A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

In a floating research facility, scientists are exploring a possible cure for Alzheimer's Disease. This involves genetically modifying the brains of Mako sharks, making them super-intelligent, and much larger than normal. There are three of these sharks at the facility. Then, after a freak accident, the sharks escape. Worse still, the facility is sinking...Mostly your average creature-horror movie, which is not a good thing. Plot is pretty basic: pretty standard setup for disaster, one-dimensional, cartoonish characters and some incredibly cheesy dialogue (LL Cool J gets the worst of it, with some ridiculous lines).So, on the surface, nothing going for it. Yet, the story is strangely compelling. The reason for this the unpredictability of it. You can usually judge who the heroes are going to be by who among the actors has a bigger name. This movie breaks that formula, killing off people you thought would last to the final scene. Some great red herrings. Makes for some wonderfully unexpected moments.Also means that it is not a given that there is going to be a happy ending, making it more interesting.So, better than your average creature-horror, though not that this says much.

Great movie of sharks. U don't see many shark movies that are good. This one is. It's an 6 out of 10, but 1 star taken away cause of some terrible graphics.

I have to say, that was horrible. The CGI was poor. How the shark attacked the doctor, you can tell straight away it was not made well. It was fine in the beginning and the shark look fine until they start attacking. I'd say Jaw was much better than this movie, Deep Blue Sea. I gave it a shot and it didn't turn out well. Overall I'd say, "Meh." Meaning okay and not okay at the same time. I don't recommend this movie to anyone. Don't watch it. But If you do, then go ahead
