Pros: LL COOL J
Cons: The effects were a bit cheesy
Summary: I have to say this movie was better than I expected. I didn't expect much. The effects were not the worst I have ever seen. The characters were well developed. What I really felt made this movie worth seeing was the action. It was non-stop and I jumped ... read more

Pros: some special effects, action sequences
Cons: plot (or lack of), acting, other special effects
Summary: I went to see this movie in the theater a while back with some friends, on a "just for the heck of it" whim. Just for the heck of it, we should have stayed at home, or at least just thrown away the money we spent on tickets, and at least ... read more

Pros: [quote, unquote] action packed
Cons: predictable & no plot
Summary: This movie has gotten fairly good reviews, and the reason why is beyond me. I've recently rented the movie 'Deep Blue Sea' but found myself extremely disappointed with it.
This movie was [quote, unquote] action packed, but none the less extremely ... read more

Pros: great movie with a lot of great surprises
Cons: none its all you could expect to get and a little more
Summary: This is the ultimate of what all the stupid jaws movies should have been like. This movie is about survival. Shark vs. man. Only now the sharks are five times smarter than they use to be. This movie has a lot of great sudden shocks that you would ... read more

Pros: Realistic Sharks, LL Cool J is good, scary, exciting, funny
Cons: not well acted, not ingeniously directed, not a great plot
Summary: Deep Blue Sea is not a great movie. It is not especially well acted, and it is not ingeniously directed. Deep Blue Sea is simply a fun and scary movie to watch. It is violent, funny at times, scary, and a little bit high tech. I understand any criticism ... read more

Pros: ACTION!, direction, f/x, death scenes,
Cons: comparisons to Jaws, the parrot dies
Summary: You can't read a review of Deep Blue Sea without the inevitable comparisons to Jaws, only because Jaws was the first to use sharks as the major catalyst in a major motion picture. I must admit though, Jaws is a classic in anyones book, but comparing it ... read more

Pros: Special effects excellent
Cons: Plot too trite
Summary: DEEP BLUE SEA left me feeling a little blue and non-fearful of the sea at all. The movie has marvelous special effects. Some moves by the shark almost appeared to jump out of the screen. However, DEEP BLUE SEA is no JAWS. There was no suspense or ... read more

Pros: a little better than jaws
Cons: to much like original jaws
Summary: At first I thought Deep Blue Sea was going to be another typical jaws movie. But after I watch it i think that it is a little better than Jaws. It still has the typical shark that seems to have revenge on everyone, but instead of an animal that was ... read more

Pros: No nude scenes
Cons: Very predictable. Lame looking Sharks
Summary: I wanted to see Deep Blue Sea just to see if the movie industry had finally come out with a film that could compare to "Jaws". When the movie critics ripped it to shredds in their reviews, I decided to wait for it to come out on video. Not a ... read more

Pros: Very Few
Cons: Weak plot. Weak Characters. Weak film all together.
Summary: Although the plot and special effects of this film seemed promising, they simply did not turn out to be what I expected. I had seen the trailer on television, and before viewing other films, and it seemed good enough. I didn't find the time to see it ... read more

Pros: Starring LL Cool J & Samuel L. Jackson with eye catching special effects & a great set design!
Cons: Plot leaves much to be desired, and the acting is quite predictable...This film was nothing more than a technological upgrade of Jaw I,II,III...you get the point!
Summary: It started out to be quite an exciting film. Some people are on a boat partying,(sounds familiar?) and all of a sudden there is a pounding on the bottom of the boat. Eventually the shark breaks through the hull of the ship trying to make a meal out of ... read more

Pros: Special Effects
Cons: Terrible Dialogue, Plot, and Believability
Summary: If you have seen Jaws (any of them), skip this shark film, which, to be honest, is funnier than it is scary or suspenseful. LL Cool J, Samuel L. Jackson star in a movie that tries to dazzle you with special effects and overlooks all plot and dialogue. ... read more

Pros: edge of your seater
Cons: a little hard to believe
Summary: This movie is sure to appeal to all you LL Cool J fans out there. You have to see it to believe it. The idea of 45 foot long thinking sharks was a little over the top but the nail biting suspense keeps you glued to the set. Not to mention the cute ... read more

Pros: Done with efficient lighting, not a lot of dark guessing scenes.
Cons: Kind of slow beginning, so one has to really has to stick with the movie at first
Summary: This movie caught my interest when it was previewed at the time the movie came out, and HBO ran a "How the Movie Was Made" segment. Yeah, "Jaws" scared the bageebees out of me, and I just wanted to see if this one could size up to ... read more
