to director Renny Harlin, who keeps the pace tight and fun. All in all an exciting, suspense filled ride with a lot of suprises.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Silly waste of an evening.
Review: This is a fun movie that keeps the action movie moving during the whole picture. But it is also pretty darn stupid so don't rope any intellectuals into watching it.

The most clever part of the movie is the way the screenwriter messes with your expectations for the plot. This leads to some very funny scenes that will have you reaching for the remote to rewind and watch again.

One of my favorite scenes is when two of the characters swim a long way under water to re-set some electrical breakers. This requires them to hold their breath for about 5 minutes and when they're finished one gestures to the other with a thumbs-up as if to say "What do you think? Want to get some air?"

"The special effects were awesome?" Are you kidding? "Awesome" if you mean that you are in awe a major studio would try to get away with it. If you watch the movie as if it were a cartoon you won't mind the effects but they are light-years behind Jaws which came out over 20 years ago.

But still, if you're just looking for something silly to kill a couple of hours - this might be the movie for you. And if you're a young actor trying to break in to the business you'll want to rent it as a boost to your ego. You're sure to sit there and say to yourself "I can do better than that!"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: deep blue sea
Review: This DVD was far better than I had hoped for. The special effects were awesome! After watching this DVD I'm not so sure I want to go in the ocean again.If what you like is to watch a shark tear a person apart, then this one is for you! This has become our all time favorite .The more you watch it the better it gets. This movie will NOT disapoint the the person that likes to sit on the edge of the seat. p.s keep your feet out of the water.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Move over Jaws,the big fish is in town
Review: A great thriller movie.Its full of surprises from the beginning. You find yourself watching going"OK he's going to live,she's going to...nope scratch that,OK shes gonna get...."You don't know whats around the next turn as sharks enter the sinking science lab,and it becomes a battle of wits when super smart sharks go up against there creators.
