This movie has a decent premise but not the best execution. War veterans with unfinished business fighting out a final battle in the woods long after their war is over. But unfortunately, the film plays itself out with these two guys going back and forth at each other after the first couple of exchanges. I'd say it goes off the rails towards the end of the second act and it just gets hard to believe their fight could be drawing out this long as they keep turning the tables on each other.
The climax ties the ridiculous action together a little bit with a sort of drawn out explanation of how they keep fighting with each other because they like it in their own way. It hints at the idea that there could have been a good movie in there as it wraps everything you just watched and couldn't really believe in a little fancy bow.
Unfortunately the plot, which funny enough is quite simple and straight forward, is just too absurd to believe.
The interesting moments saved this from being a terrible movie. But the action, the plot and the characters held it back from being a particularly good one. DeNiro and Travolta give passing grade mail in performances that work well enough for the story they were tasked with. But the dialogue was a little subpar.
Better options out there, but if you're bored on a Saturday night, it's not the worst thing you could watch.

This movie suffers from a lot of issues. It was like a big budget Hollywood war film with the annoying spirit of a Hallmark movie.
It started too early in the story and basically ended right when it was getting good. While the initial covert mission of the Indianapolis is highly relevant to history, the first half of the film is spent trying to build characters and set up the crew on the initial voyage to carry historically classified cargo. But the real drama ensued after the ship sank and the dust had settled. The trial of the captain, which is basically given a brief 20 minutes at the conclusion of the movie, is the most interesting and brings the most conflict.
The film would've been much more fascinating as a retelling of the story through the eyes of the court hearings through the captain's testimony and his crew. The relevant footage at sea from the mission and during the sinking could've been given its exposition there. It should've started with the classified mission and then fast-forwarded to the aftermath at the hearings where we could rehash the events through the scope of a wrongfully scapegoated Naval captain who was faced with no escort, improper equipment and a dangerous course.
The shark sequences are pretty cheesy but you don't need gory or eventful attacks to properly convey the fear and turmoil these poor boys went through. I think the film just struggled with trying to fit too many parts of the story in chronologically, which resulted in a dull pace that just made the whole thing messy and stiff by the time the ship went down. Add to that some really cringey character archetypes and storylines to paint an overly complete yet unsatisfying rendition of this historic event.
Somewhere in another dimension, there is an Oscar worthy version of this movie where they took the ingredients of this film and did it right. Unfortunately, all we really got outta this one was Nic Cage being Nic Cage. And they took it away from us and ended the movie right when he was starting to hit his stride.
It could've been good, should've been better, and pretty much ended where it should've been focused the whole movie. Too bad.

The Gorilla is likeable and has personality, the actors do a fair job with a cheesy script and it has a decent climax despite how conveniently the plot comes together.
Nobody is winning any awards for the acting in this but they do a good enough job to make you care at least a tiny bit about what's going on.
The CGI is actually decent. Don't get me wrong, it's clearly fake and computer generated, but I appreciate how they didn't do too much of the stupid physics defying, backflipping, over exaggerated stuff that most movies like this get carried away with. These animals have simply become aggressive, large and out of control. And they're depicted as such.
The destruction and chaos is believable (for what it is). The animals basically just climb, destroy and power through everything in their path without anything fancy.
There's a lot of action movie cliche and some of the plot points are pretty predictably contrived but it's sort of your standard Rock level action flick. Worth a watch but probably just that. You might revisit it in 20 years.
